Five

5...used to be my favorite number, the number of my favorite baseball player (Brooks Robinson), the number I always wanted to wear. Then, I learned of the number three and all its magical properties. Okay, not magical properties, but mathematical properties. Add all the digits in a number together and if that sum is divisible by three, so is the whole number. Example: 3579 - 3 + 5 + 7 + 9 = 24, which is divisible by three, so 3579 is divisible by three (3579/3 = 1193). Another example: 1486 - 1 + 4 + 8 + 6 = 19, which is not divisible by three, so 1486 is not divisible by three (1486/3 = 495 and a third)

Isn't that cool?

Hmmm, should have saved the three essay for the Three entry. I'm sure I'll think of something, though.

Five. Five is right out! (When counting to determine when to pull the pin on the holy hand grenade ).
