I was logging into blogger yesterday when I discovered a strange set of number combinations. The days in the year, 333 and 666.* I mentioned this to Adrian (who was sitting beside me) and he said, “quick, stand on one leg”. It’s important to point out that Adrian is a cricketer.

And he says to the doctor, “Doc, I hurt all over.” He touches his leg, and he winces. He touches his face, and he winces. He touches his stomach, and he winces. The doctor says, “you’ve got a broken finger”.
Poisoned
