In 2 days I will, once again, be in my prime. It's been 6 years that I've been, BORING, composite. Max will share what Linda experienced a couple of years ago. He will be highly composite but, if you study
 
LBrad Factoids,
 
full of primes.

DeeDee, as Max puts it, will be forever young.

Max, Linda and I are trying to arrange a small birthday celebration for the sexagenarian two thirds of the birthday trio which will include a race in Connecticut.

Happy Birthday DeeDee, Chas and me! Thanks LindaB for the early wishes!

39 is not prime. There's a handy little rule that states if the sum of the digits of a number is divisible by 3, the number itself is divisible by 3 (and is therefore not a prime). Since 3+9=12 and 12 is divisible by 3, 39 is divisible by 3.

That's the long way of saying

39 = 3*13

So, DeeDee, you're gonna havta wait two more years to be in your prime.

All I know about BuBe's age is it's the same as LBrad's, give or take less than a year. I am afraid I don't remember the exact day. When our countdown hits 0, LBrad will be celebrating her birthday.

I am happy to learn of my soon to be "highly composite" age. This does not feel too BORING given the fact(oid) that I will not be in my pryme. SPEAKING OF FACTOIDS -- Wanna see Zee getting excited about an LBrad Factoid? There is one point in this short movie (a CinaMax film by the way) where I was SURE Zee would BECOME a factoid (which is a funny way of saying I thought he would CLIMB inside the monitor if he could have! Enjoy this contorted cat flick!

Great video! I spent my birthday buying running shoes, birthday cards, having lunch w/ Linda at DeNovellis restaurant, tutoring at Tunxis and having an awesome homemade cheese tart dessert after dinner.
