I was just reading on Yahoo that at 1:02 and 3 seconds in the am we will have a statistical oddity...for those in the US that shorten the year to 06 and the clocks that show the year as 2 numbers (instead of 2006) will all read this at the time noted above...
01:02:03 04-05-06
pretty cool huh!
Just thought it was worth mentioning.

We really need to get you better toys or at the very least... a tickle date. You have way too much time on your hands for thinking. This sounds like some of the shit I come up with in the wee hours when there's nothing on but infomercials.

Well I for one love these totally useless and inane inane statistical oddities.
Then again, I also need a tickle date.

They just mentioned this on the news at 11pm tonight, and said it will not occur again for another 100 years. It is rather interesting, and pretty cool that we are able to see it.

Tamia, are you getting sleepy, yet? Are you thinking about billowy white clouds carrying you off to slumberland, to dream of floating on a bed of flowers down a calm and peaceful river? *snicker*
