Officially Past My Prime
9 comments June 7th, 2007at 10:03am Posted by Eli
Yes, my age is now divisible by 2 and 19. Not to worry, though – I will be back in my prime in three short years.
Also, I will be in New York for the next few days, so posting will be light – I hope y’all like photoblogging…

If today is your birthday, … … … Happy Birthday!

Argh. Muffed it. 873 is not prime.

Happy primordial soup day then.

I’ve figured it out—and while it’s still your birthday in the Central Time Zone, too:
Happy 380th Birthday, Eli!

Sorry we missed this trip, June 7 was also my mom’s birthday, and on the 11th my own age will be a second power of both three and two. The day after that I’m heading back to California.

Oh and happy belated 38th birthday to you.

Thanks, everyone!

Dude, how much time did you spend on this???
(And a belated happy birthday to you, too)

Not that long, actually. I started from the assumption that to be so wise you must be VERY, VERY old. Like, Old Testament Old. So I initially rejected the 380 figure as too young (and insufficiently obscure) and went looking for higher primes that fit the pattern. In between posts I had to drive eight hours through beautiful Midwestern cornfields, so what else was I going to think about? I didn’t find any others that fit, so I decided that the 380 guess must be right.
