I was at a mic on St. Marks, late last night, when it came time for the raffle portion of this particular show. Normally they'd draw a ticket number and the prize (a beer and a book) would go to that person. But this time the host thought screw it and said "I'm thinking of a number between one and ten. I'll put my hand behind my back and you guess". Then she put one hand behind her back. The first three guesses were "7!", "6!", and "8!". Sure, can't go wrong.
But it got me thinking, if you have an extra finger they usually remove it when you're a baby. It's one of the few cases where they mutilate you to make you normal. It's kind of like watching Dirty Dancing in that way.
