Those damn prime numbers.

This upsets me.

The first 22 primes:
2 3 5 7 11 13 17 19 23 29 31 37
41 43 47 53 59 61 67 71 73 79

Sums of the first primes.
They seem to follow a rule that
they alternate between a sum that
is a prime number, or a sum that
is one less than a prime number.

Then it all falls apart at 19.

PRIME 2+3= 5
PRIME-1 2+3+5= 10= 11-1
PRIME 2+3+5+7= 17
PRIME-1 2+3+5+7+11= 28= 29-1
PRIME 2+3+5+7+11+13= 41
PRIME-1 2+3+5+7+11+13+17= 58= 59-1
7 X 11 2+3+5+7+11+13+17+19= 77

Love will keep us together.

This month Vanda celebrates the 35th anniversary of the Captain and Tennille spending a full month at number one on the Billboard charts. Having once seen them who can forget the sappy performances, Captain at piano and Tennille vamping out the lyrics in the most M.O.R. way possible. Vanda remembers seeing the C & T on stupid TV variety hours. Was 1975 when the Sonny and Cher show was on? Who can remember so long ago? Where's Google when you need him?
