It is that time of the year again! I want to take a moment to wish my readers the best of everything in 2017: health (definitely number one), wealth and happiness (you choose the order!). In chess, lots of good moves and only a few blunders.
For those who like numbers, there are 365 days in 2017. There are 78 days before Spring (which will last a total of 92 days), and 170 days before Summer, which will hopefully take up the rest of the year. This year there will be only two (2) Friday 13th, with the first one coming up this month! The other will be in October.
And the world? What is there to say other than AWESOME! As of this writing, the world population stands at 7,486,733, 215. Since midnight, a total of 250,157 people have been born. You can find out lots of other curious thingsHERE.
