LTP: 12:00 on 12/12/12

Today is 12/12/12, and this post is going up at 12:00 in my time zone. It’s the last time in our lifetime that the date will repeat like that (unless by some miracle of future medicine any of us live to see January 1, 2101, but I kinda doubt I’m making it to 122 years old).

Do you have a favorite or lucky number? In my elementary school classes, we were assigned numbers alphabetically and for a few years running I wound up being #18, so I have a bit of a soft spot for it.

Thanks for rating this! Now tell the world how you feel via Twitter.

    I’ve always been partial to the number 9, probably because my birthday is 9-9 :)

    Well 42 is always a winner, and yes, I’ll admit I use 420 a lot (or 820, because, why wait?), but my favorite number is always going to be 13. Poor baby gets so much bad press.

    (A close second is badass 7. I’ll assume everyone knows the joke :-)
