I would like someone to explain to me why this is true.

To quote the article,

Pogue writes: Late tonight — specifically, 123 seconds after 1:00 a.m. — the time and date, for the first time in all of humanity, will be 01:02:03 04/05/06.

Wouldn’t this have been true in 1906, 1806, 1706, etc., as well as come again in 2106, 2206, 2306?

Am I missing something?

I may have missed out on dirt cheap hotel stays in Japan, but UCLA beat LSU, giving me the edge over B-Dawg in our basketball pool for third place.

The only thing surprising about the idea of a Simpsons movie is that it took 17 years to come about.

I’ve been humming the theme song to Duck Tales, part of the old Disney Afternoon programming block from the late 80s-early 90s, off and on for several weeks now. So today before I left I gave in to the urge to search for a download of theme song.

And, damn, it craked me up to hear it. It’s been YEARS since I’ve listened to this stuff. And how could anyone forgot that classic Duck Tales video game for the NES? So far I’ve tracked down Gummi Bears, Chip N’ Dales Rescue Rangers (I knew about the “other” meaning even back then), Darkwing Duck, and Gargoyles. Tale Spin appears to be a real challenge to find.

And for those who care, Gargoyles is available on DVD. I was surprised and will likely pick up a copy. Arthurian legend mixed with the Illuminati and other cults and myths in this surprising “children’s” show.

So the first day of Sweet 16 games wrapped up, and I just checked in on the brackets. The wheat is finally being separated from the chaff in the pool, with several people falling down hard over the Gonzaga, West Virginia, and Duke loses. Crazily enough, I apparently changed things up at the last minute before the tourney started, picking UCLA to be in the championship game after beating Duke in the Final Four game. I didn’t even realize this until after the ridiculous comeback to beat Gonzaga.

Good stuff – I love this time of year.
