Happy Friday all...

The title says it all.   Today is the the 8th day of the 8th month of the 8th year of this millenium.  It is also 88 days prior to the US presidential elections.

Just figured I would throw that little bit of silly trivia...

Enjoy your weekend,
Thadius

Minn. baby born 8/8/08 at 8:08; 8 pounds, 8 ounces


FERGUS FALLS, Minn. (AP) - Hailey Jo Hauer was born on the eighth day of the eighth month in 2008 at 8:08 a.m. So it wouldn't make sense for her to weigh anything other than 8 pounds, 8 ounces.


Lindsey Hauer thought staff at Lake Region Hospital in Minnesota were joking when they told her the time of her daughter's birth. Then she got a call from the birthing suite noting Hailey's weight.


Nurse Jenny Harstad joked that she tried to shrink the baby to 18 inches from her actual 19.5 inches.


Several hospital staff members pledged to buy lottery tickets.

Actually, and amazingly, there were actually two babies born at that exact day, time & weight, saw it on the MSN home page this a.m.....and the other one was also the grandparents' 8th grandchild.   Spoooooooky......

We had one of those 8:08 am babies in our town.  But when you read further, you find it was not by chance.  The doctor scheduled the c-section (and his stated reasoning for the section was total crap) for, as he put it, "7:30 am and then we'll probably be able to have the baby be born at 8:08 am".
