I was heading to Memphis with my wife and another couple on a Saturday.  We were going to the zoo.  On the way we were playing a car trip game where we look for words on signs, bumper stickers, buildings, vehicles, etc., that start with each letter of the alphabet.  We got to 'i' pretty quickly, and were stuck on 'j' for about an hour.  We were going crazy, and just about to give up, when the other guy said "Good Lord when are we going to find a J!"  Just then he saw a billboard around a tree that said "Jesus Saves," which literally saved us from our suffering at not finding a J word.  That was about the funniest thing that happened all day.  After the zoo, we went to Beale Street to find some food.  There is some of the best BBQ in the world down in Memphis, and the others chose to eat at Hard Rock Cafe (I was outvoted).  Just when a billboard made Jesus almost seem a reality, the Hard Rock Cafe broought me back down to Earth.  If there was a God, I would have had some insanely awesome BBQ that day.

If Heaven did exist it would be full of great BBQ. I'm sorry you didn't get to enjoy any that day. I made homemade pulled pork a couple days ago. Sweet, sweet Q.

Many times when something bad is about to happen, I seriously feel it. This is sort of a weird and depressing story but here goes. Once, I was listening to Stone Temple Pilot's Interstate Love Song and I just knew that the next time I'd be listening to it, something bad would have occured. A couple of minutes later, I heard my mom's car pull up in the driveway. I met her at the front door and realized that she had dialed 911 because her "ex-boyfriend" or whatever he was had poked holes in her tires and had stalked her all the way from a party to our house. After the cops left and everything, I went back to my room to listen to Interstate Love Song again. I think it might be normal because I once heard Anderson Cooper and Yoko Uno talking about how they had similar experiences but I absolutely hate it because it happens more often than I would like it to and usually, there's nothing I can do about it. My mom also has had similar experiences, including dreams that become reality. All I know is that I have no idea what is going on.  :hmm:
