Playing with numbers
« on: January 12, 2008, 10:00:46 »
There are only 8 'flushes' of digits on a clock showing all the same number.

What are the odds on seeing even one of those in a night?

In the last week I have woken up to 0.00, 2.22, 4.44 (once with 5.55 same night), 5.55 3 times (once with 2.22 same night), 22.22.

Doesn't prove much but.......!!

Well, that's just weird, I think your body clock is definitely out of kilter at the moment!

Hope you are feeling better soon Tim,

Tongue in cheek but should you have that last drink before bedtime. Thankfully I still keep waking up just the once.

Same things happens with me.  If I waken up during the night, its always  3.10 a.m. or 5.22.   I thought it was strange as well.  Now I know, I am not alone.

Glad I'm not alone Tim :)  This happens to me all the time, not only at night but during the day as well. The most common one with me is 4.44. Next time it happens I will think of you Tim, maybe you will be looking at the clock at the same time ;D
Happy gardening all...........Pat
