#252Happy New Years from Louisiana! A few hours to go still here. I'm glad that Hanukkah and xmas happened on the same day this year. Hoping for better health, and a new job in 2025. I met a new woman, and I hope that pans out.
Just read this, bittersweet now but thank you for posting this as I read it from New Orleans.

Great to know that someone else too keeps track of squares. At the ages of perfect squares is when we all cross or achieve significant milestones in our lives as children, students, (young)adults, spouses, parents, grandparents, senior citizens of society and so on.

My youngest is fascinated by squares at the moment. Luckily for him, he is 4 years old, his older brother is 9, while I just turned 36. He will be delighted when I tell him that we are entering 45 squared!
Also, if you add your ages together… 7^2
If you multiply your ages… 36^2

6 is kind of cheating. It's a restatement of 45^2. 3^2 is the sum of the first three odd numbers. 4^2 is the sum of the first four odd numbers. 5^2 is the sum of the first five odd numbers. Edit: sorry, don't mean to be a pill.
4 and 5 too
How so? I'm too dumb to see it.

#259Same. I've been a lurker since 2008. Been hitting this site practically every day since. I've learned so much in the process. Thanks for everything hn, happy new year!
Long time lurker here, too. It has become a central part of my daily routine.
