I went to the convenience store last Saturday to get a can of sweet tea.
While waiting to pay. I glanced at the penny kitty and saw a silver coin.
I picked it up to examine it, and it was a Venezuelan coin. I asked the clerk if I could keep it, and he said sure (I collect coins).
A little while ago, I was reading the news on-line and saw that Bolivar Peninsula was pretty much wiped off during Hurricane Ike on Saturday.
I glanced over and saw the Venezuelan coin I picked up Saturday.
Face value: 1 Bolivar.

3. I'm sure some here will say karma |
|
If so, karma works in reverse (punishment before the crime?).
I had never seen a Venezuelan coin before, not a common occurrence in Boston, I'll tell you that.
I'm still a bit spooked.

2. Keep your hands off the state quarters. |
|
Who knows what will happen otherwise?
Here's a freaky coincidence in my life. I was working for a municipal agency, preparing reports to the state. I jokingly said to a friend that if Mr. "State Official" would drop dead my workload would be a lot easier. Two days later...there was the news of his passing.

worth about $25 in perfect condition.

PS: Last year I went to have my heart checked because I was having chest pains.
They did the whole cathetherization and my heart was fine; no blockage.
My doctor, however, keeled over from a heart attack in the office.
