Happy Birthday,
Legate and all the best! May you forever haunt these eerie halls!
And since you're 23 and I know you study, or at least studied religion, here some religious 23-related facts:
- Psalm 23, also known as the Shepherd Psalm, is possibly the most quoted and best known Psalm. Psalms is also the 23rd book in the Douay-Rheims Bible.
- In Islam, the Qur'an was revealed in a total of 23 years to Muhammad.
- In Abhidharma, the number of anomalous generic types (of a possible 72) - e.g., events are considered sui generis because they are not reducible to either mind or matter — is 23.
- Principia Discordia, the sacred text of Discordianism, holds that 23 (along with 5) is the sacred number of Eris, goddess of discord.
In case you're wondering - but I doubt it - my source is of course

EDIT: What better post than this for my 2000th post?! Awesome!
