#179

yes, i was the 179th person to vote at my precinct - hence, the #179. 179! 179? i wonder if there is something significant in that number. let's see, if you add up the numbers it totals 17 - equivalent to the first two numbers. does that make the third number - 9 - inconsequential? or does it mean anything at all. does the total of 17 mean anything. what if you take the first two numbers - 17 - and subtract the third number. you get 8. does that mean anything? you know, i may have slipped over the edge. but in doing so, i discovered the meaning of #179. it means nothing more than i was the 179th person to vote at my precinct. oh yeah, the boils down to a rate of 44.75 people voting per hour where i voted. kind of reminds me of ecclesiastes. vanity of vanity, all is vanity. i'm glad not all is vanity - like following after Jesus.
