Anyway, we're pattern-finding devices, so we're bound to see these coincidences all over the place. 911 is the name of the Emergancy Services in the States (a spell error on my part but I'm going to leave it in, seems relevant). 911 is the way the numbers fall in the odd series, 1, 3, 5, 7, 9, 11, 13... and so on. We're bound (by limited options) to be haunted by our own paranoia. Right?
But this one, from a Dutch site called QFF, is just about the most gorgeous coincidence this blogger's ever come across in this field of 'pattern matching an atrocity to the creative process'. Here's a link to a Bing Translation of the site:
So, you see the album cover, it's Supertramp's Breakfast in America - released in 1979 - an Album I loved at the time; and I've always appreciated the New York Skyline breakfast table parody of the cover. Seriously, that was a formative period in my life. But then ... someone's spotted an amazing 9/11 relevance. This is a good one.
Supertramp's Breakfast in America
Remember, also that the September 11th attack happened in the morning, when you have breakfast, and then notice what you see when you FLIP the album cover ....

Made me laugh, too.
