Default Oh wait
Today is 08-08-08, and sunset is at 8:08 (here, anyway). So maybe we should do something really special at 8:08 tonight. As opposed to what I'm usually doing at 8:08: zzzzzzzzz.

That's a great idea, B2Y!! I'll eat 8 Brownies at 8:08 PM in honor of today!! I'd better get started early, though.....can't eat 8 brownies in one minute.

Today is my nephews birthday. His is the only one I can remember just because he was born 8/8/80! Good grief....he's 28 today!!!

Depends on how small the brownies are! If they're the size I like, you're right, you can't eat that many in a minute. Try Oreo cookies.

Kitty, ! That certainly makes it easy to remember. Just like my son: born March 13 (3/13), my room number was 313, it was Friday the 13th, he was the 13th grandchild on my H's side of the family, he was 7 lbs 12 3/4 oz (7 lbs 13 oz if you round up). We gave him an Irish name b/c he needed all the luck of the Irish he could get (I have an Irish heritage).

Maybe I'll read 13 pages in a book in celebration. Or change the channel 13 times (wow, thumb workout!).

Well, let's enjoy it!

If I'm not mistaken, the Olympics start at 8:08 pm on 8/08/08 in Beijing. It's got something to do with the word eight in Chinese being similar to prosperity or some such.
