Yesterday's midday NY Lottery "689" suggests (from April 3, 2005)—

— and the 4-digit midday number suggests a NASA Picture of the Day
that was published (not taken) on 7795 (7/7/95)—
Part II, Evening —
Suggested by yesterday's evening NY Lottery "068"
and by Weltschmerz and the Ursprache —
— Walter Benjamin, “On Language as Such and On the Language of Man” (1916),
Edmund Jephcott, tr., Walter Benjamin, Selected Writings, Volume I: 1913-1926 ,
Marcus Bullock and Michael W. Jennings, eds., Cambridge, MA,
Harvard University Press, 1996, pp. 62-74. The above is page 68.
A more entertaining meditation is suggested by yesterday's 4-digit evening NY number—
a video tribute to a song said to have been released as a single on 7383 (7/3/83)—
