"5"

Hello Friends...It's five days away from this five thing.  And with it five days away I thought it would be fun to fill you in with some fives...
  • Five is the third prime number.
  • Five is the only prime number to end in the digit 5.
  • A polygon with five sides is a pentagon.
  • An informal term for the British Security Service, MI5.
  • No. 5 is the name of the iconic fragrance created by Chanel.
  • The 5th U.S. President was James Monroe.
  • The five second rule is a commonly used rule of thumb for dropped food.
  •  What about in Sports.  Between the goalies legs in hockey is the five hole and a center on a basketball team is usually in the five spot.  Third basemen are five on the scorecard.
  •  The Jersey Number 5 has been worn by many famous athletes:
    • Third Basemen Brooks Robinson of the Orioles and George Brett of the Royal
    • Center Fielder Joe DiMaggio of the Yankees
    • Catcher Johnny Bench of the Reds
    • and I would be remiss if I didn't mention Hank Greenberg of our beloved Tigers.
    • In Hockey what about Nicklaus Lidstom former captain of the Red Wings.
So with that my friends.  It will just be a couple more days until we release 5 onto you.  What will you do when 5 comes to you?  Sounds like something like Hulk Hogan would have said when wrestling was real ;)

Have a blessed week.
