143 Is Not Just A Number 143 Means I Love You

Send this to your wife. 143, 143, 143. If you're not cool like me then you have no idea what I'm talking about. It means you do not have children with cell phones, or you would know.

143 is the sum of three consecutive primes (43 + 47 + 53), as well as the sum of seven consecutive primes (11 + 13 + 17 + 19 + 23 + 29 + 31). But, that has little to do with this article.

So you simply need to face the facts that you just might be getting old and officially behind the times.

Perhaps you've seen the Cingular, err At&T commercial with a little girl talking to her mom in a language similar to how she texts her friends. 143 is the shortened version of 'I love you'

And in case you have not figured out by reading this article, it's not a throwback to 1999.
