Coincidence, or....?!

Lately, I've been noticing some creepy stuff.

In the year 2000, I visited New York City. While there, I visited the WTC towers and looked down from one from a dizzying height. Less than a year later, those very same towers had fallen victim to a brutal and senseless terrorist attack.

In 1992, I visited Prague. For several days, I explored the old center and strolled along the beautiful Vltava river. One decade later, that very river is experiencing its worst floods in a century. The old center is hit hardest.

Am I the only one seeing a pattern here?
