Five years ago, I told my wife that I wanted a new smartphone. On the same day, I went swimming with my old phone in my pocket. Of course, it stopped working, and I had a good reason to get a new one. Last week, the same thing happened. My daughter changed her cell phone company and got a new phone for less money. I wanted to do the same, but I couldn’t decide when to do it. Then, on Saturday morning, my old phone suddenly stopped working. I had a good reason to get a new one. Once again, thanks to fate, I have the phone I want. (by Prof. Douglas Jarrell)
