KJ - 2007-02-28

No, maybe not Fish; however, today, the 28th, may not be too bad. Stick the 28 together with the 2 and 7 in 2007 and you have 289 - considered lucky mostly in south east China and Hong Kong because the homophones come out to sound something like, "easy long time prosperity."

Also, thanks for giving me a curiosity kick. I learned a new word: Triskaidekaphobia - fear of the number 13. Yeah, I'm sure I'll remember that one.

Hope you enjoy the coming term. As for myself, my new schedule should be a little easier. No more 7:50AM classes and three consecutive days off. Yahoo!

By the way, since so many Brits drop the "h" in words like "hello," does that mean they'll say, for example, "I had an "ell of a good time." Never mind, please don't answer that.
