Short story. Have a colleague who has seen me perform and really enjoys my performances. The other night he wanted me to come out to a bar with his friends to do some material. He texted me and asked about meeting up. My text back said something like "do you want me to meet Terrance". I meant to say do you want me to meet THERE" But auto spell made it come out Terrance.

Well the response was "How did you know Terrance was here? You don't know Terrance?" Well, I got incredibly lucky and I played it up for everything it was worth. They are still talking about it and some have turned on each other accusing one another of spying for me.

There was a time when something like this would have bothered me because it is not repeatable. What I have learned is that with odds and statistics, etc---opportunities like this present themselves everyday and to the spectator it is just as real as something repeatable.
