Okay I've read this thing 100 frigging times and I've only been able to count 6. Have I forgotten how to count or is everybody else wrong? By the way if it is 6 I sure don't appreciate the moron crack.

Finished
Files
oF
oF
scientiFic
oF

Where's the seventh?
 
I dunno

Beats the hell out of me. I think this is like that episode of Star Trek:TNG when that Cardassian kept trying to get Picard to admit there are 5 lights. Picard kept shouting "There are FOUR LIGHTS!!!!!" though. Pretty cool episode.

Hey I'm up to a hundred. Not bad for a week or so.

Yeah, I can count 7 F's if I skip the number 3 too.

LMAO, I wasn't going to say that. Angel's my friend.

I got 5. Missed the middle OF, took about 4 goes to find it even knowing.

Is the third F silent AND invisible?

I only get 6
 
There are 6 F's...look at Deborah's counting...she missed number 3...
 
When I was in college, there was a night I was exhausted out of my mind, and after work all I wanted to do was go home. After dropping a co-worker off at her home in Florida City, my other two friends in the car moaned that they wanted to go to a bar we often hung out at on Islamorada in the Keys. I was just too tired. They kept asking and asking and I kept saying no.

So, I'm on US1 and they both squeal gleefully "Yay! We're going."

I say - "No, we're going home."

So, they shrug and say "Okay, so why are we going South on US1?"

I insisted we were headed north. They both looked at one another and shrugged like I was looney.

I have the directional sense of a dead raccoon, so I cursed and turned the car around. (If you’d spent much time in a car with me, you’d understand. I once visited a friend in Tacoma Park, Maryland, went out for a simple drive around the neighborhood and ended up visiting Gettysburg, PA quite unexpectedly. NO ONE does lost and misdirected like me.)

If you've ever been on US1 down in that area, it's all bushes and ocean – mangroves and Everglades and gas stations so it all pretty much looks alike for a long stretch.

I passed two road signs. They both said US1 SOUTH, but I told myself I had to be seeing it wrong because I NEVER knew where I was going and they always did.

And I was right. They knew exactly where we were going.

We ended up at the bar.

I think Deb could have been in the backseat.

MP ;)

(Or, if you're a Trek fan "THERE ARE 4 LIGHTS")
 
3 shall be the counting...

LOL!

Just what I was thinking! You know what they say about great minds...


And yeah, I felt pretty good about catching 5 right off until I thought I couldn't find 7! Ah, me...

I guess we can all be a tad on the doofus side sometimes.
 
Still looking...

Six...
Six...
Six...

Either I can't find that mythical seventh F, or I just like saying "six" over and over. Hey, I DO like saying "six" over and over!

Weird.

Hey you can say it LOL
 
Memo:

I guess some of you did not get the memo. Seeing as how 3 is a crowd, that number has been cancelled due to lack of interest.
