Seems I have seen this thread before but here goes:
I started working a job in here in Texas a few weeks ago. During a staff meeting I mentioned that I had been living in Mexico. One of my people asked where, what was I doing, etc. Seems his brother lives in Cabo. I thought "small town but..."
I asked his brother's name and before he could answer I immediately recognized the similarities and mannerisms. Not only do I know his brother but we worked at the same resort, on the same table, selling a specific client some real estate.
I know his brother very well!
Worth a chuckle.
Still, the best small world story I have is:
My buddy Smitty and I were in Malgrat de Mar, Spain in 1985 for two weeks. We were both statined in Scotland at the time. One night we met and harpooned these Danish whales back at our rented condo. They were visiting from Copenhagen that first week we were in Spain.
Nearly two years later, Smitty is stationed in Long Beach, Ca. on the USS New Jersey BB-62. His at a seriously hole-in-the-wall C&W bar called "The Hollywood".
From across the dance floor he hears "SCOTT, is dat yoooooooo?"
His hot hunka 90 kilo Danish love is right there. Onboard some Merchant Marine vessel.
REAL small world!
What do you lot have?
