<\/a><\/div>\n

Most of us know who these two guys are right? Jeff Bridges and Robert Duval. It’s a scene from Crazy Heart, <\/i>for which Bridges won a well-deserved Oscar. There’s a scene in the movie where we see <\/i>the door of the motel room where Bridges is staying – #27.  I suddenly sat up straighter, “There it is! The 27 Club,” I exclaimed.<\/p>\n

Megan, who was watching the movie with us, looked over with that college expression – a roll of the eyes, brows lifting slightly. “What’re you talking about, mom?”<\/p>\n

27 is a number so well known among musicians that it’s referred to as The 27 Club. Kurt Cobain, Jimi Hendrix, Janis Joplin, Jim Morrison, and Brian Jones  died at age 27. We wrote about this in our book, under the clusters chapter, The 27 Club<\/i>.  But just because it appeared in  Crazy Heart<\/i>, is it a synchronicity? Probably not. Crazy Heart<\/i> is based on a novel by Thomas Cobb. Cobb is now a professor of creative writing and literature at Rhode Island College. But Cobb used to be a country music writer and it’s likely that he knew about  the synchronicity of #27. Maybe it was included in the movie as an inside joke.<\/p>\n

Then again, would a producer go to the trouble of creating #27 for a motel room door or hunt down an appropriate door with that number on it, just to please the novelist? Or, did the novelist actually know the history of #27? That’s the mystery.
 Are these inside jokes more common than we realize or are they actual synchros? In the short-lived TV series FlashForward, <\/i>nearly everyone in the world blanks out for 137 seconds and glimpses his or her future. 137, which we wrote about in a synchro<\/a> last year, could be another insider joke. Novelist Robert Sawyer might have known about that number and its connection to physicist Wolfgang Pauli, who considered it as a death number. Then again, maybe he didn’t know about it.<\/p>\n

Another instance of  a possible insider’s joke involves the number 23. There’s a considerable amount of data about this number,which we wrote about here<\/a>, and which crops up time and again in the TV series Lost. <\/i>But was the inference intentional or accidental?<\/p>\n

The real mystery about number clusters is whether the story creator knows about the synchro data.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
