5s

It's May 5th, 2005. By my clock, in an hour and 45 minutes, it'll be 5:05.

05-05-05, 05:05.

I read a tabloid once that said today the world would be destroyed, because the first 5 planets of the solar system - Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, and Jupiter - would be aligned in a row, and their combined gravity would rip the Earth apart.

Because, goodness knows, that set-up has never happened before.

Here's hoping I'll see the sun rise, at least one last time.

Well, what would you like to do before you die?

Happy Cinco De Mayo!

You have a greater gravitational influence on the Earth than even the outer five planets lined up. If Earth was that delicate we wouldn't be here.

What an incredibly impressive omen! Unbelievable! The only thing being that I have really no idea an omen of what that could be... :\

Ah! Now I do remember the tricky part of the omen:

If you reach a 55,555 postcount on Enworld exactly (and I mean exactly!) the 05-05-05 at 05:05, it's a absolutely irrefutably sure sign that... ahem... that... mmmh... Ah, sorry, I don't remember that last part. (Anyway, even Crothian wouldn't be able to do that.)

1) Pick a number between 1 and 10, inclusive.
2) Multiply that number by 9.
3) If the answer is two digits, add those digits together (like 8+5=13). (If it's just one digit, leave it as it is.)
4) Subtract 5 from the result.
5) Locate the letter of the alphabet that corresponds to that number. A=1, b=2, c=3, etc…
6) Name a country that begins with that letter.
7) Think of an animal that begins with the last letter of that country.
8) Think of a color that begins with a letter which is in that animal.

How many get the following:
