Ya know I usta could do that math thing (OK I majored in math and computer science, but that was a long time ago) Since **Wyatt** ain’t talkin let me take a stab at it.  
The first 4 digits \* 40… Think of this as shifting the first three digits up one place and \*4  
Add 1 put a one in the last digit  
Multiple by 500 Shift everything up two more digits and multiply by 5  
At this point you effectively have the first three digits of your phone number \* 20,000 + 500… If you look at the calculator while you’re doing this you’ll see you’ve just multiplied the first three numbers by 2, shifted them up four digits and added 500  
Add the last four digits gotta get them in some how.  
Add them again ‘cause you’re going to bivide by 2 soon.  
Subtract 500 Remember when you added 1 then multiplied by 500? This takes the 1 back out.  
Divide by 2 remember the first three digits were multiplied by 20000 and the last ones were  
multiplied by 2 (when you added them twice)

After you remove all the mathematical gymnastics and simplify it the actual math would look like this:  
Take the first three digits of your phone number. Multiply them by 10000, add the last four digits… viola amazin huh!!!

One of my great shames is that I have no pics of my tat. hee hee that sounds dirty. I have been meaning to wanting to get some taken, but it covers my upper right shoulder and goes as far as my shoulder blade, and it is hard to get in one good shot. I can’t take it myself.

Yeah, and you live in CA right. Always my luck, anyone falls in love with me and they live at least 900 miles away. Of course, maybe if I stopped introducing myself to people over the internet, this would stop happening :rolleyes:

Oh my god, that is wrong, you had been up for 4 hours at 10am. One day a week I have to get up at 6:30 in the morning and I dread it, always.

Hee hee, I haven’t gotten to play in handcuffs in far too long.

**tanookie** What is keloid? I am always interested in new (to me) medical conditions. I am actually back in school preparing to take the MCATS. Eventually, I still have a long way to go, I was a theater major, we did not do science in the theater department except for the basic studies of how many people does it take to finish off two batches of Sangria. Is there a difference in the rate of consumption in the green room vs the dressing rooms vs the main stage. That experiment we pretty much covered.

As to tattoo ideas, are you looking for literal, funny, extremely meaningful.

**SGZ** Just curious how long did it take you to figure it out, or did it just come to you like the numbers came to what’s his name in A Beautiful Mind.

Well now I am off, I will talk to you all later I am sure, now that I have come out into the open I seem to be having trouble fading back away

hope all have a good night.

Keloid is basically a scar run amok. The condition has varying extremes and some people can end up with huge bulbous tumor looking scars from injuries… he just gets slightly more scarring than a normal person so where you might have a faint line he has a line like a wire under the skin. They can treat it somewhat to minimize this effect but the treatments aren’t perfect.

Yup … take the first three digits … slide 'em over 4 places and put in the other 4 digits … and … there you go …

OOH, A theater Major!!! Where’d you go to school? I minored in tech theater in Undergrad at Bridgewater State(Mass), and have an MFA in Design. we didn’t do Sangria, we were big into Tequila shots. some rather wild painting ngihts I can tell you. it’s pretty bad when the prof is buying the students shots at the neighborhood bar after the last tech rehersal. ooh, and the stories you would hear over headset. one night it was “what do you think about when you have your divinals moments?” (cleaned up a bit for the boards, think the most famous song by the divinals…when I think about you I touch…

and the birhday is Sept. 2, so mark your calendar for next year 😉 I will acceept cash or large expensive gifts 🙂 Just no PPH for me.

Eh, don’t worry about it. I’m off too, but I seem to be able to pass for normal around here. And no, please do not run off. As **Wyatt** said, you fit in well. Just, don’t get him started about aardvarks. We’re trying hard to ignore that it happened, and **Dreamer** is still having nightmares about it…

**dcatz** I went to Kenyon (thus my time in Ohio) which is a little liberal arts school about 60 miles NE of Columbus. We unfortunately had no tech major (or minor). So I was technically a lighting design major, but I was mostly interested in electrics and stage managing, both of which I did a fair amount of. Once I got into the real world I worked as a SM for off-off broadway for a couple of years, then got interested in directing, although all in all I spent more time being interested in it, then actually doing it. About a two years ago I realized that the theater bug had sort of cleared my system and went back to school, which is where I am now. I do still miss working in theater some times, particularly headset ramblings.

As to Tequila, perhaps one of the only ideas better then tattoos.😃 Hey, I know, lets drink lots of Tequila, and see what new pretty pictures we have in the morning. . . . No wait, that was one of the bad ideas, not the good ideas, sorry, carry on. Where was I. Oh, yes, Tequila in the theater department. More done after leaving the theater and had in various Dorms. The theater itself was, somehow strictly Sangria, which we made. Word to the wise, do not drink Sangria made by 18 year olds.

**Dreamer** Ah yes. I really do love children, but there is that whole being woken up at 4am thing. I suspect that I would love them enough to not kill them. But I am not 100% sure about this, and thus for the moment no **little I** running around.

But, wait, I thought tanookie had the handcuffs, unless she already gave them to Dave, and either way I think that puts them somewhere on the east coast, and really I have an organic chem test next week so I can not afford to take the whole weekend to play, even with the promise of handcuffs, but if y’all (see I told you I went to school in Ohio) want to come to NYC I am sure we could make a night of it.

**Maureen** Thanks for the moral support. I have over a year before I will actually be taking them, and then a year after that, I start med-school (assuming all goes according to my grand master plan. _insert evil laugh here_)

I won’t tell the rest of the world if you wont. I bet we can fool 'em.

I promise not to mention the A word. **Dreamer** as far as I can tell you need all the sleep you can get, so I would not want to be the cause of night mares.

Thankfully the little guys don’t always wake me at 4ish. This morning it was just befor 6am. (Yes **Wyatt** there is another 6 and it’s way early in the morning.) _sigh_ I remember the days when the kids would sleep until 8am or so.
