when the numbers work out

[adelaidesean]

Room number in Denver = 2305 = my birthday + all sorts of Robert Anton Wilson references

Visitor badge at NORAD = 66 = one digit short of the Beast + first two digits of my postal address + last two digits of my mobile number

I don't know why stuff like this pleases me so much. I mean, I know it doesn't signify anything real, but still I feel a kind of glee. Could it be a wiring problem? Or is it found art for maths nerds?

(The street address of my home is 3 to the 3rd power = the number of books I have in print as of today.)

Bravo! That really is cool. And its *so* close to being a palindrome too.

It occured to me in cataloguing class. Cataloguing class was *REALLY* boring.

I can't begin to imagine. More boring than Accounting I (which I endured in 1987)?

Possibly. cataloguing is interesting when doing it, but the theory is deadly....

Mind you, Accounting would have killed me.

Accounting, I suspect, is the exact reverse.

I actually did quite well at it. All those numbers--so many possibilities...
