Today is a Palindrome, that is, a day whose date reads the same from right to left as it does from left to right.
01/02/2010
This century is fairly rich in Palindromes, having 12. The last one was October 2, 2001. But prior to that you have to go all the way back to August 31, 1380 to find one.
And no, it is NOT named after Sarah Palin. You're confusing it with Palindrama.
Don't even get me started on the very mysterious number number 34.
Dwight Eisenhower was the 34th president of the U.S. He was easily the wisest and quite possibly the best president of the postwar era, and a conservative Republican. Now there's a great mystery for you right there.
