subject: Unusual Dates




This year we will experience 4 unusual dates.... 1/1/11, 1/11/11, 11/1/11, 11/11/11 .........


NOW go figure this out.... take the last 2 digits of the year you were born plus the age you will be this year and it WILL EQUAL .... 111

THIS IS SO STRANGE......NO MATTER HOW U DO IT ........ ITS 111.....

wow.... this one stumped me, but it is true I was born in 56 and I'm going to be 55 years old. How does that work for everyone?

Dont know how it works for everyone but it does.. My DGD showed me this the other day. Its so amazing how everyone comes out 111.
Try it and see, its neat!!:)

Well, technically, it doesn't work for EVERYONE, because I just did my two kids ages, and they only add up to 11. :) I think your age has to be in the double digits for it to add up to 111.

Saw this just last week. We had fun with it.
Thanks for sharing here!

Ha! I'm 21 this year and I was born in 1965 so it doesn't work for me! :mrgreen: :lol:

You have to be at least twelve years old this year for it to work - - how interesting - - although .... as I am thinking about it ...
I am thinking about Scriptures and natural law here.... as I understand it, the Jewish law from the Old Testament basically moves the individual to perceive nature around them to gain spiritual truth ...
I am not Jewish, but maybe someone here can tell us if there is something significant that occurs within the individual at age twelve?
And, I do know that 12 is a significant number throughout the Bible - - I don't go into numerology as a fortune telling thing, but consistent numbers mean something to God .... very interesting ...
I guess you have like numbers to pay much attention to the things I entertain myself with, huh? LOL (or have an extremely tiny little life <g>) <wave>

LOL .... you were faster than me! I was all over that 21 this year thing and was sitting there going "WOW! She is pretty amazing for someone that is only 21 years old!" I was starting to go through her family history and going to do thorough research to find out how at 21 she could be so -- well, whatever the good things you can say - - I just always thought she was a bit older than 21.
I stopped my mental gymnastics for a bit to go find a pencil and paper to do some math (because I misunderstood what Miss Feline said) ... and, then, I thought - - well, it HAS to be some math problem between the year she was born and ...... DUH! ROFLOL ...
I was almost convinced I would have to give up my theory or something! HAH!
**** deep breath <sigh>**** theory back on track, she is NOT 21 years old, and I don't have to do any math to figure out whether it works or not (and, frankly - - I still don't know how old she is .... I think k3n is pretty cool!) LOL <wave>
