Then open the pointer next. It indicatest the left. This is kind of a random choice ... / play ... Marius Hancu Joined on Wed, Apr 26 2006 Veteran Member 11,673

	Clive  +  322657 Thu, 01 Feb 07 12:33 AM Hi, It doesn't sound very random to me. You always have the same number of fingers. Am I missing something here?

	Grammar Geek  +  322861 Thu, 01 Feb 07 02:34 PM I'm with Clive. I've never heard this before. Surely I have control of how many fingers I hold up? Withoutu any more context, I can only say this doesn't make sense. Grammar Geek Joined on Tue, Jan 10 2006 Veteran Member 20,878 Barbara, who answers in American English.

	nona the brit  +  322902 Thu, 01 Feb 07 03:57 PM That doesn't make any sense to me either, you would know which way you would turn depending on which hand you used, there's nothing random there. Was this line part of a joke? I suspect it may be more than a little rude after googling 'one finger, two finger', assuming that it isn't referring to the Hawaiin dish of that name. The other uses are all rather, um, anatomical. nona the brit Joined on Wed, Sep 22 2004 England Veteran Member 11,773 The name says it all. Jokes

	Lil' Ruby Rose  +  322906 Thu, 01 Feb 07 04:07 PM Doesn't make sense to me either.  Grasping at straws, could he be counting out seconds, in a sort of "ready, steady... go" way, before randomly choosing a left turn? What's the fuller context of this? Lil' Ruby Rose Joined on Wed, Dec 20 2006 Regular Member 879 Enlightenment is always preceded by confusion.

	nona the brit  +  322907 Thu, 01 Feb 07 04:07 PM Try googling it and see what comes up (oooerr). I think it is a joke and he is not really deciding which direction to go in as which woman (one at the end of each road) to go and see. nona the brit Jokes
