Has anyone else every noticed how often the number 240 appears after owning one? You're just sitting around and happen to glance at the clock at 2:40. You're driving down the road and see a pontoon boat named the funbarge 240. You're playing online poker and you just happen to have 240 chips. Its crazy.

Yep.

A stop-in at McDonalds for a chocolate milkshake yielded me this...

The clock bit happens to me a lot. One could get into how the brain is pre-disposed to noticing the number 240 because of it's importance in our daily lives. But that would take all the fun out of it. So screw that. ;)

yeah very true, 240 comes up alot now. When I was in France 2 summers ago on my calling card it had 240 twice, once I got back to the states I got my 240 a couple of days later. I think it was destined.
