Default Do you find this happening alot???

So with all of us 944 guys on here, I know there was one big reason that made me decide to sell my VW over the turbo. I find it being almost a sign to say that its the type of sports car I should be driving. So onto the question...

Do you guys find that when you look at the clock in the morning or at night that you mostly look at it when its 9:44 am or pm?

Almost any 9:XY stands out in my head if it is a Porsche model. But yes, especially 9:44 or 9:51

My dad had got a 928 when I was 7. (Brand new). I became fascinated with the car and eventually learned to drive in it. I always got a little kick out of it any time 9:28 came up on the clock or any where else.

It's funny that you bring up this thread today. Last night watching "24" the show clock was on 9:28 at one point and I mentioned it to my girlfriend.

Don't notice the 9:44 or 9:51 quite as much now.
