It's An Odd Day...

In the ongoing series of "Days only a math geek could love," today is Odd Day. Odd Days occur when the month, day and year are three consecutive odd numbers. Today is 05/07/09. Odd days occur only six times each century so enjoy this truly Odd Day.

Last night on TV, I heard there is a contest offering a 579 dollar prize to someone who submits the oddest celebration of this event. We're irregular. What can we come up with?

I'll play 579 on Pick Three today. I haven't thrown away a dollar (or 50 cents) in quite some time.

They add up to 21, orbs. That's a lucky number too....

Just think though, you would be betting on a favorite, no long shot. How many other Pick Three winners will you have to split those winnings with?

Maybe you should just buy a coffee?

I drank 5 cups of hot coffee.

Burned my tounge 7 times.


Now I have 9 blisters.
