7-7-07

If this is the "luckiest day of the century" as one of the talking heads just said on the TV news, what will 7-7-77 be?

 

I'm buying 7 powerball tickets in a while.

 

Last night, I laid out page A1 of today's paper, 7-7-07. Our volume number, which we put at the bottom of our front page was, I kid you not, No. 77.

 

7-7-77 just happens to be Chris Redman's birthday. Chances are looking better for him that if he makes the Atlanta Falcons, he'll be able to wear the No. 7 jersey this year.

 

My birthday is June 6, and last year my b-day fell on 6-6-06. It was one of my best birthdays ever.

By the way, I'm Satan.

 

My bday is Sept. 9. so in 1999 I partied like it was 9-9-99.

 

My birthday is 5-17, so in a couple of thousand years I will party it up.

 

The PA Lottery shut down all sales of 777 and 7777, they reached their limit.

 

Nope, not wrong.

 

it was a TV guy that said it.

 

I'm trying to remember what it was last century and I can't... was it also the luckiest day of the century?
Just think how lucky people will be feeling 5770 years from now when the date will be 7/7/7777... unless by then we're using Star-Trekesque star dates and not normal month/day/year notations for dates.
