50 Down, 50 To Go

Since absolutely nothing else of significance is happing in America today, let us take a moment and congratulate my dad. Wayne Fager turns 50 years old on this fine day. Did you know that…:

  • …the Roman numeral L stands for 50?
  • …Paul Simon wrote a song with 50 Ways to Leave Your Lover?
  • …Hawaii was the 50th US state?
  • …1100102  is binary for 50?
  • …the 50th element is tin?
  • …50 is a Harshad number?
Don’t worry about him though. He’s got four kids to occaisionally dust him off as he hurdles closer to retirement.
Anyone can be a father, but it takes a real man to be a dad. Happy Birthday Dad!

Business Set-Backs

The Wisconsin Supreme Court has upheld a ruling that Ken’s Holy Orthodox Church of Pancakes is not a legitimate religious organization. As such, the business… err… religion… can no longer continue to enjoy its ridiculously profitable tax-exempt status. This is an utter outrage and I swear to fight the ruling to my dying breath. Ken’s Holy Orthodox Church of Pancakes will continue to sell pancakes ordained by the Almighty Batter, from whom all deliciousness flows. We will also continue unabated in our conversion of the heretical Ken’s Holy Reformed Church of Pancakes and its infidel members.
