I used to know a guy who was born on June 6 1966. I wouldn't call him evil.

I never realized that 2006 = 6...or does Revelations use the modern dd/mm/yy format?

Do you realize that today is the Canadian National Young Eagles Day?

I'm thrilled!

In the Greater Jubanese Islands, of Medionesia, it's national weird, purple jellyfish day. They stretch a weird, purple jellyfish out like a rubber blanket and toss people up into the air for a while. Then they bake the jellyfish in the ground and have a feast. Then they're up all night with runny diarrhea. It's great, believe me.

Ha! Imagine how many people were praying at 6:06 on the 6th of June, 666 AD.

I have heard about this - the origins of island "jelly-dancing", which was later translated incorrectly as "belly-dancing".

I did not realize that until you pointed it out. Now I am going back to not realizing it.

Yep, especially since a year from today would now be 6/8/06. Not very exciting at all. :rolleyes:

Want me to tell you what's happening over here in the future? :biggrin:

Oh my word. My membership for my pool hall expires on 6/6/6. From this I can deduce that lack of pool is the root of all evil. Thats one more excuse to be in the student union bar rather than the library. Woo!
