Counting never stops

Post by buttercup »

You can always add 1 or multiply, its endless.

In words what's the highest number you can think of?

Example - Nine hundred & eighty nine million,

nine hundred & sixty four thousand,

three hundred & twenty one.

1 googol



or



10,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000



Ouch :thinking:
The poolhall's a great equalizer. In the poolhall, nobody cares how old you are, how young you are, what color your skin is or how much money you've got in your pocket... It's about how you move. I remember this kid once who could move around a pool table like nobody had ever seen. Hour after hour, rack after rack, his shots just went in. The cue was part of his arm and the balls had eyes. And the thing that made him so good was... He thought he could never miss. I know, 'cause that kid was me.
