It Was 32 Years Ago Today
Thursday/29 October 2009
It's a billblog time out! Milestone.
32 orbits together.
32 is such a great number. 32 = 2 to the 5th power, ie 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2. That's much more interesting than plain old 30 or even 25. 2 raised to the 4th power plus 4 raised to the 2nd power = 32. 32 is therefore a Leyland Number. There are lots of other cool things about 32. It's an even 100,000 counting in base 2. Wow.
But, the billblog timeout ...
We've had these 32 years officially hitched plus a couple of unofficial ones together. I'm grateful. As I fall asleep tonight I will say this: Homefree. And then I will think, Thank you. Everything else I will think has no business on the billblog. It's a timeout.
