what is E! ?
"What drug are you on?"
"E!"
E! the network
E! Entertainment Television (http://www.eonline.com) is a cable television channel devoted to entertainment industry news and meta-entertainment (metatainment?). If your cable system gets E!, you can watch the following shows:
E!'s logo consists of a red trapezoid and rectangle arranged to form an exclamation point; contained inside the trapezoid is a white capital E. The following is a rough ASCII art approximation of the E! logo:
MMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM
MM) MM
MM) MM
MM) MMMMMMMM
MM) MMMMMMMM
MM) MMMMMMMM
(MM (M)
(MM (M)

E!'s parent company (E! Networks) also owns the style. network (http://www.stylenetwork.com/), which appears to be a cross between HGTV and a fashion show.
E! the integer
As bis mentioned, in the hexadecimal number system, E equals fourteen, and E!, the factorial of E, that is, E*D*C*B*A*9*8*7*6*5*4*3*2*1, equals 144C3B2800.
E! the real number
It's possible to take the factorial of almost any real number (except negative integers) using Euler's gamma function, a generalization of the factorial. Thus e!, the factorial of Euler's number, becomes Γ(e + 1) = 4.260820474.
