I was planning to go downtown and shout at people through a megaphone, braying that the day of AntiChrist had arrived and that their only hope was to come and grovel at my feet.....but I think I would rather sleep in!
On this sixth day of the sixth month, three scores will cause Vegas oddsmakers eyes to widen in disbelief! Perhaps the Stanley Cup residing in Carolina is apocolyptic enough!

You may have heard that a lot of people all over the world have been praying today, to ward off the dangers of the powers of Evil. Since June 6, 2006 is nearly over, it makes no sense for me to venture a prediction for it. But if I may instead predict something for June 7, 2006, it would be the prayers' reply to the sceptics' observation that the world did not end today: "Ha! That's because we prayed!"
They can't lose, can they? Either the world ends and they're right in their predictions, or the world doesn't end and we have them to thank for it. A typical example of the non-falsifiability of religious belief. But I can't lose either: if they indeed say the world didn't end because they prayed, my prediction has come true. On the other hand, if they don't say it, my prediction will have been falsified. Just as I would have it. I'm feeling lucky...

Funny, I recieved an email about the praying, from someone in my church, and was asked what I thought about it.
I told them, while praying is always a good thing, I do not feel the need to pray about a date. Nothing happened 6/6/6, nothing happened 6/6/106, same on 6/6/1006. Why should I worry about 6/6/2006? I really do not like end of the world stuff. It's always the end for me. At the same time it's not. Why worry?

I think i can safely take the bet that the 7th of July 2007 (07/07/07) is gonna be a lucky day for someone...somewhere
Come to think of it though, I'm also pretty sure that pursuit of the 777 has caused more grief than the 666. Who loves Slipknot's Heretic Song!? Put ya Devil Horns up!

So, are we still here, or did the world end and someone forgot to tell me?

Quetzal writes: So, are we still here, or did the world end and someone forgot to tell me? Well, the bad news is that the world did end. But the good news is that, after he had created the world, God had the sensible idea of making a backup.

Jesus saves.
*cough* Sorry... an old joke, I know, but I couldn't resist. It seemed so appropriate. Ferret brain activity increased just 20 percent when looking at Keanu Reeves compared to looking at darkness, the study found.

Jesus saves Yes, well, but Jesus is of the younger generation. You'd expect him to be savvy. But God is an old geezer, so it's a bit surprising to see him being so modern.

As it is I'm afraid I haven't a clue what you just said. Ferret brain activity increased just 20 percent when looking at Keanu Reeves compared to looking at darkness, the study found.

I'm afraid you lost me there, Trix I think she's talking about soccer. Jesus is the goalie.

Ah! That would explain it, since I don't follow soccer.
Thanks for that, Para. Ferret brain activity increased just 20 percent when looking at Keanu Reeves compared to looking at darkness, the study found.
