True story

Here's a story for you.

A friend of mine used to live in an apartment in downtown Calgary. His name is Jonathan (last name removed to protect his privacy). One day he decided to move and the landlord went and found a new renter. The landlord came to visit one day and announced that they had found a new renter with the same last name and the first name Jan. This was cool because it meant the landlord wouldn't have to change the name plate beside the buzzer for that apartment (which had the first initial - still a 'J' and the same last name).

Before moving out of the apartment, Jonathan called a local pizza joint to order a pizza. When he gave his address, the girl on the phone said, "Holy shit! That's the address I'm moving to in a few weeks". So Jonathan had purely by chance called the person who would be moving into his apartment with the same first initial and the same last name.

Spooky huh?
