AND MY FASCINATION WITH NUMBERS:

Numbers are great.. They are very helpful and I am very much fascinated with the role they play in this world... Here are two examples.......

HOW THEY HELP YOU SLEEP:

The place is a class room. The whole class is quiet and the lesson is about Napoleon Bonaparte.
It is so interesting that the tension of the class is palpable. The way he comes back from ELBA is a study in inspiration. And Now...

The Teacher: " In 1687 July the 19th Napoleon attacked Russia*. He had an army of 6573* cavalry men, 78622* infantry, 34444* lance men, 45636* archers.... " The voice trailed off...
LOUD SNORING.....

Also try visualizing the numbers from
1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13.....70 in your mind. Confirmed cure for insomnia.....

HOW THEY HELP YOU WAKE UP:

I am a rich guy. Very rich. In fact there are few richer. But there are few. I fell in love with a girl. She too loved me I guess. After her own way. Anyway I asked to marry her and she said yes.
On our wedding night we got talking and I asked her, "I love you yes. But I never got to know what you really like, you know, like what allures you...."

She started seriously "I am fascinated by numbers..........."

I looked into her face and saw heaven there. A soul-mate at last....

"......... I am in love with zeros...."

Ah, How beautiful!!! I sighed...

"...... Especially the ones that follow 1 in MILLION, BILLION, TRILLION...."


'*' indicates that the numbers are definitely wrong and any resemblance is pure co-incidence.


THATS ALL FOLKS AND CYA LATER...
