Auspicious or just another day?

Everyone is cashing in on 7-7-07. Numerology is big amongst the Chinese but lately everybody has their own justification about this particular day. All good, of course! It's a good day to get married, go to the casino, buy a couple of lottery tickets, etc.

7 seems to be a lucky number, as far as it's perceived by most Westerners. Chinese people, on the other hand adore the numbers: 8 and 9; as well as other combinations of 3s, 8s and9s.

fh20 saw 7 sampans (boats) and couldn't resist it. Nice photo, btw! Another National Geographic material :)

So what's the big deal to Serenity? Today (7/7/07), Papa (in-law) leaves for Kuching after spending a month plus with us in NJ. His aircraft? Bowling Boeing 777. Hee..hee! Don't forget to pest press the call button if you need any resistance assistance. Enjoy your fright flight! Sorry, I have CS Airlines spill-over effects. I'm sure MAS announcements are comprehensible.

Bon voyage & see you in Kuching. Maybe next year?!
