Today is Saturday so Ace (the guy who owns this computer) is off work & when he gets up I may have to give over the machine to him.___Raining here too; I'm not in the earthquake predicting business, but if I were I'd say the next 2 or three days have potential for some moderate to larger rockers. If we get one such here with the ground saturated by over 4" inches of rain in 3 days, we're in for some major slides! The next rainstorm is expected tomorrow.___Don't forget Orby that you get two (2) guesses, either the same or 2 different. Two for the price of one for every-one.:xparty: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Queso Posted December 31, 2005 Report Share Posted December 31, 2005 oh, well in that case, log me for midnight as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Turtle Posted December 31, 2005 Author Report Share Posted December 31, 2005 oh, well in that case, log me for midnight as well. ___Now that is an interesting arithmetic problem. Inasmuch as I specified guessing to the nearest minute & midnight exact is not yet the next day to the nearest minute, I think I must correctly log you as 12:01 AM. Does this meet with every-ones' approval?:xparty: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheBigDog Posted December 31, 2005 Report Share Posted December 31, 2005 I have a son who is the other bookend in your annual party - Dec 31st. I am guessing that you are the first person born in your year of emergence, so the time would have been 12:00:00, right at the stroke of the new year, just before "Auld Lang Syne" begins. Happy birthday! Bill Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheBigDog Posted December 31, 2005 Report Share Posted December 31, 2005 Turtle, I have another son born on Jan 3rd. I tried to lure him out by Dec 31st to get the tax deduction, but no such luck. *details of baby baiting ommitted* Anyway... back again to double up on 12:00 Midnight as the birth time. Many happy returns! Bill Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
