051111 [and, a link to 051112]

November 11, 2005January 16, 2017

UPDATE: Today’s column has been posted tomorrow, but, in an Einsteinian twist, can be accessed here.

You don’t see the numbers, but yesterday’s was my 2400th column in this space. And today’s is entered in the little machine my webmaster built for me years ago (thanks, Marc!) as “051111” for 2005-November-11.

I can’t wait for six years from now, when it’s “111111” — won’t that be cool?

You may think I’m leading up to taking a day off — 2400 is divisible by 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6, for heaven’s sake. And by 8, 10, 12, 15, 20, 24, 30, 40, 50, 60, and 80, for crying out loud. This is a big deal! It’s divisible by 100, 200, 300, 400, 500 and 600! (And, sure, 120 and who knows what else!)

But actually I have a bunch of things I hope to post before the day, or at least the weekend, is out. For now, though, please talk among yourselves.

Quote of the Day

"Midas called himself a happy man, but felt he was not yet quite so happy as he might be. The very tip-top of enjoyment would not be reached, unless the whole world were to become his treasure room, and be filled with yellow metal which should be all his own."

Nathaniel Hawthorne (King Midas and the Golden Touch)
