Encounters of the stranger and stranger kind

Roro and Mr B------ came back to my house after the Matrix movie and we sat around for a while, sitting around, eating pizza and talking to my parents.

"Did I tell you I ran into (Best Friend from Elementary School) at work?" I asked my mom.

"Yes, you did," she explained. "What's she doing now?"

"I don't know. I guess she's going to travel somewhere sometime." We fell silent.

Quite unexpectedly, Mr B------ piped up. "BFfES? She just graduated in the spring and she left this week to travel around Europe."

We turned and stared at him for a while. What the hell was he talking about? He doesn't even know BFfES. Was he just trying to join in our conversation by making things up?

Apparently not. It turns out that he dated BFfES' best friend as an undergrad and has more up-to-date information about her than any of the rest of us. If I hadn't tried to repeat the story to my mom, he never would have realized that BFfES was the person I'd run into at work. This is such an insane mutant small-world situation.
