I first noticed the 05 05 05 thing in a business meeting this morning. It was a boring meeting and I was looking at my watch to see how close lunch was. It is a calendar watch.

05 05 05 appears once every 100 years. Although 05 05 X005 does indeed only appear once every 1000 years.

Next year we can look forward to 06 06 06.

Then the following year 07 07 07.

These delightsome anomalies will continue for the next 7 years. It certainly is amusing being alive during the turn of the century!
