Thirty-two days remain, folks.

 

Thirty-two is also:

 

The number of teeth of a full set of teeth in an adult human, including wisdom teeth

The winning car number of Ray Harroun in the inaugural Indianapolis 500 in 1911

In chess, the total number of black squares on the board, the total number of white squares, and the total number of pieces (black and white) at the beginning of the game

Retired number of L.A. Lakers Magic Johnson's jersey

Retired number of baseball pitchers Sandy Koufax and Steve Carlton

Retired number of Jim Brown, Cleveland Browns running back

O.J. Simpson's uniform number

Sometimes considered to be the occult opposite of number 23 (see 23 (numerology))

The (supposed) age of Jesus Christ when he was crucified

A traditional (soccer) football is made up by 32 panels of leather.

Haha, I love wikipedia. Have you ever tried hitting the 'random article' button? Thats right up there with youtube in terms of 'life sucking time wasters.' :P . Also wiki your birthdate. It's kinda depressing, they generally only note disasters, massacres, and deaths. And some births, so, like my brother, you may share a birthday with Lindsay Lohan (which is a disaster in it's own right).

Good or bad news, I will be dealing with it with the help of a little liquor on May 16th (I don't have to work on Thursdays :P )

Anyone who happens to be in England at the time - please do join me at the pub and I will most certainly buy a pint for all fellow Canadians - LOL! :D
