We all have them. What's the weirdest coincidence that's ever happened to you?

I'm discounting all the family/friend coincidences I have had because they are far too common and numerous to mention. You might find this one kinda nuts, but never mind. I'm not professing that it means anything whatsoever - my common sense tells me that it's not a big deal. It's just a little odd.
The night of November 30th, 2001, I was sat up until 6am, quietly revising for an exam. At around 3 o'clock or so, the song 'My Sweet Lord' got into my head out of nowhere and drove me potty, playing on loop repeatedly for hours. (You can guess where this is leading!) I've always liked the song, but there was no reason for it to hijack my brain like this. I hadn't heard it for ages, nor seen/heard anything that may have sparked it off. I just couldn't get the damn thing out of my mind.
At 6ish I gave up and turned the TV on... to see that George Harrison had died that night. That was horrible. I also found out that he and I share the same birthday, which was cool. All in all, a bit strange.
Yesterday I started reading George's book 'I Me Mine'. At one point I put it down to do something, and when I came back found that the cat had knocked it off the couch. The book had fallen open at a random page. The page contained an image of handwritten song lyrics and the date he'd written it. The date was our shared birthday. The year on the page was the year I was born.
I was amused at this second Harrison related coincidence! Most peculiar! It made me smile.

The most simple answer is there are none of these happenings. weird coincidences are just that random chance and nothing more. It happens and it is natural. But the so called paranormal are either a result of a hyper-active imagination or lack of understanding of a persons surroundings. Of course metal state can have a lot to do with this. After my best friend died I felt his presence near me visibly and fully but I knew it was just my desire to see him. I didn't want to wake up because I wanted to stay with him. I know my mind wouldn't let me once the rush of reality set in. a mental visions can seem just as real as a physical event, the brain can trigger many wonderful things and sometimes those things are not real.

I was on holiday in France with my parents when I was about ten(I'm English by the way), when someone knocked on the villa door, she knew my name, and it turns out she used to work in the nursery in Durham I went to, she had moved to France five years before with her husband and was doing some local goverment questionaire or something. What are the chances?

Not me - But my mum went to Brussels (we live in England) - and it was the first time she had been there. Well she was walking along the street and she suddenly someone shouted her name - it was her best friend and college room mate from 20 years ago (she too still lived in England - not Belgium)- weird!!
