DO YOU REMEMBER "HAVE GUN, WILL TRAVEL" CHARACTER PALADIN? WELL THIS POST ISN'T ABOUT HIM; IT IS ABOUT PALINDROME!

 

pal·in·drome

noun
a word, phrase, or sequence that reads the same backward as forward, e.g., madam or nurses run or dates.

For 10 consecutive days, from 1/20/21 to 1/29/21, the dates are mirrored. And, according to the Farmers' Almanac, this is the first palindrome-number Inauguration Day, with the next one occurring in 1,000 years on January 20, 3021.

As Napolean said, "Able was I ere I saw Elba". He likely would have felt different with his toy "racecar". I would be more impressed by numericals if they had any meaning such as words.

I assigned alphabetical values to those numbers and came up with "Abandon hope all ye who enter here" which strangely repeats for 100 days.
