It's almost 5/8/15, which (every 100 years) lists the three primary Interstate highways serving San Diego.

A century ago no one understood this reference; a century from now guitars will have been banned for 3 years and humanity will be dying out. So right now is a great time to be alive.

Some things to visit:
SANDAG Roads and Highways
"Get em outta here", by Sprung Monkey (only SD-related song that comes to mind)
San Diego Highways @ AARoads
History of San Diego Highway Development (PDF, 100 pages, published 1977 and 1985. There are some cool historic photos and maps here.)
Images of San Diego (our own Mike Ballard)
Historic Highway of San Diego County (ibid.)
My first SF/horror short story collection is available: "Young Man, Open Your Winter Eye"

Also, as for once a decade, if you don't get too hung up on the zero, there was also 8/15/05 and 5/15/08.

(I waited years for 90/93/95, but it never came.)
