... and Yahoo News at the same time

Houdini
Today’s Google Doodle, freshly patented, honors Harry Houdini, history’s most famous magician and escape artist, on the 137th anniversary of his birth.

Meanwhile, an Associated Press story on Yahoo News reports the death at age 103 of Dorothy Young, who until her demise had been Houdini’s last surviving stage assistant.

Coincidence?

Houdini would want you to believe so.
