+1. I think I'll have a G&T in honor of Ingwe and the day...and in memory of Corbett and Bell, the former of which was a teetotaler (Corbett, not Ingwe) so I'll have to drink his too.
I'm sure you lifted that glass at exactly 7:57 PM. Right?

This morning the local paper said sunrise was at 7:57. Let's all hoist a toast to his special day!
Even Moses recognized the superiority of the 7:57. From the book of Numbers 7:57
“One young bullock, one ram, one lamb of the first year, for a burnt offering:” presumably with one shot.
And that was before they had Nosler Partitions!

I made an appropriate Ingwe toast, I had a spoonful of Metamucil at 7:57!

I just poured myself a cold one and am about to lint it to the day named in my honor ( kind of....)
This cartridge of which you speak, is it a wildcat? Some magical mystery round?

Does 3:10 this afternoon count? With the Ingwe Special, no less?

Good point. She wasn't going anyplace other than the freezer.

Call me when sunset is at 4:44
Get thee up to Point Barrow, pronto (today)! (It's actually 4:43 this afternoon.)

I think we should make this "National 7x57 Appreciation Day". I'll have a drink to that!
Every day is 7x57 appreciation day at my house. I just look at my living room walls!
