27s galore

Today was a big day for The Chronicles of 27. :)

Thanks to Eden, for bringing this to my attention:

Oh please. All hell's supposed to break loose when you're 27. When I called Tom Robbins last week to tell him the fascinating fact that sperm leaves the human male at just over 27 miles an hour, Tom replied, “That's good, because women go through a second adolescence at 27.” Kurt Cobain, Janis Joplin, Jimi Hendrix, Jean-Michel Basquiat, and Jim Morrison all died at 27. (The number 27 is also powerfully romantic; see the last question.)

And there's more!

In fact, I'm going to deliver to you 27 incredibly handsome possibilities. Yes! You'll be driving up to Vermont in no time at all. Just go to www.Catch27.com—it's my new Web site where you get 27 hot catches and then (because I know you're picky) you trade the ones you don't want…just like baseball cards!

These are answers to questions on Ask E. Jean

BTTF :)

Marty McFly: I had a horrible nightmare. It was terrible.
Lorraine Baines: Well, you're safe and sound now. Back on the good old 27th floor.
Marty McFly: 27th floor?

27 Jennifers ;)

Our readers are fantastic! This was sent to me from Logan's Dave!

RAFAEL PALMEIRO NAMED NEW WHITE HOUSE SPOKESMAN
Orioles First Baseman Rebuffs Press Corps With Spirited Denials

Rafael Palmeiro, the first baseman for the Baltimore Orioles who was suspended by Major League Baseball after testing positive for steroids, stunned the worlds of baseball and politics alike today by retiring from his sport to become the new White House press spokesman.Most baseball insiders had expected Mr. Palmeiro to return to his position at first base upon finishing his suspension, making his decision to replace Scott McClellan as White House spokesman all the more surprising.But the plain-spoken Palmeiro impressed White House staffers in his first press briefing today, jutting his index finger in the faces of reporters and offering no fewer than twenty-seven spirited denials in answer to their questions.

Team Working on Birth Control for Men

Only 27 percent of women who practice contraception rely on their partners to use condoms or have vasectomies, according to data from the Alan Guttmacher Institute.

27 months in jail...

From talk arena. I think 27 might be a little much...but I am not a parent I suppose.

"Via The Agitator, a Virginia couple was sentenced to 27 months in jail for hosting a party for 16 year-olds and providing alcohol. They did it, they say, to protect the kids, which they did by gathering car keys at the door."

Philip Roth is in the know...

I am only on page 15 of The Plot Against America by Philip Roth


And there has already been 3 references to the great number. Perhaps it is historically accurate too, I am not going to look it up, but wow. THREE 27's?

Page 3- Route 27
Page 5- A day in the Spring of 1927

I am a bit freaked out! :)

The blog post that goes like this...

Monty Python's Spamalot," a loose - and loony - adaptation of the 1975 film "Monty Python and the Holy Grail," won the top prize at last night's Tony Awards, adding a Tony for best musical to a résumé that already includes a $27 million advance, international press coverage and more knights in tights than any other show on Broadway.

Watching the Watchers
Australian blogger Tim Blair calls our attention to an amusing kerfuffle Down Under that involves this Web site. It began when Janet Albrechtsen, a columnist for the Australian newspaper, gave a plug to the work of Arthur Chrenkoff:

Good news [about Iraq] is not hard to come by. But when something positive does happen, it either gets filtered through the anti-war eyes of the media or is all but ignored. And that is what the terrorists are counting on. They must detest The Wall Street Journal. Each fortnight the paper's website (www.wsj.com) includes a round-up of good news from Iraq. It makes for refreshing reading, if only to even up the Iraq ledger.

Last week came the latest instalment, all 27 pages of it.

27 pages of good news, from the prestigious Wall Street Journal? We wanted to know more . . . but couldn't find it on their web site.

The Buffalo/WNY sitering grew to 27 members today!

Ah. 27 :) So happy.

Boozie had a random 27 a few days ago...Thanks to Eden for alerting me to this:

Somehow, I ended up drinking about 27 pitchers of bowling alley beer. You know that shit is overcarbonated, right? I STILL have a headache from it. Also? when we came home from the bowling alley? after drinking 27 pitchers of beer? I drank one more.

Hee!

I want my TWO DOLLARS!

In the movie Better off Dead with John Cusack, Lane (Cusack) is chased by a crazy paperboy who follows him everywhere asking for the two dollars the family owes him. He rides a bike, and the bike has a number 27 on it.
