While the drumbeat isn't as incessant as Y2K, the next end of the world marker is upon us:
04:05:06:07:08:09
That would be 6 seconds past 5 minutes past 4:00am...ummm, today. Of course, you could also look at it as 4:56 (4:56 7/8/9). Or 12:34:56 7/8/9. No telling whether that's am or pm.
And no one is saying what Time Zone that may be...but, so far, I'm thinking we're OK. 'Cause this is a fairly selfish way for us to view such a once in a lifetime event. You see, outside of North America, everybody else flips the month and date when using numerals to express the calendar. So, 7/8/09 is really the 7th of August for most that live on terra firma.
So, unless whoever is behind the coming numerically inspired armageddon is American...we have another month to party our asses off. And then wake up on the 8th, cock our head knowingly and say, "Yeah...I knew it wasn't really gonna happen."
