Serendipity

        Dumb luck is one thing, but I’ve got a huge streak of it. It’s impressive enough that I’ve never been robbed, but I’m stunned that I actually lost something valuable and got it back. Being a meathead, I left my Visor handheld computer under a pile of newspapers on a train while coming back to London from Salisbury. I was pissed for awhile and made a mental not to try and track it down, but never got around to it. Finally, about a month after having lost the computer, I got around to calling the lost property department at the train station. A few minutes’ conversation later, they’d located my handheld and issued a reference number for me to pick it up. Three pounds and a short bike ride after work (even more dumb luck: train station’s lost property office was at a station closer to my work than the station where I’d lost the Visor) and I had my Visor back. In other fortunates, I had nearly the entire workday to surf the internet. On top of that, ended up finding a free comedy night that, unbelievable as this may sound, contained British humor that was actually funny! Yep, I have more than dumb luck: ludicrously lucky Luke in London:)
