July 7 was my Dad's birthdate - 07/07/07 08:11 PM

My dad was born 07/07/07 and died at age 70 in 07/77

He would have been 100 years old today.

That is a lot of sevens and he should have been a crap shooter but I have never known him to gamble in his life time. He and I used to Batch together from when I was almost 12 years old, and I did the cooking and housework, and went to school and he did the working and the drinking but never gambling and I pretty much knew every thing he did.

SO Happy Birthday POP

Here's to the memory of your Dad Bill. So is 7 now your lucky number?


I was playing an online cribbage tournament on 07-07-07 and my opponent was telling me how 7 was her lucky number and she'd been winning all that day. We sort of laughed about it then she finally beat me .... and her final score was 77. We were both amazed by the coincidence .... o+r was it?

I don't think 7 is lucky for me.
this is the 7th month of the seventh year and all month I have been unlucky as in everything I have touched turned to SHxx that is stuff.
This month so far I have torn up my left arm rotator cuff. Suffering major prostate problems, my back went out for a week, and my yellow sports car was hit and run in a hardware parking lot while I was getting parts to fix a broken kitchen sink faucet.
Today the main water valve to my lot broke while turning it back on after fixing the faucet. No water or plumbers until tomorrow FRIDAY THE 13th
I am afraid to turn on a keyboard just knowing it will start smoking.
No 7 doesn't work for me
Besides I am a poker player and not a crap shooter
