The Number of the Beast, sort of

And it came to pass that all those who had the mark upon their head perished, except those who debadged.

Well,the weird thing about numerology is that you have to establish what your ordered universe is, and then proceed to make irrational statements about it. So we accept that the birth of Christ is the important baseline event, then apply illogic to make 6/6/2006 into 6/6/6 ...but to counteract that, apply a Chinese impression of luck when it's not 6/6/2006 on the Chinese calendar anyway.

I just heard about a woman in a local hospital who has ruptured membranes who is holding off on her pitocin (used to induce contractions) until midnight to avoid having a baby on 6/6/6. Only in America.

This stuff is amusing, I admit...
For those interested in why and how people think this way (I know all of the posters are being tongue-in-cheek) there's a neat site:
