Umm, never-mind . . . .
Huck and Jim were the first that brought this to my attention. But yesterday's NYTimes reminded me about it. They ran this AP ditty about tomorrow's date - 6-6-06, and all the 666 antichrist hoopla and witicisms.
Putting aside the real potential that the 666 mark is a typo (and putting way aside that it's all just mythology anyway) I was somewhat surprised that in all the fun and games that the AP spent on this hard news story, including references to several former presidents who fit the "666" mold, neither they nor the Times editors pointed out that tomorrow is also the 60th birthday of George W. Bush. {no, he was born 7/6/46 -- sorry about that}
I mean, the Times spent several months investigating how many weekends the Clintons spent in the same house, but they couldn't devote any resources to exposing the potential that the antichrist is in the White House?
What's the world coming to when we can no longer rely on the Old Gray Lady to provide us with the level of journalism we've come to expect from the National Enquirer?
Wereport screw-up. You decide.

Actually, I think Chimpy's birthday is July 6. But it doesn't matter, since the world failed to end on June 6, 1906. And June 6, 1806. And June 6, 1706. Etc.
Oh, crap. That's what I get for messing with someone else's mythology.
You are right, Roxtar. GWB was born on July 6, 1946. But, if you take the "1" in his year of birth from the "4", you get three, and taking that from the 9 gets you 6 + the 6 from his year of birth and the 6 from his date of birth, there ya go - 666. Knew it could be found in there somewhere.
Oh well.
Hey, you heard about this bible code business . . . .
Yeah, my bad...
I blame my weakening eyesight, not my $80 a day heroin habit.
My fault, I should have checked it better.
Doesn't matter, isn't the world ending today?
(Gotta love Major League Baseball -- someone has a sense of humor -- tonight's big matchup -- the Angels vs. the Devil Rays.)
