Early this morning, our feedburner badge flipped to over 100. That means there are 102 people out there who have nothing better to do with their lives than sign up to get our pithy social commentary delivered to their news readers every … single … day. I’m guessing it’s the same 102 people who made  Clerks II such a box office hit.

By the way, I’d appreciate it if one of you could unsubscribe, so that I can get down to number 101. 101 is maybe the most perfect number in the world:

1. It is prime
2. It contains a prime number of digits (3)
3. It is a twin prime (along with 103), and of course, therefore also …
4. It is a Chen Prime
5. It is the binary expression of a prime number (101 in binary = 5 in decimal)
6. If you add the digits together, the sum is prime (1 + 0 + 1 = 2)
7. It is a numerical palindrome
8. Chuck Norris can defeat 101 ninjas in simultaneous hand-to-hand combat
