Happy 09-09-09!

I would like to say.....

HAPPY BIRTHDAY JORDAN!!

My Big Brother turns the big 3-0 today! A few sayings I came across for those turning 30...

"When you turn thirty, a whole new thing happens. You see yourself acting like your parents." - Blair Sabol

"The only time you really live fully is from thirty to sixty. The young are slaves to dreams; the old servants of regrets. Only the middle-aged have all their five senses in the keeping of their wits." - Hervey Allen

"At the age of twenty, we don't care what the world thinks of us; at thirty, we worry about what it is thinking of us; at forty, we discover that it wasn't thinking of us at all." - Anonymous

"Just remember, once you're over the hill you begin to pick up speed." - Charles Schulz

Also Happy 09-09-09!! (p.s. this was the 9th color to choose from!)

  • The date represents the last set of repeating, single digit dates that we will see for almost a century (until January 1, 2101)!
  • The number nine in some cultures is lucky.
  • The number nine is also associated with forgiveness, compassion and success, as well as arrogance and self-righteousness according to numerologists.
  • The date falls on a Wednesday in September, both of which have 9 letters.
  • The sum of the two-digits resulting from nine multiplied by any other single-digit number will equal nine. So 9x3=27, and 2+7=9.
  • Multiply nine by any two, three or four-digit number and the sums of those will also break down to nine. For example: 9x62 = 558; 5+5+8=18; 1+8=9.
  • Sept. 9 also happens to be the 252nd day of the year (2 + 5 +2) = ?
  • More than most, baseball is a game steeped in nines: nine players on the field at one time, nine innings, 90 feet between bases and nine strikes per inning.

Who loves the number 9!!
