42

“Can I steal your dice?” I asked Josh after harassing him for Photoshop advice.

“No…you can’t steal my dice.”

“Can I borrow your dice?” I tried again.

“What are you going to do with them?” 

Eventually we worked out a temporary custody agreement so I could get this photo of the day with his Dungeons and Dragons dice.

42 immediately jumped out at me.  Not only is it my favorite number, it is also the ultimate answer to ultimate question of life, the universe and everything. 

I had no idea how significant my number choice would be when I picked it out as a child.  I remember being in elementary school doing multiplication tables, and 7 x 6 = 42 became my favorite.   Apparently Douglas Adams and even Lewis Carroll (Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland) had a similar fascination.
