I was watching PTI today, and they were talking about the Patriots offense. Tony Kornheiser said something to the effect of, if they're stopped on one run, they'll throw like 27 times in a row. I immediatly thought of Al.

Also, during (or before--I can't remember) the MNF game last night, someone used the number 27 in an exaggeration. I can't remember if it was Kornheiser or Theisman (I think it was Theisman), or what it was about, but it was also funny they chose 27 out of all the numbers available.

I know a girl who whenever she mentions a number always uses 27. Example- "Yeah, I read that book like 27 times". The scary thing is, I think it's coincidental.

Well, after putting my basket of pink ribbon cookies on display at Curves and the hair studio next door, there were 27 cookies left out of 50. I sold them for $2.00 each. However, when I got home, after counting them up, I decided to eat two more, and pitch in another $4.00 for them to make my donation to Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer Society an even $50.00. Even though I didn't sell all of them, I think it still worked out rather well. We'll just eat the rest of them here. I will say they are a good sized, and very tasty cookie!

I recently made a short animated movie, and when I finished it and edited in titles and stuff, it came to 27 seconds! It was coincidental.

Well, tonight, I bowled 27 pins over my average in the second game. I won 14 dollars in that jackpot. I also bowled a 214 with handicap *14! I hate 14!* I won 13 dollars in that one. So, the combined total for both jackpots is....27 dollars! I did tip both gals who run the jackpots $2.00 each as a thank you, leaving me with $23.00 Now I just need to win 27 more dollars, so I can get my hoodie! *$45, plus $5 shipping = $50. 23 + 27 = 50.*

Woo! 27's abound!

I hope this hasn't been posted before... It's a sketch from a comedy show in Australia.

On February 7th of every year, the remaining amount of days is 327 (328 on a leap year). Heh, I thought that was cool since February 7th is both my birthday and Mary Yankovic's.
