I've got an even better "what are the odds?" story.
My sister-in-law works as a nuclear med tech in a hospital. She has now met two different women who got pregnant after both they and their respective partners were surgically sterilized. And it wasn't a "we had sex too soon after the procedure" type event. Both women got pregnant years after the fact. One of the women jokingly refers to her youngest child as their miracle baby.
If that doesn't hammer home the point that nothing short of abstinence is foolproof, I don't know what will.
