Do we have many stories of weird things happening? I don't neccesarily mean ghostly occurences or strange lights in the sky, rather I am thinking of more mundane but still bizarre perceptions and observations. I would really love to hear your stories. Here are a couple of examples of mine.
When I was very young, one Christmas I was given a rolling, talking, flashing, miniature toy robot like the old Lost in Space TV series bot. After I went to sleep, my dad, or maybe my grandfather, turned the robot on and came in and put it on my bed. I woke to a robot attacking me! Being half asleep I couldn't figure out what in the heck I was seeing. I got up really, really quickly.
Okay, this is a really strange one. I swear that to the best of my knowledge every word is true. I have no explanations. I could swear that I lost half of a large cup of coffee to the aether. This was so weird... I was attending a physics lecture at the UofO and picked up a friend who was interested. This was part of a guest lecturer series for the public so the event was held at night. It was going to be a long evening and I had taken a really tall cup [travel cup but no lid] filled to about 75% with coffee. When we parked , I looked at my cup, and being about half full I carefully place the cup on the floor. We went on into the lecture.
When we returned to the car it was dark and I forgot all about the cup. I drove Bill home and as we pulled into his driveway, I remembered the coffee. Crud! Now I have about 12 oz of coffee on the floor. I asked bill to get a flashlight and some rags so I could clean up the mess. When we looked, there was no mess. The coffee cup was lying under the seat but no moisture was found anywhere. I must assume that Bill was playing games, but honestly, I don't see how he could have been. He really didn't have the opportunity. In fact he didn't even see where I put the cup. He couldn't have seen it in the dark.
As if this isn't weird enough...I almost hate to tell you...the lecturer was Paul Davies. Less one other experience that Tsu and I both had, this was the strangest thing I have ever experienced. I'm not making any claims but I have no idea what happened.
