080808: 080808



I could not escape from it. Who could? In Asia they strongly believe in numbers. You might have heard it publicised everywhere today with the Games starting officially at 08h08min08sec on this 08.08.08... In Singapore there was a special Loto (called Toto) with 8 Millions to win. In contrast there are some banned numbers like the number 4. Where I live there are four buildings numbered 2, 6, 8 and 10. No number 4. Likewise in Indonesia I was always amazed how the lifts were skipping some numbers. The big tower I was staying in, in Jakarta, had no level 4, 13, 14, 24 & 34! What's your lucky number?
