Coincidence?

Today was comma day in class. Always thrilling for everyone involved, I'm sure. I started off easy with commas in dates and places, and the examples I used were sentences that describe Jack being born on May 17, 1999, in Provo, Utah, and Roger being born on 17 May 1963 in Provo, Utah.

I told my students it's a true story, and one of them asked, "Were they delivered by the same doctor?"

LOL, no. But Jack was actually delivered by the very doctor I had gone to several years previously in an attempt to figure out why I wasn't getting pregnant. The fertility gods move in mysterious ways.
