9-11 (am/pm)
Since the attrocity of the twin towers terrorist attack I have noticed that when I look at my watch/clocks etc the time seems to be 9-11 on a disproportionate number of occasions.
Now I don't posit any 'supernatural' explanation for this - I work late and often rise around nine, perhaps I glance at the clock etc many hundreds of times subconciously and only ever register the 9-11 occurences - there are many possible explanations that would work, but the fact remains. (Why do I not register 7/7 occurences in the same way is a side issue.)
I just wondered if anybody else has noticed this effect. One thing it has the very positive result of, is to keep the tragedy for the World that was 9-11 firmly focused in my mind along with the people who we all lost on that terrible day.

I think you've got it figured out already. The other times simply aren't memorable.

The catholic church is the largest pro-pedophillia group in the world, and every member of it is guilty of supporting the rape of children, the ensuing protection of the rapists, and the continuing suffering of the victims.

My daughter kind of drove me nuts with this for a few years. We would usually be driving in the car and she would notice the digital clock said 9:11 or 2:11 or 11:11 and announce it like it was a big deal.
We had the same conversation about why it "always" seemed to be 9:11 and we came to the same kind of conclusions you did, Peter.

My kids used to notice 7:11 all the time, after we moved out of a townhouse with that house number. (Always good for a laugh, when a neighbor would ask where we lived: "We live at 7-11!"
)

Now, if you start seeing messages from the Universe in the number patterns you see, you should probably seek professional help.

My brother and I have an inside joke about Magic Clocks for this exact reason. Actually, I'm so surprised to read this here I texted your post to him, just to blow his mind, haha

I glanced at my cell this morning, and it was 9:11.
