I'm glad I'll be experiencing it. Probably won't be around in 823 years.

No1 Doyen. 590 miles of hair in a lifetime ? That surely is approx 90 miles of it on the bonce and the remaining 500 miles is pubic, causing an expensive need for extravagant use of toilet rolls, bidets, etc. What a bummer !

This year we're going to experience four unusual dates. 1/1/11, 1/11/11, 11/1/11, 11/11/11 and that's not all...Take the last two digits of the year in which you were born -now add the age you will be this year, and the result will be 111 for everyone...!! This is the year of Money..!!! This year October will have 5 Sundays, 5 Mondays and 5 Saturdays.(and July too!!!)

This happens only every 823 years... These particular years are known as 'Moneybags'... The proverb goes that if you send this to eight good friends (already today translated from the Brazilian version..!) money will appear in the next four days as is explained in Chinese feng-shui...



Be Lucky!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
