Definitely

Ok, here's finally an update on my phone at work

: I got one today

Also, a hilarious thing happened: the lady from the tech department installs the thing, tells me to try it out and hands me a sheet with basic instructions for the phone and the phone number... I'm not kidding, it contained two 47s!!!

I'm grinning ear to ear and she looks at me a little weirdly, finally taking the sheet away again to check it

: Oh, sorry she says - that isn't your new number, I got the wrong office - let me get you the right sheet...

tl;dr

Now I have no 4 or 7 in my work phone number after all

**Violent Delights** · 10-23-2015, 02:37 PM

dammit, you were so close!

**Big Head want Dolly** · 10-24-2015, 06:53 AM

I know, right?!

**Violent Delights** · 10-24-2015, 07:47 AM

I'd have told them I'd move offices to keep it.

**Big Head want Dolly** · 10-24-2015, 11:35 PM

I like my current office-mates too much to do that ... sorry, Rambaldi/47

**Violent Delights** · 10-25-2015, 07:32 AM

well I understand that

**Big Head want Dolly** · 12-21-2015, 06:29 AM

My seat in the train back home was #47

**Violent Delights** · 12-21-2015, 02:37 PM

Intentionally?

**Big Head want Dolly** · 12-22-2015, 08:01 AM

No, coincidentally

**Violent Delights** · 12-22-2015, 03:48 PM

but you'd have been annoyed with 46/48, right?

**Big Head want Dolly** · 12-24-2015, 06:11 AM

Oh, absolutely

**Violent Delights** · 12-25-2015, 05:51 PM

great that you got it then.

I know I mentioned it in the JJ thread, but here's the references in Cloverfield.

Quote:

J.J. Abrams has used the number 47 extensively on past projects. In Alias (2001) it played great importance as a page on Rambaldi's manuscript, and as a recurring pointer to important motifs. It should come as no surprise that "Cloverfield" is the designation to the case of the images found on Area US-447. Also, in the scenes where they're taking the stairs up to the top of the skyscrapers to save Beth, one of the floor numbers filmed is the 47th.
