      At work I have to deal with a lot of number coded boxes. So I see engine sizes, calibers, porsche body designations, and computer processor codes.

      I get very very very bored.

      When paying for lunch, if the amount is close to a popular engine displacement I always round up to that number for the tip. Of course it's all but impossible to buy lunch for $3.50, $3.96, $4.54 or even $5.72 anymore.........
      You can always buy lunch for 8.14 but I dunno why you'd want a mountain motor in a street car

      I even see it when I get fast food order numbers. Not just displacements but years too. Can you guess my favorite?

      I do the same thing but with skydiving terms, main and reserve sides.

      Do you still believe in all the things that you stood by before? Are you out there on the front lines, or at home keeping score?
      Do you care to be the layer of the bricks that seal your fate? Would you rather be the architect of what we might create?

      11:34

      Glad somebody owned up to the 11:34 deal (or "Hell Time", as we call it), I was beginning to think it was just me.

      After twelve years in accounting all sets of numbers seem to have significance no matter how random. But the car related ones are always good to run across.

      It's just a bit past the awakening of Pro-Touring and we all really care don't we?

      I see engine displacements in time too :D , and engines and model years in totals of purchases. It kind of weirds cashiers out when a 25yr old says "That was a good year" or "Good motor" when the total comes to $19.56 or $3.46 or something like that .
