"WASHINGTON - Call it a coincidental sign of our digital times or a reason to stay up late and stare at the clock. Either way, early Wednesday morning the time and date will be 01-02-03-04-05-06.
At 1:02 a.m. and three seconds on Wednesday, April 5, 2006, it will be the first hour of the day, the second minute of the hour, the third second of that precious minute in the fourth month and the fifth day of ... uh oh. It's not really the sixth year. It's actually 2006 — only in our shorthand is it '06."
Wow. Journalists in Washington have time to write whole articles about this stuff.
LOOK! It's a Mr. Potato Head Darth Vader!

I slept through it >I wish I hadn't - but I had no idea it was coming up.
Never mind, here in the UK, we transpose the date and month, so I have the fourth of May to look forward to.
I was actually awake and forgot. Bummer.
I love the Mr. Potatoe Head! We need to get one for David.
Damn I missed it. Did the world collide though?
I miss you so much cavu! Can't wait to get home and hang out.
