By rights, I suppose I should post this at 3:33, but I'm sure I'll be distracted just then, so...

Today's date is 3/3/3 (or, 03/03/03). No need to be confused if it's written in the U.S. or Europe :-).

Happy threes.

Not as fascinating to some as the time 12:34, I suppose...

well, three's a lucky number, right?

Depends. (Are any numbers lucky? I think of them as being rather staid, myself.)
Not if you want to play bridge/canasta/euchre :-). Or avoid the bad things that come in threes.

Had I realized last year on 2/2/2, I could've wished everyone happy t(w)o-day ;-)

both three-handed bridge and euchre are just fine. and red threes are good things to have in canasta.

three kings. three musketeers. three pee oh. three wishes. three LotR movies.

then again, three's company. and three blind mice.

Jewish threes

(since you mentioned 3 kings... I suppose that would put these on the plus side...)
3 patriarchs, 3 daily services, 3 stars heralding the end of Shabbat

er, 3-hour tour (is that positive or negative? positive for the viewers, negative for the characters?)

Um, missed the last two of those. Have you read The Three Javelinas, btw? Nice southwestern twist on the pigs.

bears. sons (in at least one zillion fairy tales). strikes. sloth toes.
vertices on a triangle (which also define a plane).
(Jewish) pilgrimage holidays.

This one's better

one was a bridge reference. the other was working that whole non-jewish angle and invoking the new testament for kicks ;)

So I suppose I shouldn't send a comment squarely back at 'ya...
