[QUOTE="Winterthorn, post: 983192, member: 1702"] Premonition? Déjà vu? Or mere coincidence? I recently started work in downtown Ottawa, and, on my lunch break today, I walked over to my FLGS, called Fandom II, thinking along the way that it would be odd to bump into Hellhound and/or Dextra there. I don't know why this thought entered my mind. It just did... Inside the store I was looking at new d20 products, and I heard behind me another customer walk in. They greeted the store clerk and mentioned something about just coming back from "Origins". I thought, "Okay, someone was fortunate to go and had something to share with the store staff about it". I glanced over my shoulder--and for some reason I thought I knew the person--couldn't remember--was it indeed Jason Parent? (I still wasn't sure as I never met Hellhound in person before.) After I was browsing in the store a while, JP introduced himself to me as he saw me looking at a copy of Unveiled Masters. [i]So it was indeed him![/i] His two daughters were there too--but I apparently missed meeting Dextra as I had to return to the office. (Seeya next time, Dextra! :) ) So, Hellhound, if you happen to read this, it was a pleasure to meet you and your daughters! :D The really weird thing was, and I forgot to mention this to JP at the time, I had this clear notion enter my head about encountering him at the store only moments before crossing the street getting there. How come? There was [i]no[/i] reason for me to expect to. Why did the thought even enter my head? I've been to that FLGS many times before--never ever thinking I'd bump into any publisher in person. So why would I think this, on the same day I actually do, only minutes beforehand? **start Twilight Zone track** Maybe there are many copies of Hellhound walking around the world now--ever increasing their numbers through binary fission! . . . Maybe I need "medication".... :confused: :eek: :confused: :eek: :confused: :eek: -W, ;) LOL [/QUOTE]
