One Isn’t Necessarily The Loneliest Number That You’ll Ever Do

July 21st, 2007

One isn’t just NOT necessarily the loneliest number that you’ll ever do, but it’s pretty much no WAY the loneliest number that anyone would ever be, do, represent or institute.

I understand that every human being’s purpose on this planet is to find someone else to be with before their day comes, and I’m sensitive to the fact that sharing your life with someone else can be a rewarding, emotionally-satisfying experience. I also get that finding that one soulmate can be the greatest thing to happen to anyone. But the number one? The loneliest number?

Guess again, people.

I’m Thinking of a Number Between One and One-Hundred

November 26th, 2006

I’m thinking of a number between 1 and 100.

It could be 4. But then again, who picks 4 if they announce they’re thinking of a number between 1 and 100? That’s insanity. 4 is like at the very beginning, it’s nowhere near “between” a number like 1 and a number like 100. But 50 is too much in the middle and one of the first numbers people guess after guessing 1 and 100.

Like I’d pick 50 if I was thinking of a number between 1 and 100.

No More Codes, Please

February 6th, 2006

When I was born, I had a social security number and nothing more.

But as I grew and matured (which is questionable) I was saddled with a phone number, an address, a locker combination, an ATM code, an alarm system security password, a credit-card PIN-number, a secret four-star Sunset boulevard dance club secret word, a million website passwords and usernames and a keyless entry automobile number.

Last night, I forgot all of them.

Don’t get me wrong — I understand the need for security in this day and age. I understand that at any given moment there are a thousand hack3rs attempting to steal my information. There is identity theft running amok and credit card numbers being swiped by the minute and SIM cards being hacked into and so on and so on…
