Yer, it is just straight out bizarre how we get clusters of these tragic happenings. The numerologists and other border-line believers might say there is some cosmic influence on all this - I have got no idea!
It has made me take stock and reflect on some close calls and divine intervention in my life. All those men were great in many ways and didn't deserve the hand dealt to them. It's a bloody tenuous grip we on this thing we call life.
