Wait...which car?

I got a postcard in the mail this past weekend from my car's manufacturer saying that there was a part recalled. I called on Monday and made an appointment to have it checked out. This morning, instead of taking the shuttle into work, I drove so that I could drop it off in the morning. Once I arrived, they took my car away and took me into the service office. While the gentleman pulled up the car's information he talked with me and asked if I liked my car. I told him that I loved it...in fact so much that I bought two of the exact same cars. A month after I bought the first one, my brother was driving it, got in an accident, and totalled it. So after that, I went out and bought the same exact car again. As I finish this story, the gentleman asked me to come around and look at his computer monitor. It turns out that their computer system said that the recall was already taken care of on my car. I was confused and pulled out the postcard I was sent. Turns out my first car was the one that was recalled...the totalled car that no longer exists!

Do you have a lucky number? Maybe it should be 2. Two of the same cars, two digital cameras, two post cards for vehicles long gone. Yep, your number is definitely TWO.
