I think technically you gave out composite numbers not prime numbers.
 A prime number is a positive integer that has exactly two positive integer factors, 1 and itself. For example, if we list the factors of 28, we have 1, 2, 4, 7, 14, and 28. That's six factors. If we list the factors of 29, we only have 1 and 29. That's two factors. So we say that 29 is a prime number, but 28 isn't. Another way of saying this is that a prime number is a positive integer that is not the product of two smaller positive integers. Note that the definition of a prime number doesn't allow 1 to be a prime number: 1 only has one factor, namely 1. Prime numbers have exactly two factors, not "at most two" or anything like that. When a number has more than two factors it is called a composite number. Here are the first few prime numbers: 2, 3, 5, 7, 11, 13, 17, 19, 23, 29, 31, 37, 41, 43, 47, 53, 59, 61, 67, 71, 73, 79, 83, 89, 97, 101, 103, 107, 109, 113, 127, 131, 137, 139, 149, 151, 157, 163, 167, 173, 179, 181, 191, 193, 197, 199, etc.

Perhaps Imaginary Numbers might work better for you..
These are all based on the imaginary number i. This imaginary number is equal to the square root of negative one. Any real number times i is an imaginary number. Examples include i, 3i, -9.3i, and (pi)

.....and don't get me started on Complex Numbers
A Complex Numbers is a combination of a real number and an imaginary number in the form a + bi. The real part is a, and b is called the imaginary part. Examples include 4 + 6i, 2 + (-5)i, (often written as 2 - 5i), 3.2 + 0i, and 0 + 2i. Note the last two examples: 3.2 + 0i is just the real number 3.2. All real numbers are complex numbers with zero for the imaginary part. 0 + 2i is just the imaginary number 2i. All imaginary numbers are complex numbers with zero for the real part.

Well I'm sure you're all very pleased with your snotty little games.
I should reveal that I am currently being treated for clinical depression. I try to get rid of my clinic by coming here and putzing around,but it doesn't work anymore. And so...I'm leaving.

I am sorry I upset Morte and he departed.
He could have been the Dr.SwineSmeller of the College Pigskin Report. He could have been one of the great ones..no the greatest!  I hope his depression is a tropical one.
