    Which 8 is a Chinese lucky number, and that's why the Olympics officially start today.

    I had heard that! Cool! I saw on the news that a lot of Asian women wanted to get married this day also, for that reason.

    I was thinking about that also. I wonder how many of those weddings worked out! I would have done that if I had been planning a wedding.

    I guess it would be kinda neat to turn 24 on that date. 24 is of course the sum of three 8's.

    That would mean being born in 1984, which is a number that is divisible by 8, the quotient being 248. 248 consists of 24 and 8. And, of course, 8 goes into 24 three times.

    Tesla the famous inventor was fascinated by the number 3. He lived in a hotel room which was numbered by a number divisible by 3.

    3 is the age that follows the terrible 2's. 3 is the first number that can be referred to as a "few". 2 is referred to as a "couple."
