Thoughts are where Babies come from.

I'm Vacationing in FL this weekend so I decided to share with you guys a odd, jaw dropping coincidence that occurred on my way down.

I was sitting on my JetBlue flight from NJ to FL with my father and as the plane was taking off I had a strange thought come to me. I turned to my dad and asked "What if a woman gave birth mid-flight?" My dad jokes a lot and he knew I was joking. And I figure no woman would be flying that close to birth, but it raised several questions in my head. Would they charge an extra seat? If they were full would they ask someone to move to the bathroom stall? What state is she born in?

Now to the jaw dropping situation, a mere hour later thanks to the TV built in to the seats of JetBlue, I saw this n the news: http://www.suntimes.com/news/metro/1921607,baby-born-birth-flight-midway-120409.article

My jaw was on the ground for literally 5 minutes before I picked it back up, my dad just looked at me, we both sat there absorbing this rather curious and coincidental moment.

This is a weird world we live in.
