I know. Seems like it means something... but there’s no way to know exactly what!

Probably less than John Adams and Thomas Jefferson both dying om 4th of July of the same year, but pretty long.

Same odds as John Adams and Thomas Jefferson both passing on the 50th anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence?

Or, the same odds as my 5 YO grandson affixing the decals of the Broncos and Panthers to the back of his tablet...about 3 months ago?

Or the same odds as my son's 8th grade team losing by 5 in the consolation game on Saturday, while being outshot 26-0 in free throws? If I never set foot in Southlake, TX ever again, it won't be soon enough. lol

In hindsight, 100%, 1:1.

With foresight, it depends how far back you go to take your view. Say a year ago, each likely had a life expectancy of 20 years or less, so the worst case is 1:7200 or so.

About the same as Thomas Jefferson and John Adams passing away on the same day.

The whole Rock and Roll generation is goin’ down one at a time, I tell ya!(The ones who lived past age 27, anyway.)

At least this week we won’t have to suffer through any more from the Eagles or from the marginally talented Bowie, lol.
