Greetings!: Check Today's Date

Welcome to my blog, or should I say to the ramblings of an old man. I doubt that my ramblings are of much value, but at least I have an opportunity to share them. So, please be kind and humor me. If nothing else of value stands out in these thoughts, I hope that you at least sense the value I place on a daily walk with the Lord. That walk is what has provided me with motivation and a sense of purpose throughout my lifetime. My prayer is that you, too, are experiencing this direction and joy in daily living which is available to everyone who puts his trust in Christ. So, thanks again for joining me. Please don't go without leaving some comments here so I can get to know you better as our paths intersect today in this blog.

Check Today's Date

I just noticed something that I find interesting. Do you see anything unusual about today's date? Now just humor me a little. Remember I am a retired math teacher. I think a date like today's will only happen twice more in this century. If you still don't see it, let me help you with a hint. It will happen again next year and once more the following year. Have it now? Still don't know? Then try writing out today's date. Certainly you see it now. Oh yes, by writing it out remember that as a math teacher I mean just using the numerals, not English. And, just use the last two digits of the year. Now you must see it ... 10/10/10. And it will happen again next year on 11/11/11 and once more on 12/12/12. Then that will be the last time it happens in my lifetime ... and in yours! Have a great 10/10/10!
