Happy Birthday young fellow. I'm coming up on 14.6 Lustrums. I hope you can find a nice 11.25mm caliber handgun at your local gun shop tomorrow.

I worked with land descriptions and I had to deal with all kind of ancient measurements. My house sits on 22.4 square perches of land.

A lūstrum (IPA: [ˈluːs̠t̪rʊ̃ˑ], plural lūstra) was a term for a five-year period in Ancient Rome. It is distinct from the homograph lustrum (/ˈlʊstrəm/ LUSS-trəm): a haunt of wild beasts (and figuratively, a den of vice), plural lustra (/ˈlʊstrɑː/ LUUS-trah).

I win!

I took latin in high school, around 12 lustrum ago (+/-), and don't remember learning anything about a lustrum, but I was not a star student -not going to blame it on my teacher. If nothing else, this thread made me google lustrum to understand all the posts.
