152

I'm going to do a copy-cat post (as usual :)  This one is from my friend Jill.  She did her 100th post today and put some facts about the number 100:

  • There are 100 tiles in a standard game of Scrabble (in 19 languages, English included).
  • After 100 episodes, tv shows are generally considered fantastic candidates for syndication. (have no fear, blogs are not held to the same low standard.) 
  • Wilt Chamberlain scored a record 100 points in a single NBA game (He played for the Philly Warriors and accomplished this feat of ball-hoggery in March of 1962).
  • Most of the world's currencies are divided into 100 subunits.
  • In Belgium, you dial 100 to get emergency services.
  • There are exactly 100 prime numbers whose digits are in strictly ascending order.

And since this is my 152nd post (I must have missed the 100th, and holy cow I missed my blogiversary too), I thought I'd share some facts about the number 152!  (Thanks wikipedia)
