Subject: positive 47

I have a small book of quotes about how your attitude helps determine the
results of your efforts (e.g., positive attitude helps get good results).
So, I was flipping through it looking for a nice quote for final exam
time and found one:  "A positive mind has extra problem solving power."
The quote was on page 47 of the book.

In the scene in "Tomorrow Never Dies" where the BMW dives off the top of
the parking garage, it breaks through the wall exactly at the spot where is
painted the number 247 (Probably parking space 247).

There's also a 47 on the license plate of a truck just after that 
scene.

Subject: uk 47s

Here are a few UK 47s I've been meaning to report for a 
while...

A couple of months ago a midwife was murdered: she was 
stabbed 47 times.

I don't watch Eastenders but I was flicking past the 
channel when some bloke walked out of a door - number 47.

Has anyone noticed that when companies such as taxi firms 
and insurance companies want you to remember their phone 
numbers from advertisements, they often comprise of 4s and 
7s, eg. 44477 or 474747.  (BTW these are real examples)

you a line before I went on.

Since today is my 47th birthday, I wondered if anyone has a list of
