There's got to be some equation that makes the show 39 years old.

Happy Diamond Anniversary Jackson and gang!

In honor of this auspicious occasion, I'll be listening tonight to the first episode. I'm really looking forward to this Sunday's chat about it, too.

Dennis: Easy. First, you add up the digits in the year 1, 9, 3, and 2 which gives you 15. Then you multiple 15 by the day, 2, which gives you 30. Then you add the month. May is the 5th month in the year, so you add 5 which gives you 35. Then I added 4 and got 39.

Jack: Wait a minute, Dennis. I followed you all the way to 35. Why did you add 4?

Dennis: How else can you get to 39?

Jack: Ohhhhh.....
