1mp0rtant Num6ers in My 1ife.

Sitting here thinking about what ridiculous thing I was going to share with the 4 of you that will read this on Wed the 25th of 2006, I realized that numbers play an important part in each of our lives. I began to think about numbers that have been showing up on TV and the movies over the past few years. Hollywood has given us 7, The 6th Sense, 21 Grahams, 28 Days Later, 3 Amigos and Shreck 2. Television as made famous 24, 2 and 1/2 Men, and the Lost numbers 4, 8, 15, 16, 23, & 42. Thinking about this led me to begin thinking about numbers in my own life. I spent well over 5 minutes and I came up with in numeric order from largest to smallest, numbers that have been of importance to my life over the past near 28 years. Lets start with a really big number.

2,456,111 - I am not the first person who was born in San Antonio Texas, this many people were born before I was. I was however born with the 17th largest head.
980-2498 - Phone number of my first girl friend. Hahaha Of course I don't remember that :(
1,000,000 - How many black men in suits happened to visit the White House at the same time I happened to be visiting for the first time.
