World Ends, Etc., Etc.,
Yesterday, 5 minutes and 6 seconds after 4am was 04:05:06 07/08/09. In case you missed it, you could have caught it a second time 12 hours later (although it would have technically been 16:05:06 07/08/09, but who cares?). I won’t lie, I was sleeping the first time. But the second time, I spent that precious second watching Into the Wild (or at least one second of it).
Whether or not you recognized the synchronicity of the universe within the scope of man-made measurements, rest assured it will happen again eventually. Or, you may want to observe 05:06:07 08/09/10 next year. But, of course there is another observance for those of you who can’t wait that long: 9 minutes and 9 seconds after 9am on September 9th of this year. 09:09:09: 09/09/09. Coincidentally is the same release date as Tim Burton’s animated film 9 (trailer may be seen here), a better release date, I think, than 09/09/99… (anyone remember the hoo-hah about End of Days?)
I think too much sometimes.
