It'll be about thousand years before one can write a date like 12/12/12 again.
I think they're all backwards. When you add the twenty, then I am stuck in the middle. If you add them up then, it would seem to be somebody's age when they passed away? Just talking, I like numerology.
But only a couple years until we can write a date like 3/14/15.
If you like numerology then here's something to think about: when you add the digits in 12/12/12, you get 9, the highest single-digit number, the number of the teacher or of a day when there will be great lessons learned. If you add in the full year, you get 12/12/2012, with digits adding up to 11, one of the two master numbers. It stands for illumination, enlightenment and idealism. What will we learn today?
911 or if you multipy 12 times 3 is 36. I think yours is correct.
A thousand years? Why won't we be able to write December 12, 2112 as 12/12/12? That is a mere 1000 years away.
If you understand the History behind the drum, then you can acknowledge that the quote on Martin Luther Kings' monument is accurate. The drum was initially used as a means of prayer, in getting the attention of God and those in heaven. There is nothing arrogant about that statement.
The GOP is still living like there is no tomorrow. And I do not know what to say, but I want a tomorrow and a day after that.
Congratulations to Governor Otter of Idaho. His state will be better off among the red states, down the line - as will North Carolina, which is also an early adopter of Obamacare (under outgoing Democratic Governor Perdue).
There is so much news to comment on,where does 1 begin? My biggest thought rt. now is how under- handed those politicians acted reguarding the rt. to work law. i really need to know if the whole fiascal was legal? telling the people he chged his mind so they would leave the chambers thinking maybe a chance,but instead immediately went to work to undermind them by setting up to sign their lives away without an ounce of for-thaught and what the reprocutions were going to be for the people.it was a case of the worst betrayal and cowardly act i've ever heard in all my yrs.following politics. there were worst cases for diff. matters,but never this much blatant lack of the constitutions meaning and laws. i certainly hope this goes to court or have a investigation to why all of a sudden he changed his mind after running on the premise that he had no concern for the matter.and the people put him in office.1 case of no confidence i've seen since the last 15 yrs! good luck MICHIGAN!
Here's hoping a conversation gets started about fixing some of the problems associated with Unions. 1) Taking up substantial amounts of managements time in disciplinary hearings for sub-par performing employees. Dues for no apparent return in a financially struggling working class. Shop stewards who don't do anything for the members. If Unions can take a hard look at their performance and make significant changes, then I think more people wouldl be willing to support them. God knows that with the Republican Administrations, the working class people need someone to stand up for them! If Unions cannot adapt and change we are headed back to the J. Steinbeck novel, The Grapes of Wrath.
Government jobs are union jobs,,, $900,000. to chip off 2 square feet of stone...
Teacher unions are different than the labor unions you describe. Won't do analysis here -- but do you think they are less important to society than police and firefighters? (Teachers take it in the ear gain!)
only 9 more days left for Obama to take away our guuuns.....
uh what's the next end of the world date after the Dec 21 end of the world?
