09/09/09....LUCKY DAY!!

Everyone from brides and grooms to movie studio executives are celebrating today's date.
09-09-09 is believed to be particularly lucky by many. It represents the last set of repeating, single-digit dates that we'll see for almost a century (until January 1, 2101), or a millennium (mark your calendars for January 1, 3001), depending on how you want to count it.

It is the day The Beatles remastered albums, and the video game the Beatles Rock Band are released.

For Apple addicts

The rarity of this date hasn't been lost on the creators of the iPod, who have moved their traditional Tuesday release day to Wednesday to take advantage of the special date.

For maths geeks

-It is known that if 9 is multiplied by any other number, from 2 to 9, the two digits of the answer will add up to nine.

For instance, 2 x 9 = 18. 18, made up of 1 and 8.

-Sept. 9 also happens to be the 252nd day of the year (2 + 5 + 2)
-The day itself falls on a Wednesday and both Wednesday & September have 9 letters.
For people getting married

The ‘lucky’ date has led to a rush for weddings around the world.

-In Florida, at least one county clerk's office is offering a one-day wedding special for $99.99.
-9 couples are scheduled to marry at the Madame Tussauds wax museum on the Las Vegas Strip at 9:09 a.m., while 99 more are waiting until 9:09 p.m. for a shared ceremony in the observation deck at the Stratosphere Tower. Each paid $99 for their wedding package. Today is expected to be the busiest day of the year in Las Vegas. Chapel of the Flowers spokeswoman said the chapel booked 70 ceremonies for Wednesday, compared with 12 on Sept. 9 last year.

-A 99 Cents Only Store in Hollywood will treat nine couples to 99-cent weddings on this quirky wedding day. The couples won a promotion and paid only 99-cents to get married. The price included wedding gowns for the brides made out of T-shirts, table cloths and other items sold at 99 Cent stores. They'll be sent off in a limousine with $99.99 in cash to an undisclosed Los Angeles spot.

-The chain of discounts stores 99¢ Only will be treating 9 couples to a beautiful wedding for only 99¢ per couple. The store will also give away $999 to a 9lb 9oz baby born today.

For film fans

Tim Burton releases his new film "9," an animated tale about the apocalypse, today.
For numerologists

The number 9 holds a special rank in some cultures. It is associated with forgiveness, compassion and success on the positive side as well as arrogance and self-righteousness on the negative, according to numerologists.
-In Thailand, the government joined Thais nationwide in paying respect to His Majesty the King, the ninth monarch of the Chakri Dynasty, at 9:09am on the auspicious date of the 9th day of the 9th month of 2009.
-In China, nine is associated with long life due to its similarity in pronunciation to the local word for long-lasting.
-In Japan, the word for nine is a homophone of the word for suffering, so the number is considered highly unlucky.

For Dubai

The Dubai metro is launched today.

For the Web

Buzz about the rare date picked up on the Internet. On Tuesday, the term “9/9/09” was among the top 100 search terms on Google, while world’s end theories abounded on YouTube.
