TRIBAL RHYTHMS - THE FORTY NINE:
The powwow is over for the night. Many of the people have folded up their lawn chairs and are heading back to their family's campsite, maybe to a camper, or a teepee, a van or a car, for a good rest. Tomorrow will be another day of dance and music, friendship and contests, good food, tradition and respect.
But not everyone at the powwow is ready for sleep. Now's the time for the 49. That's the name for social dances, usually taking place after the powwow is over, sometimes until the rays of the morning sun are just peeking over the horizon. In a secluded spot somewhere in or near the camp, couples and young singles will gather, maybe around a fire. A drum might appear. If there's no drum, a cardboard box, or even the hood of a car will do. I myself have dented a few hoods in my lifetime.
You might hear such vocables as "be bop a lu la" in a forty-nine song. Or how about this earnestly romantic lyric: "Way, hey ya, hey ya. Oh, yes, I love you, honey dear. I don't care if you've been married 15 times, I'll get you yet! I miss my sweetheart, I miss my sweetheart. she's in jail! Way, ya hey ya, hey ya."
sounds familiar????

Fifty-three is the 16th prime number. It is also an Eisenstein prime.
53 written in hexadecimal is 35, that is, the same characters used in the decimal representation, but reversed. Three multiples of 53 share this property: 371 = 17316, 5141 = 141516, 99481 = 1849916.
But 53 can not be expressed as the sum of any integer and its base 10 digits, making 53 a self number.
The atomic number of iodine - you guessed it 53
Fifty-three is:
The code for international direct dial phone calls to Cuba

Ringo Starr’s book "Postcards From the Boys" (2003) contains 53 postcards from fellow Beatles

Tony Baretta also worked out of the fictitious 53rd precinct
"53rd & 3rd" a song by the Ramones

(quote) Apparently, Pepsico owns the patent for something called "Animal 57s."
-> They keep these things in the back of Taco Bells and KFCs. It's where
-> they get their meat. These things are just big chunks of meat floating
-> around in tanks of water. If you tap on the side or stare at them,
-> they'll come toward you. Apparently a living organism that's used for
-> nothing but its meat (because that's all it is).
So what I'd like to ask re.aquaria is, is anyone keeping an Animal 57
in their home? I'd like to get one, 'cause at work they have this thing
that looks just like a piranha except he's that other fish that looks
just like a piranha but is really friendly. And I want to have something
cooler. I think an Animal 57, which comes towards you if you stare at
it 'cause it's telepathic and can also be made into tacos, would be cool.
I wonder what Animals 1 to 56 were?
