The Number Four Means DEATH in Japanese...

In the event of my death... I normally avoid even numbers,  especially even numbers in the increment of four.  I , while sipping the delicious beverage i concocted myself earlier, glanced down upon the surface and counted....  ... .. . 8 ice cubes. AAAAAAArgh! I said. That is shi@te luck, for sure. At which point, moments later, I TIPPED THE DRINK APON MY UNSUSPECTING COMPUTER...and dried it off.
                                          If there had been three ice cubes, it may not have occurred?
                                                          Four? I may have choked on one and died...
                                                                And it would have melted,
                                                                     And you all would be wondering
                                                                                 What killed me.  -h.
