Just how high can you count on your fingers and toes?I fail to see how any human efficiently using the gifts God gave him could possibly need more fingers and toes to count anything. I'd be ashamed to call myself a "geek" or a "hardware addict" if I weren't capable of counting at least up to 1,048,575 on my fingers and toes ..... aaah, well, 262,143 anyways. Damn lawnmower!! “I’d need more fingers and toes to count up how many outrageous errors I’ve found on Wikipedia”
