In episode 3 of Season 3, Wichita Linebacker, Veronica posed as a (I dunno, what kind of uniform is that? Lacrosse?) player to sneak into a coach's office. And she just happened to pick uniform #27. Go figure.

How I Met Your Mother

Novac lets us know that...
How I Met Your Mother's episode "Atlantic City" includes a 27 reference. Marshall and Lily head to Atlantic City to elope. They go to a casino wedding chapel. The receptionist organizes the weddings and calls out Keno numbers. The second number she calls is 27.
There's documentation of that sighting here.

Also from Novac, this tidbit from Alex King's website:

%27 = in javascript strings

Thanks, Novac!

Cleaning out the email

Err...someone has been really bad at checking the 27 email. So, thanks for the sightings.

First, Valida sends these:
  • in the movie "Oh God!", George Burns (playing "God") is staying in room 2700 at the hotel
  • Nelson Mandela was imprisoned for 27 years
  • when me & my 2nd husband were dating, i saw the number 27 on one of his sports jerseys. he said he'd always used that number in sports. it had to be love! we were married on May 4 (54=2x27). the middle digits in our first daughter's SSN is "27". our 2nd daughter was born on Apr 27.
This one, I thought was spam at first, but I went ahead and clicked on the link anyway:



There's more, but I'll do a separate post. Thanks! :)

November 27th? Why?

Forget Friday the 13th - today is the day for real bad luck

THIS could be your unlucky day. Monday the 27th has, it seems, overtaken Friday the 13th as the date on which the more suspicious among us should avoid the likes of job interviews, weddings and driving tests.

The date has been identified as the most ill-starred on the calendar, with more mishaps recorded than at any other.

The trend emerged from a study of more than one million insurance claims, showing more people are likely to have accidents on Monday the 27th than on any other day. Domestic disasters, including burst water pipes and DIY problems, feature heavily on the lists.

Road accidents were also common on that date. The mishaps of unlucky British drivers included crashes in car parks, branches falling on cars and accidents caused by people trying to avoid animals.

Kevin Sinclair, the managing director of AA Insurance, which carried out the study, said: "Friday the 13th is associated with bad luck, but our records show you're statistically more likely to have an accident or break something on Monday the 27th."

SLiTHERy 27



Rand and I watched SLiTHER this weekend, and there was a 27 in the opening scene.

Bill Pardy (Nathan Fillion) and another cop are sitting in a parked car, clearly bored. The second cop (Wally?) is clocking a bird with the speed gun, and comments that a whipporwhill flies exactly 27 miles per hour.

Tonight: Kitchen Distribution Presents “27 Sightings Past the Stele”

“How America needs poets! God knows – she has enough profit takers, enough garage mechanics, enough journalists, enough teachers of only what has been taught, enough wage slaves. Without the poet – man of vision wherever he stands – the Soul of his people is a dead Soul. One must be insensible not to feel the chill creeping over ours.” -Frank Lloyd Wright
