favorite numbers

A mathematician in Britain is doing a study on favorite numbers (here).

My favorite number is 13.  I was born on the 13th of October and have always loved that it is the spookiest number of the spookiest month.  13 is an underdog and I have always had a thing for underdogs.  The more people try to keep it out, the more I love it. It's the same reason I always try to remember to pronounce my h's.

My trig professor randomly told me to pick any number for a problem we were doing in class ... and I chose 13! It's always the first number that pops into my head.
