Broken Pencils

Okay, so I'm done with the numbered posts. Partly because it's slightly depressing, and partly
because I'm sure I can think up more clever titles for my posts. But while we're on the subject of numbers (and yes, we totally are), I'd like to mention that the number eleven is pretty much useless. Sure, it's important for getting from ten to twelve, but there's no symbolic meaning to it. You don't hear about the eleven commandments, there isn't a special name for something that there's eleven of. Eleven is pretty much completely useless. Eleven is the broken pencil of the number world.
