777

This is my 777 post - now that may not mean much to many of you but that number is magic for me. I got my first hole in one on the 7th hole, on the 7th day with my 7 iron, my Targa is a 77, the last two digits in my new zip is 77, my first place with my wife of 7 years was #7. I am the 7th child my parents raised. My Dad has 7 grand kids, and my first name has 7 letters as does my sons. I am sure that I can find number relationships with anything but I am a pagan and 7 is my God, all the other numbers are demi-gods.

yes I am insane, deluded and completely misunderstood!

I still avoid stepping on sidewalk cracks, and I'm a praticing Catholic. I guess I need the practice.

I make sure that the gas pump amount ends in an odd number when I fill up.

My favorite OTC hot dog is the Hebrew National brand and there are 7 dogs per pack. Not sure why that is, but you always end up with an extra bun.

Next step, the 911 and then on to 7777 which only very few have accomplished.

911 is doable - heck I can do that in a week. The 7777, acording to my calculations will take little over 4 1/2 years!

That would be too obvious. I always go random for those things.

7 is the biblical "perfect number," so "777" would be the antithesis to "666". Lucky day.

Other significant 7s:
"and on the 7 th day, He rested."
Do you drink 7Up ? What happened to 1Up through 6Up?
There are single cylinder automotive engines. Also twins, 3-bangers, 4s a few 5 cylinders, lots of 6s. 7 is the first number to be skipped in the automotive cylinder count. (Probably a conspiracy by the petrochemical giants!)
Be careful! They are watching
Incidently, I am the seventh son of a seventh child.
