On 7

I may be crazy, but the name J-e-r-e-m-y has six letters. Similarly, the name F-r-a-n-k has five.

Do you not yet see the pattern?

I was born February 5, 1992 - that is 2/5/1992; do you get it now?

My family takes up 5 spots at the dinner table...

I have 2 cats. TWO OF THEM!

6 (first name) times 5 (last name) = 30

5 + 2 + 1 + 9 + 9 + 2 (birth date) = 28

30 squared - 28 squared = 116

5! (family members factorial) - 116 = 4

4 + 2 (# of cats) = 6

I tremble at the last step, which I assure you was not pre-planned.

6 + (my class rank) = ...

7.

Superstition is generally cool to think about, but not in the context of math. I would like to point to Mr. Jim Carrey's portrayal in the movie "23" for justification. Numbers can be manipulated by any half sane monkey of a man. Add in enough variables and the desired result is instantly achievable. Unlucky numbers are a ridiculous concept, and I would like to propose that we get rid of them entirely.

Lucky numbers though... you rock, and are completely legitimate. (<3 25)

That is all.
