My wife and I recently moved and have been slowly meeting neighbors as we see them outside. We had each "met" our neighbors directly behind us at separate times and thought they were pretty nice...plus they are closer to our age than the others we had met. Long story short...we went with them to an Irish pub for St. Patrick's Day for some Guiness (no green beer here) and chit chat. First, their names are Rob & Kelly...ours are John and Kelly (no biggie). I find by talking to Rob that he had just started an online biz that went live in January this year...decided to take it full time and now works from home, which leads us into some Fastlane speak as I tell him about the E-biz I'm working on. Then we find out that they got married on THE same date as my wife and I, although a year later. Weird. More things in common came out of the conversations...memory has escaped me for now.
You kinda had to be there to get the full effect, but it sure is nice to be able to talk to someone who is on the same mental wavelength as we are for once.
It's also neat how quickly you can 'click' with people you are meeting for the first time when there is immediate common ground (literally in our case, as well).
