I was just enjoying a delicious bagel and an orange this morning while reading the newspaper and to no surprise to me I stumbled across a long-time friend….the number 33!

This time the number was in reference to the percentage increase in Black Friday shoppers this year from last year.

Oh, how I wish I knew what the point of all this was!

This time 33 has appeared in my local newspaper about smoking ban supporters backing Ohio’s court decision to uphold the ban.

I have found the link to the  AP article online so that you can view the article. Click here to view article.

Also, after you click on the link above, pay close attention to when the article was posted online:

No surprise to me! That’s how 33 works!
