OK.
I'm an Old man.
This one went right over my head.
I can see "Lo-cal" but that is more a description than a number, or even a digit for that matter.

:please: and :thankyou:

I think you have to notice that the word contains LAN, and any IP address contains a whole bunch of numbers.
Or perhaps you need a needle to administer the local anaesthetic, and that looks very like a 1.

Well actually I have tried to make an appointment, but he's never around at 2:30.

When I first saw this one, I didn't get it. Then about three hours later, out of the blue (I was watching TV at the time), it just came to me.
