interesting fact about this morning (1 Viewer)

[chriths]

Believe it or not, 8.02pm on February 20 this year will be an historic
moment in time.
It will not be marked by the chiming of any clocks or the ringing of bells,
but at that precise time,on that specific date, something will happen which
has not occurred for 1,001 years and will never happen again.
As the clock ticks over from 8.01pm on Wednesday, February 20,
time will,for sixty seconds only, read in perfect symmetry
2002, 2002, 2002, or to be more precise - 20:02, 20/02, 2002.

The last occasion that time read in such a symmetrical pattern
was long before the days of the digital watch and the 24-hour clock
at 10.01am on January 10, 1001.
And because the clock only goes up to 23.59, it is something
that will NEVER happen again.

Interesting fact about this morning:

Within about 0.75 of a second of awaking this morning, I thought up a joke. The whole thing just arrived, complete - requiring no reworking whatsoever.
I think it's brilliant, and I'm positive I've never heard it before.

Some distant acquaintances of mine are having a palindrome party tonight to celebrate the occasion... And to be pretentious, methinks...

What the hooer is a pallindrome party? Like, what do you do? You can hardly dress as a pallindrome.

 

[krystal]

you just stand around talking about kayak(s) a lot

 

[krystal]

and in order to be invited you have to be called anna or otto

boom boom!

 

[the mouth of the coldspoons]

[Stuart Little]

A palindrome party? And I wasn't invited?

Dammit, I'm mad!

I'm gonna drive over there in my Racecar and set a Party boobytrap.

 

[krystal]

[krystal]

[snakybus]

mundane...

ten animals i slam in a net....

or, the brilliant...

Did I strap red nude, red rump, also slap murdered underparts? I did!

 

[herv]

or this mammoth effort...


Do good? I? No! Evil anon I deliver. I maim nine more hero-men in Saginaw, sanitary sword a-tuck, Carol, I--lo!--rack, cut a drowsy rat in Aswan. I gas nine more hero-men in Miami. Reviled, I (Nona) live on. I do, O God!

 

[snakybus]

why even bother putting the anon and Nona bit in Herv? Neither of them make any sense.

Actually none of it makes any sense, forget I said that.
