"Look I’ve got my old pledge card a bit battered and crumpled we said we’d provide more turches churches teachers and we have I can remember when people used to say the Japanese are better than us the Germans are better than us the French are better than us well it’s great to be able to say we’re better than them I think Mr Kennedy well we all congratulate on his baby and the Tories are you remembering what I’m remembering boom and bust negative equity remember Mr Howard I mean are you thinking what I’m thinking I’m remembering it’s all a bit wonky isn’t it?"

The number 2. Cause I'm the second child in my family and I just like 2.
2 is a prime number
2 is an even number
2 is part of the Fibonacci Sequence (the sequence found in the whole universe)
2 is the only number in the number system that has this special property:
- 2 + 2 = 4
- 2 * 2 = 4
- 2 ^ 2 = 4 (thanks to doc_bean for pointing that out)
So yep, 2 is my number. Follow closely by 1.

I agree with littlelostboy:
2
but for different reasons.
1 is obvious. I am 1. But if 2 is possible - something not I, but also existing - that implies all other numbers and choices and possibilities, and also distinguishes and helps define '1'.
Zero is interesting and useful, but I don't really comprehend it (it's like radio & TV for me: just because I don't 'get it' how images and sound can be sucked out of thin air and shown to me, doesn't mean I can't use it).
Be well. Do good. Keep in touch.
The prime number 71551 is also quite nice, but the non-prime 715517 is a bit better.
