I called Radio 8 Ball again tonight, as the 2nd to last caller, and mentioned that when you google: radio 8 ball, I'm the 8th hit. Andras checked it on the spot but didn't see what I was talking about.

Then I asked, "How radical will the changes be at work this week?"

The song was "Figure 8" (originally from Schoolhouse Rock) by Duplex (featuring Veda Hille) from the Album "Ablum"

The divination:

Me: Wow! We were just talking about the 8th hit for Radio 8 Ball and we get this song about 8! Also, it's a Schoolhouse Rock song, and I work at a school. It's about multiplication, and we've been doing that, I even specifically went over 'two eights fell on the floor, picked 'em up and they were 64'. It's by Duplex, and I live in a duplex! Thinking about the skating and the weather, I wonder if things will freeze over and not much change will actually happen. Maybe a snow day. Maybe if I skate, I will be great.

Andras: The line that pops out for me is: "If you skate upon thin ice/ You'd be wise if you thought twice/ Before you made another single move", so be careful and graceful. Plus it was first aired in 1973. Does that have any meaning for you?

Me: I was four in 1973, so that's half of eight. [after the fact: that was when we moved west to Portland from Ann Arbor]

Andras: Some inner child stuff going on.

Figure eight as double four
Figure four as half of eight
If you skate, you would be great
If you could make a figure eight
That's a circle that turns 'round upon itself
1 x 8 is 2 x 4
4 x 4 is 2 x 8
If you skate upon thin ice
You'd be wise if you thought twice
Before you made another single move
1 x 8 is 8, 2 x 8 is 16
3 x 8 is 24, 4 x 8 is 32
And 5 x 8 is 40, you know
6 x 8 is 48, 7 x 8 is 56
8 x 8 is 64, 9 x 8 is 72
And 10 x 8 is 80, that's true
11 x 8 is 88, an' 12 x 8 is 96
Now here's a chance to get off
On your new math tricks
'Cause 12 x 8 is the same as 10 x 8
Plus 2 x 8
80 plus 16: 96
1 x 8 is 8, 2 x 8 is 16
3 x 8 is 24, 4 x 8 is 32
And 5 x 8 is 40, you know
Figure eight as double four
Figure four as half of eight
If you skate, you would be great
If you could make a figure eight
That's a circle that turns 'round upon itself
Place it on it's side and it's a symbol meaning infinity
