8/8/08 -- I'm wondering if Ginger or Dave will build a set around that, either "Luck" songs or "Eight" songs (Gaz, I saw your blog post on the latter -- isn't there a Styx song called "Pieces of Eight"?)
8 has always been my "lucky" number. I play it as one of my numbers on roullette. If I'm playing poker and I start off with a pair of eights, I bet 'em like crazy. I am figuratively bonkers for the number eight (an allusion to a seperate thread
) .
Years ago when I was in "management" in the grocery biz, I used to dole out distasteful tasks using the pick a number between one and ten method. The number was always 8. Every single time. In the 3 plus years I worked in that position, with basically the same crew, nobody ever figured it out.
So indeed, happy eights day.
