Three shalt be the number thou shalt count, and the number of the counting shall be three.  Four shalt thou not count, neither count thou two, excepting that thou then proceed to three.  Five is right out.  Once at the number three, being the third number be reached, then, lobbest thou thy Holy Hand Grenade of Antioch towards thy foe, who, being naughty in My sight, shall snuff it.
   .......Armaments, chapter two, verses nine to twenty-one.

Yes, I suppose I could agree with you ... but then we'd both be wrong, wouldn't we?

Thanks, Ray.  When I posted my link I was able to read it and I assumed everyone else would be able to as well.

Thank you Bill. Just as many found special insight into the events of the day via John Stewart followed by the Cobert Report, I treasure the font of truth that was Monty Python.
