Numerology

Post by AlanMiller »

I awoke this morning realizing it was a magical date - 10/10/10. I looked at the clock and it said 10:10! I knew this must be significant and looked at the racing form guide. I saw that Horse 10 in Race 10 had odds of 10:1! I dashed out to the betting shop and placed $10 each way on horse 10 - race 10. And guess what? It ran tenth.

October is a magical month in another way: This October has five Fridays, five Saturdays, and five Sundays, all in one month.

It happens once every 823 :time: years (or so I'm told :whisper: ).
