In a stall in the the office bathroom, I called Domino's and ordered a large thin-crust pizza, 1/2 pepperoni and 1/2 cheese, with extra cheese, for Jaye.
On the way back to my cubicle, Kevin called me over to his to look at a screenshot he had captured. Then, as he was looking through some folders for something else he wanted to show me, he accidentally clicked on an icon and said "Oh, that's Domino's". A preview of the Domino's logo appeared. He had been using it with some website he created.

Robert Anton Wilson
Right around the time of Robert Anton Wilson's death, I noticed two RAW-related coincidences. (RAW helped popularize the 23 Enigma and other synchronistic phenomena.)
- I was singing "Danny Boy" to Nyx one night. Jaye expressed surprise that I would do such a thing. I told her that the recently-deceased-RAW's website plays Danny Boy on the home page. Two days later we watched a rented movie in which a character sings that song.
- I was at a restaurant waiting for some wings-to-go, watching football on a flatscreen on a wall. I was remembering RAW commenting in one of his books on the cultural reasons why he was interested in living in outer space: something like, most of his fellow Americans seemed to like drinking beer and watching football, whereas he liked listening to the Hammerklavier stoned. Just then, the football announcer shouted "Out in Space!" -- I think referring to a receiver who was wide open.
