WEIRD!!!
Posted on August 30, 2009 - Filed Under And your point is?
Erin and I were sitting around the other night, not doing much for once, when we realized something really strange. Maggie’s birthday is, as you all know, 03/15/06; Wyatt’s is 06/18/09. Look at those two series of numbers carefully for a second and you’ll likely see a couple of things. First, their birthdays are separated by 3 days, 3 months, and 3 years; therefore, if you add 3 to the day, month, and year of Maggie’s birth, the result is Wyatt’s birthday. Next is the fact that all three numbers in both birthdays are divisible by three, meaning that all three numbers can be divided by three and the results will all be whole numbers with no remainder.
When you take a step back from this and really wrap your head around it, what is the liklihood of their birthdays working out like this? I don’t know, but I would venture the guess that the probability is really small. It’s really tempting to me to read into this and conclude there must be some kind of unseen significance. You know, like it’s a sign of something, like the great beyond is attempting to send some kind of message. Of course, I don’t believe that: Though the probability is small that this would happen by accident, the chance still exists and it just so happened to occur in our circumstance.

if you kinda like numbers like that and have a spare moment when the kids aren’t around, you should rent the movie 23.
