Sunday night, a teenager put me in a headlock while her friend tried to take my purse.  I escaped unharmed and with my purse.  The officer who interviewed me said that believe it or not, I was one of the lucky ones.  I believed him (especially with all the shootings I kept hearing about on the radio).

Monday afternoon, I got hit by a car.  The ER doctors said that I was one of the lucky ones.  Then I told him about the attempted robbery less than 24 hours earlier.  He chuckled and said the coincidence was awesome.

I'm not sure words mean what people think they mean.
