NUMBERS: Have fun with these

| December 19, 2014 8:00 PM

Here’s something to think over. I saw the picture of the little girl who had her 11th birthday on 12/13/14. I have an interesting birthday…I think. I was born on 1/9/38 — translates to 1938, right? The following year, my birthday was on 1/9/39 — translates 1939. Go year by year and each year for the rest of the 1900s, my birthday continued that sequence; 1/9/40 etc., up to 1/9/99 — 1999. No other century can have that, to my knowledge. Anyone born on Jan. 9, in the 1900s can say the same. Takes a little thought sometimes.

Just musing.
