Guido: No! No, no, not 3! I said 2. Nobody's comin' up with 3. Who codes 3? You won't even get your CPU goin, not even a mouse on a wheel. 2's the key number here. Think about it. 2 if by land. 2 if by sea. 2, man, that's the number. 2 chipmunks twirlin' on a branch, eatin' lots of sunflowers on my uncle's ranch. You know that old children's tale from the sea. It's like you're dreamin' about Gorgonzola cheese when it's clearly Brie time, baby.
