# The Big Ten-Oh-Oh-Oh

A few years ago I read an article about some famous celebrity-type who
had a preference for women ten thousand days old. (I wish I could
remember who this was; he was a painter or poet, I think; famous, but
not extremely so.) He believed that women of that age were at their
mental, sexual and physical peak.

Ten thousand days is equivalent to 27 years, five months, and (about)
three weeks. The word “myriad” originally referred to a quantity of ten
thousand; I propose that the date on which you turn ten thousand days
old be known as your Myriad. You can use this form to calculate when it
falls:

Your date of birth: (day) / (month) / (year)

Today, you are days old.

You will be (or were) ^\*^ days old on .

Your next “even thousandth” birthday is your th which falls on . Why not
take the day off?

^\*^ You can edit this field too.
