Neighbor Rod Goeman points out the numerically cool nature of this fine winter day: it's a palindrome! Write the digits for today's date: 01-02-2010. Same forward and backward! Yahoo!
My numerically inclined European readers will have to wait until February 1 to celebrate, since they write the day before the month. But adopt my preferred ISO 8601 style (year.month.day), and you're the life of the palindrome party again: 2010.01.02. Same result! Abso-flippin'-lutely amazing! Party on, friends!
Bonus puzzler for readers not busy tobagganing: How many more palindrome days will we enjoy this century?
