When I was negotiating my package at the company I currently work for, I asked that I have my phone extension be either "5513" or "1680"...KIDDING but that would have been great. Unfortunately my phone extension is "7244".

Funny you say that, I've had "signs" like this drive the point home that I need a certain watch, for example prior to my acquiring my premoon speedmaster , by chance I happened to stay in hotel room number "321". When on my quest for a 1680 sub, I noticed on my commute, the emergency AM radio station was "1680". Now, my phone extension is telling me I need a Milsub... so long as Stephanie doesn't call me, I'll be ok with a non split reference 5513/5517 so it shouldn't break the bank

I once had to follow my brother in law in rental cars for a week around town. The license plate had LEC in it... It's all I thought about every time I saw it

I see stuff like that all the time and wonder if I'm the only one who does that.
