That's cool, but won't work in Europe I'm afraid....the date will be 08/07/09 - we put the day first, then the month.

I love numbers and when something like that happens it fascinates me. Thanks for sharing that little tidbit.

Ninnie 07-06-2009 11:23 AM

Hay, that is cool! I love knowing things like that!

Mary and Loretta - if you see 08/07/09 on a document, how do you know whether it is August 7th or July 8th? Is there any way of distinguishing? :?:

On second thoughts, I may have to last that long to get everything done on my list of things to do. (The bothering the progeny idea is good too). I have been looking forward to getting cantankerous in my old age!

butterflywing 07-07-2009 10:34 AM

it's not old age, silly. it's second childhood.

Lacelady 07-07-2009 12:57 PM

That's a relief, I was beginning to think it might be regression.

sandpat 07-07-2009 01:22 PM

Pats8e8 07-10-2009 09:59 AM

So did any or you stay up for it? I sure didn't. And don't think I will make the next one at all. LOL

Pats8e8 07-10-2009 09:59 AM

Oops, should be any of you.

Boston1954 07-12-2009 10:00 AM

I'm confused. Wouldn't it happen again in 2109?
