With the previous post (see its addendum), I am reminded of an earlier coincidence that occurred some thirty years ago.
I once had a surprising coincidence alphabetically looking up a word in the dictionary, when I chance to happen on another I didn’t know. It caught my curious eye while I was also turning on the TV set, and waiting for it to warm up. As I was reading the definition of the second word, I could hear the voice of Porky Pig on the tele, reprimanding a terrified Sylvester the cat*. “You eb, eb, pol-troon of a chicken cat, you!’ “Poltroon” was the very entry before me!
Here is the line as delivered by Porky (voiced by Mel Blanc): "Th-Th... That's all, folks!"
