Busy wedding day for numerologists.

My paper's front page story is about a kid who turns 9 today.

The writer even goes as far to say there's nothing significant about him, that he's a normal 9-year-old kid.

Waste of space and resources, IMHO, but I ain't the boss.

Appropo of nothing, but someone on SportsCenter this morning also pointed out that "Wednesday" and "September" also have nine letters in them.

I hate to say it, but people do read that ****.
 
So what happened on 9/9/99?

Did everyone's head explode or something? I missed it.

Everyone was freaking out over Y2K at that point.

This makes me wax nostalgic for 1:23:45 on 6.7.89!

Even better --- 12:34:56 on 7-8-90.

星期三 (Wednesday)
九月 (September)

1.3 billion Chinese say, "no they don't."

If it makes you feel any better, ESPN China's SportsCenter probably didn't include that tidbit.

Otherwise...obnoxious lack of a point.
 
The wife and I had our wedding reception on 7-7-07.

We booked the caterer six months in advance.
 
Reminds me I need to pick up a couple of this year's Stone Vertical Epic.

On purpose?

A ton of people did that, though. I remember hearing about Tony Parker maybe getting married to Eva what's her name on 7-7-07.

I was married three days later. I'm a rebel like that. :)

She knew who she wanted.

Three days after I proposed, she had the caterer, wedding location, honeymoon spot, villa, who was performing the wedding and a few other things all planned out.
