Nerds the world over are reveling in the fact that today, 5/7/09, is the third of 6 days this century in which the date happens to be made of three odd numbers that are also numerically consecutive. The previous two in this century would have been 1/3/05 and 3/5/07 and the last one prior to that, in the 20th century, would have been 11/13/15, or November 13, 1915. Got that? Yeah, anyway, we suppose this is actually just an American nerd obsession, because in Europe they reverse the month and the day and the shit just wouldn't be the same. Anyway, you can learn more about it here, and possibly win a $579 prize for being the biggest nerd on your block if you write an Odd Ode or have an award-winning Odd Celebration.

5/7/09 is nice and all for being odd number day, but it really pales compared to 1/3/05 or 3/5/07 which are even cooler for being prime number days.
BORING
The sky is blue, let's celebrate!
It's also Doug Benson's birthday today!
And here I thought that internet porn created enough of a distraction to keep these nerds busy.
I'm celebrating tomorrow. Cuz, ya know, it will be 5/8/09. And that hasn't happened for a hundred years; and won't for another hundred.
and if you try hard enough, you can make it add up to 23
This is all true if you use the baby Jesus calendar. I use a calendar that starts the day I was born because I am the only life in the universe and you people are just avatars in a cosmic video game.
