Aggh.. for the past few days I've been agonising over "what pun?" This 
image has no pun. What are they talking about, its just a sequence of 
numbers. So I looked, nothing in the numbers. So I stared: Nothing in 
the shadows. I don't get it. I just don't get it.

Then I reread the whole thing about pun images. and... wham, I looked at 
the numbers again. Clever.
