Your eerie coincidence for today

There are more things in heaven and earth than are dreamt of in your philosophy, Hamlet once told us. Which I suppose was the melancholy Dane's way of saying there is some weird s*** goin' on out there in the cosmos, brother, and that's just the home truth of it.

Example: Yesterday in New York.

Where the New York Mets were playing a baseball game at home on the 18th anniversary of 9/11, and doing it rather well. The baseball gods have not always been kind to the Mets this season, although lately they've been on something of a tear. So no real surprise they got the Arizona Diamondbacks in town on this most evocative of dates in New York, and spanked them roundly.

The final score: Mets 9, Diamondbacks 0.

Number of hits the Mets put up: 11.

And so, on 9/11, the Mets linescore read 9-11-0.

Something mystical this way comes, methinks.
