"Trust me, you're not schizophrenic!" Then, I turned to see who just said that (it was a woman talking, it appeared, to herself) and she then added, "I can't talk now. This is too embarrassing for me."

Creepy!!!! Was this the bus or the train? I asked because buses usually stop more frequently, so you can escape easier.

Someone said she still cared while I was on the cell driving to work (bizarre enough for me). Then my roommate started yelling while I was on the phone, looked up, and a dodge truck hit a telephone pole in the rain 50 feet from us. That was an interesting noise.

I went to the bank and overheard 2 clerks who were at the window to the left of the one I was at talking about a party they were at. 1 apparently can't remember it at all. It's not much but that's the only place I went today. I was the only customer in the bank at the time so that's probably why they felt it was ok to talk lol.

The most odd thing I heard today was the resident whiner at work saying in a somewhat sarcastic way that he should do something [whatever it was] today because he might be dead Friday. (been more of an annoying day than an interesting one, but that's normal).

The first interesting thing I heard today, via 5 Live Breakfast show in the UK, was that basketball coaches, when picking future tall players from amongst groups of pre-teen boys, look at the mother of a prospective candidate! If she's tall, say 5'11", then her son will be taller than her and useful for training as a player.
I didn't know that boys never end up smaller than their mothers!

Ellen van Wolde, Professor Exegesis of the Old Testament from the Radboud University in the Netherlands, found out that the first sentence in the bible isn't correct. The first sentence is: "In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth" but it should be "In the beginning God separated the heaven and the earth". The word 'bara' is misinterptreted according to Wolde. She will publish the article next week in the Journal of the Study of the Old Testament.
