3/6/2017: yogi

I see a tweet with a pic of an old man who reminds me of famous baseball player, Yogi Berra. Yogi died two years ago in 2015 and also happened to live in Montclair NJ, the town I graduated high school.

The “kinda” Yogi:

Actual Yogi:

A few hours later, THE SAME DAY, this tweet comes in:

This is a guy (Yogi) who was rarely is in the media/press for 20+ years because he was so old. Plus, HE DIED 2 YEARS AGO. The point is, he shouldn’t even be showing up in anything.

This is happening on purpose simply because I thought of him when I saw that other guy. The simple act of thinking of someone seems to brings these people/beings (or at least AI representations of them) back to life.

(REMINDER: I only follow between 5-20 (usually around 10) twitter accounts at any given time, out of over 300 million active users. The statistical probability of these kinds of syncs happening randomly, and on a regular basis like they do, is infinitesimal. They are happening on purpose.)
