Hi Moey; I had no idea what number 8 was but then again you forgot to put feet feet feet feet feet feet in the question. But they were fun trying to figure them all out. I had about 7 but couldn't get them all.

[Smurfysmurf]

I did forget, didn't I

Actually, I didn't forget I never forget I just assumed you can read my mind

I am sorry, I actually didn't pay attention and left it off

[bwalters]

Did you notice I didn't die over your forgetting it. I guess thats a good thing though I would scare all of you to death if I had.

Some of those are so obvious when you know!
