Yes, it is 2-22-22. What a wonderful date. It looks like swans swimming in single file. If you were born on 1-11-11 (as in the year 1011) then you would be 1011 years old now. If that is you, make sure you join our birthday club. The information will be sent out on 3-33-33. Hmm...something seems fishy about that date. I guess that I will have to come up with new material before 1011 more years pass!
So what are the most elegant, aesthetically appealing dates in history? A quick google search turned up all kinds of dates, but they were not what I was thinking. For example:

| I am not sure what date these represent |
I am old enough to remember a time before google misinterpreted my every question. We had to do something called thinking...or thinkin' as it is called among us old folks. So here goes, I am going to come up with my own list of interesting looking dates.
January 23, 4567. That is an easy one. 1-23-4567. It is a ways off so you might want to put a reminder on your phone.
January 23, 45 AD. That is another easy one. 1-23-45. It must have been a simpler time back then. They were years away from having to worry about the Y 0.1K bug. Nothing but easy times.
I also like February 1, 2021. 2-1-21. I don't know why, but it looks like sailing boats to me. That reminds me of sailing with a Wannaskan sailor during happier times.

March 4, 1956. 3-4-56. That is another cool date. It was also the date that Kermit Driscoll was born. I don't know who that is, so I will google it.

| Thanks again google! |
Apparently Kermit Driscoll was a jazz bassist. Which explains why nobody has heard of him. This not a slam on jazz. Bassists are always ridiculed. It is just the way it is.
April 8, 1632 is a pleasing date too. 4-8-1632. It doubles as you go from left to right. Sort of like how inflation doubles as you go from right to left.

I’m big on numerology. 5 is my favorite number because it’s the sum of 3+2.
ReplyDeleteAnd the number 32 is the sum of 3+2+6+1+9+4+7.
Which is March 26, 1947. My birthday!
And, the date is an ambigram: /ˈam-bə-ˌgram/ n., something (such as an image of a written word or phrase) that is intended or able to be oriented in either of two ways for viewing or reading, like a palindrome but upside-down, too, too.
