So I'm not the only one ? ;-) 43, 44, 144 and other numbers

by Reality Bites - 6/23/11 3:49 AM

These comments are not in chronological order, nor personal "Wow" factor:

I was born on 4/3/1969 (UK date order, so 4th March 69).
I have a close friend who was born on 14/4/1969

I lived at house No. 44 from 1987 till 2009.

Apart from the innumerable times I have woken at 14:04, 1:44 etc.
Receipts and invoices with 144, 44 and 43 on them. Hundreds over a period of many years.

I have a 61 page word document listing a large part of the ocurrences, some excerpts:

"£1446.9 credit on bank statement dated 2/9/2004"

"Recent find of receipt from shop dated 22/06/88, total amount £14:43. Wow. That was placed there 16 years ago me to discover now."

"C:\Acrobat3\ directory was created on 14/11/2000 at 01:44.30 secs. Is first and oldest dir on C: drive."

"Dad's Tesco receipt on mantelpiece for petrol dated 14/07/04. Issued at exactly 14:04. I find it on the 31st Sept."

"A battery I ordered in the post from New York arrives. (cost £10.10). Then I look at the record no. on the form : 51044"

"I go to the grocery store. The woman in the queue in front of me checks out her shopping. The assistant asks her for £4.44 (Just as I am there, everything she bought had to come to £4.44!). Then I get my printout after buying stuff, the time 14:44. :-O"

"14/04/2006

Good Friday. I arrive in (large town), the station clock is at 11:43, there is a sign advertising a trip costing £169 next to it . The clock changes to 11:44."

I buy a thermaltake PSU, when it arrives the transaction No. on the packing form is #6943 (My D.O.B).

At my new house after moving in '09 some new neigbours moved in across from me: "44" in their car license plate, the only numbers in it.

Need to be rather vague here, as it could geolocate me. An important event occured 4/4/1944 near where I was born and have lived all my life. Another on 4/4/2007

I could go on and on like this for pages, some are a lot more astounding than what I have typed.

Any comments, want some more examples :-).

Dear God, what is it all about *exactly* ?? The biblical link is the most obvious. I'm so used to all the 144's now that I just smile and raise an eyebrow when I get another, which is about every day on average.

Peace.
