Some facts about the number 48:

48 is a whole number (it has no fractional parts nor decimal points).

In Chinese numerology, 48 is an auspicious number meaning 'determined to prosper', or simply 'prosperity.'

48 is the atomic number of cadmium.

48 Hours starred Eddie Murphy and Nick Nolte.

Another 48 Hours starred Eddie Murphy and Nick Nolte.

Arizona became the 48th state in the USA on February 14, 1912.

We haven't had a 48th president in the USA yet (though it will probably be another idiot).

Oh, and probably the most important fact to me:

I turn 48 today.
