Coincidence - Small World Edition

Life's little coincidences continue to amaze me.  This week's example...

I know a total of two gents who drive trains for a living (one is LJ's own [livejournal.com profile] cuboz). 

Both are gay.  And if I may say so, both are charming handsome men.

I met them independently of one another.  Meetings were years apart.

Both live in Sydney, Australia.

I learned that they, in fact, know one another.


The statistical probability of this coincidental association is vanishingly tiny.  I say it again... amazing.

Or maybe I just like trains...

Nah. You like trains, and you like gay guys who drive trains, and you like charming handsome gay guys who drive trains. ;-)

"Who is the other one!!!?"

Heh, heh, that's for me to know and you to beg, er, find out!

You are also quite handsome, sir. Now none of that false modesty!
