A bit harsh some would say. Perhaps curvy, symmetrical, infinite are more endearing descriptions. Number 8 is actually a pretty nifty number.

- Number 8 is considered lucky in Chinese and Japanese culture. So much so that the opening ceremony of the Olympics in Beijing started at 8:08:08 on 08/08/08.

- There are approximately 8 pinches in a teaspoon

- Scorpio is the 8th sign of the zodiac

- A byte is 8 bits

- Year number 8 was a leap year

There. We can all sleep easier now.


Oh and yes, I did take a cheeky wee afternoon trip to the cinema today, pure luxury!
