The number 47 has eluded me for the longest time, but now it suddenly comes back in a big way.
- I saw an ad for a local department store selling turkey for 47 cents a pound.
- Or the basketball game a few nights ago when that guy scored 47 points in a game.
- And I opened up the paper and read today's "Pearls Before Swine" comic about the scout leader who took 50 kids for a hike and returned with 47.
- About a week ago, there were 47 days left of the year. (November 15).
- I used my cell phone once a few days ago and see that it's 47% charged.
- The Intellivision game I've been working on is now 47k.
- I watched a Local on the 8's segment on the Weather Channel (which is channel 47), and saw that it was currently 47 degrees.
So that's usually what happens. I have stretches of no 47 sightings and then WHAM! I hear a whole bunch of them at once. So anyway, that's what I've been doing lately, having a whole bunch of 47 sightings.
