When I left Sit & Knit this evening, I got in my car, looked at my dash, and this is what i saw. Look! My mileage! 44444!

That's gotta mean something!

  3. yes..it means you've gone 44,444 miles and you're still in love with your car! I know people who trade their cars in every year - they never have to get an inspection cause they never keep it that long!

  6. That's great that you caught it. On my old car I was waiting and aiting from it to turn over from 99,999 to 100,000, then when it finally happened I was so busy talking to my passenger that I totally missed it!

  8. i don't mean to curse you or anything but in Chinese, 44444 is a very unlucky number..4 sounds like 'die' in chinese(si)..hence, the more 4s there are, the worse luck it is..and some chinese are very particular abt avoiding this number. for example, in some office or apartment buildings there are no lift floors on the fourth level and no apartment numbers have any number 4 in them..(even carplate numbers too)juz thot u are interested to know..hehe..no offence though!
