Today is an ODD day...

For the mathematically challenged, today’s date 5/7/09 is one of only six this century that will feature three consecutive odd numbers. Numbers lovers say the rare occurrence is an excuse to celebrate. The previous stretch of six dates like this started with 1/3/1905, according to Ron Gordon, a teacher in California who enthusiastically promotes numerical holidays, like Square Root Day on 3/3/09. Gordon is offering a prize of $579 to someone who celebrates the date with the most zeal or gets the most people involved in an Odd Celebration. Be creative. Be Odd!
