the day 6-6-6...

so here we are, june 6, 2006.

i remember being in elementary school, sitting in the back of the library, and figuring out that "we" would be alive on the day 6-6-6. i was completely creeped out. such silliness, such children.

well here we are, and i must say...i'm kind of glad my flight leaves tomorrow morning and not today. :) jay sent me a funny article on this topic, i have pasted a great excerpt below (from www.cnn.com)...

"Commercialism based on numbers and fear bothers American University astronomer Richard Berendzen.
"What it really does is use some coincidence of some numbers for commercial gain," he said. "It's superstition and money when it comes down to it. And that's about as satanic as you can get."
Still scared about the date 666? Jack Horkheimer of the Miami Space Transit Planetarium has a piece of advice: "If it really spooks you, you can stand on your head and it'll be 999."
