C is for Centum

No, not like the vitamin company...

Centum, as in the Roman name for "100"


100 is:

…the basis of of percentages (literally “per hundred”)
…the boiling temperature of pure water at sea level on the Celsius scale
…the atomic number of Fermium
…the number of years in a century
…the number of tiles in a standard Scrabble set
…the largest U.S. bill in print
…the number of blogs that I have typed

99 of them being related to or during my time here in Australia, and the premier being on Honduran Independence day.

If my blog where Popes, this one would be Valentine who succeded Pope Eugene II in August of AD 827.

If it were a TV series it would be viable for syndication (the 100th episode of a prime time TV show usually occurs in its 5th season)

Anyway, thank you to all my readers who make me feel loved by taking an interest in my life, thoughts, and adventures. I hope I can keep coming up with new and clever ways of keeping you all entertained.
