So 2 of 7 things were selected. I guess you think "most" of your members on your shitty board are still active, too.

Not coincidentally the wife and I married 11/11 and 11/11/11 was our 5 year anniversarry. And our little was was born in 2011.
That it is in fact creepy.


On another note, I had given thought about changing my number to the last 3 digits of my AMA Competitors card, however it's less fancy of a number and it is shared with a current Pro whom I'm not a fan of.(I dont dislike him either, I just don't want to share a number with a pro)

You selected your wedding, your baseball number, and your motorcycle number. That's 3, so far.

11/11/11 being your 5th anniversary is giving priority to the number 5, which in no way is interesting, just another number. If it was the 11th Anny, that would be neat, but it being the 5th is ordinary since you assigned 11/11 in the first place so unless you died during 4, 11/11/11 was put in place by you by picking that date.

Then it all goes back to basketball and the random choice. You were given 11 as your number and then chose to make that significant throughout your life which completely demystifies any sort of weirdness to it.

So its really only the time of birth and the random basketball number that wasn't purposeful.

If you think the forum is shitty, feel free to leave. I don't really give a shit.

Sheesh, I wonder how keyed up you be if I was so lame I just ran someone elses number.

Maybe I was out of line about your forum... after all your "rally" did round up nearly enough people to fill a Honda Civic.

You do run someone elses number. I think you may know the guy, Ben Spies ring a bell? I change my number every time I get bored, one of the perks of having a vinyl cutter.

We had a good time.

Someone is a little mad they got called out on their lame number association. Hell you can pretty much take any number and find "important" associations with them. I am more surprised you didn't come up with more for 11.

Heard of Spies about 20 years after I ran it for myself. Not quite the same.
