How do you name your counters? (copied from scripting tips?)

Someone asked in the scripting tips forum a question about what terms people use for their loop index variables, "How do you name your counters?"

I am not gonna clutter up the scripting tips forum with inane comments. Instead, I am posting the question here and providing my own inane answer to it.

My answer is:

"Kitchen and bathroom."

Please indulge me. I failed to pay my electric bill and I have no power at home. I am stuck at work using a dial-up service. Dial-up! Aighhhhh!

I call (named) my counters 'fingers'.
