Having withstood my 27th year here on planet Terra back in April, I was mortified to realize that I totally missed celebrating my 10,000 day alive, (September 8th, if my math is right). After all, I watch with a mix of horror and anticipation every time my odometer turns another 10k.
Nevertheless,
I plan to party belatedly. But what birthday traditions to create? After all, the first of anything should be planned carefully. Obviously candles are out.
The bash plans so far:
Listening to 'Our Time in Eden' by 10,000 maniacs.
Watch 'Ten' on slow motion so that it's precisely 10,000 seconds long.
Driving 5 kilometers to anywhere, and 5 kilometers back.
Drinking 10 ml of 'Bio Remedy' Cough Syrup, (10% alcohol)

Watch "10"? A thousand times |
|
|
bliss, that might take a bit long. |
|
|
Just watch the famous scene of Bo, and fast forward the rest |
|
|
Visit Minnesota, the "Land of 10,000 Lakes". |
|
|
This is the halfbakery, where's the:
-10,000 day, direct brain implant alarm clock?
-The 27.38 year calendar?
-Laser Projection on to the moon of the names of all people born 9,999 days ago to remind people to party tomorrow? |
|
|
I'm *never* gonna run a 10k, and I'd prefer not to be reminded I'd lasted that long either. |
|
|
Watch half of "20,000 Leagues Under the Sea"? |
|
|
He could have called ten thousand angels |
|
|
You could listen to the proclaimers 500 times. Then you could listen 500 times more. |
|
|
Or watch 2001 five times, and carry the remainder. Carry it where you say? |
|
|
re-create your tenth birthday party. |
|
|
live to 114 and you can celebrate 1,000,000 hours |
|
|
Gheez! You mean I have to wait until 14 Sept 2006 to celebrate my Twentykay-day? |
|
|
(I'll let the math wizards figure out the birthday) |

"Be sure to get your 'lube'! Hehe." |
|
|
If you just missed ten thousand days, you've only got about four years until you reach a billion seconds. |
|
|
With enough creativity, you could be celebrating something every day! (+) |
|
|
damn.
I missed it by 50 days. [+] |
