Almeta (menfrommarrs) | 11456 comments Odd Day is coming Friday, 11/13/15. Three consecutive odd numbers make up the date only six times in a century. 11/13/15 marks the end of this parade of Odd Days which began with 1/3/5. The previous stretch of dates like this started with 1/3/1905-

Actually I have friend who usually emails me with these obscure numerical related oddities. So my awareness has been raised.

I beat her to this one though.

Cherie (crobins0) | 21536 comments So, what are you going to do for Odd Day?

I just looked at my calendar, and realized I have scheduled the day off for a vacation day. Lots to do today to get done at work though. I guess I will be reading my Unconventional character book that I just bought. :0)

Well I guess it could depend on cultural locations. Some people write their date. 13 Nov 2015, instead of Nov 13, 2015.

So 13/11/15 does not really work as well as 11/13/15!☻

Lanelle | 4020 comments It's my son's 28th birthday, so my hubby and I will take him out to eat for lunch. Then I'll be babysitting my oldest daughter's kids so she and her hubby can go to a wedding. And then that evening some of us will go to a free band concert at Arizona State University.

I showed my son this thread. He said, "Hmmm."

Ohhhh, that will be on my birthday, Travis. How cool!

CFDeeDee @Almeta Well, sometimes we follow the date according to the moon, not the sun!
And it's been the new year a month ago!
I guess thats why !

Cherie (crobins0) | 21536 comments Thanks, but not yet. Not until December. The time is flying by fast enough.

Rusalka (rusalkii) | 19202 comments Damn you all. I thought I had your dates all worked out, and you all confused me with your happy birthdays.

BUT I WAS RIGHT... *cough* excuse me.

With all the dates (and one greeting), I got confused...
