1. There are 23 letters in the Latin alphabet
2. W = 23rd letter of the alphabet, It's symbol is 2 points down, 3 up.
3. 23 is the first prime number in which both digits are prime numbers and add up to another prime number. (2 3 = 5)
4. The number of joints in the human arm is 23.
5. Human beings have 23 pairs of chromosomes
6. It takes 23 seconds for blood to circulate through the human body.
7. The song "Just a perfect day", originally by Lou Reed, has been released in a special BBC edition, and is performed by 23 famous artists
8. In the song "Gett Off", by the artist formerly known as Prince, the lyrics read: "Gett off! Twenty-three positions in a one-night stand".
9. The Police; Their song "Synchronicity I" is 3:23 long.
10. Kurt Cobain; Born 1967: 1 9 6 7=23. Died 1994: 1 9 9 4=23.
11. U2; U is the 21st letter in the alphabet added to the number two gives you 23.
12. There are 23 buildings on the Microsoft campus in Redmond, Washington.
13. Sherlock Holmes and Doctor Watson lived at 221b Baker Street for a period of 23 years.
14. 23 is the lowest positive integer number not scoreable with one dart on a dartboard
15. Julius Caesar was stabbed 23 times when he was assassinated.
16. According to biorhythm theory, everyone has a 23-day physical cycle
17. The world's fastest human can average 23 miles/hour in the 100 meter dash
18. 23 degrees Celsius is "room temperature" on Earth.
19. Asteroid researchers measuring the rotation periods of asteroids reported that none were found with periods of less than 2.3 hours. A rotation period of less than 2.3 hours would cause them to be torn apart.
20. The axis of the planet Earth is 23.5 degrees
21. 63 years, the average lifespan of a human being on the planet Earth, is roughly 23,000 days
22. Nissan is a brand of Japanese cars. In Japanese, "ni" is 2, and "san" is 3. (Although '23' is 'nijuusan')

How are you counting them?Nightstalkers said:
I do. But not all humans do.
I'm almost sure this is untrue.
And according to Oversoul's Theory of Awesome (which has exactly as much credibility as biorhythm theory), there are exactly 23 greats in one awesome.
I calculated it at closer to 22.896 miles/hour.
For scientific purposes, room temperature is usually either 20 degrees or 300 K, which is 26.85 degrees. I've sometimes seen 25 degrees referred to as room temperature as well. But that's still not 23.
Seems like it would vary somewhat...

That's got to be about 23% of his list that you tried to discredit. Amazing

Amazingly, this is one of only 23 (it's documented) "urban legends" that snopes.com hasn't covered.

Sad thing about this is... this is about a tenth of the stuff I find when I'm bored.

Still not 23.......
I get bored too......
Very Bored.....Major collisions can completely disrupt smaller asteroids. The debris from such collisions makes still smaller asteroids, which can have virtually any shape or spin rate. Thus, the fact that no rotational periods shorter than about 2.5 hours have been observed implies that the material of which asteroids are made is not strong enough to withstand the centripetal forces that such rapid spins would produce.

Still not 2.3......
