Well, it either will or won’t be that date one year from today. I happen to agree with you that it will. Discussion over.
Ok. Great opinion.
If you stand on your head exactly one year from today it will be 90/90/90.

Oh, wow.
That clown is pretty.
if you take out the zeros, it would be 6/6/6 . Is there a significance to that? More than likely not, but I thought it might be interesting to mention ![]()
That’s what I mentioned.
The Birthday of the Beast? ![]()
Redwolf
That one’s up for grabs (Book of Revelations - the number of the beast is 666). Some scholars are now arguing that the original was misread, and that the correct interpretation is 999.

Well, you never really know…
I nominate Gilder for having the best reply thus far.
It’s true.
Did something special happen on June 6th, 1006? Or 1666?
Anyway the fact that historians are not sure of the actual date of birth of JC makes the problem irrelevant. Maybe the real birthday of the beast was yesteray ![]()
I don’t think it makes it irrelevant at all. To the contrary, I think not knowing the exact month, day, hour, and minute of Christ’s birth makes thinking about all this stuff more interesting.
Everybody agrees that the current calander we use is “off” by a few years, but we don’t know exactly how many.
Get out your tin-foil hats, a weird co-ink-ee-dink just happened.

Cranberry initiated this post about 06/06/06, right… but look what happened on 05/05/05.
If anyone has an idea what exactly this might mean – please share it with us.
Animal study: Compounds in cranberries may have heart-healthy effects
Public release date: 5-May-2005
MADISON - Compounds that occur naturally in cranberries may be good for the heart, researchers at the University of Wisconsin-Madison have found.
Early results from studies indicate that feeding cranberry juice powder seems to relax and open blood vessels in pigs that are genetically susceptible to developing atherosclerosis, or clogged arteries. Kris Kruse-Elliott, a veterinary anesthesiologist at the UW-Madison School of Veterinary Medicine, presented her results at the American Physiological Society’s annual meeting in San Diego in April.
She and co-researcher Jess Reed, a nutritionist in the Department of Animal Sciences, set out to evaluate various whole foods that contain antioxidants, flavonoids and polyphenols, all compounds that may protect against heart disease. Cranberries contain all three, so they fed cranberry juice powder to pigs that were genetically predisposed to develop high cholesterol and atherosclerosis, just as some humans are.
“When these pigs were fed cranberry juice powder made from whole cranberries for six months, their vessels acted more like normal pigs,” Kruse-Elliott says, meaning that the pigs’ blood vessels relaxed and opened more.
Abnormal blood vessel function is an important component of heart disease. Finding ways to improve vessel function in patients with high cholesterol and atherosclerosis is critical to helping protect these patients from consequences such as heart attack or stroke.
“The next step is to determine what specific components of cranberries are most important to the improvements in vascular function that we observed, exactly how they modify blood vessel relaxation, and how they can be most easily consumed as part of the diet,” Kruse-Elliott says. That last factor may be key. While pigs may not mind the intense tartness of concentrated cranberries, someone will need to make cranberry juice powder palatable to people before the next “heart-protection” diet is born.
I like cranberry juice, but I can only drink so much of it at a time because it’s a little bit bitter.
Christ was born on the 25th of December, in the year of our Lord 1.
if you add together XXV, XII, and I, you get 38. Now if you subtract that from the date in question, which is VI+VI+MMVI=MMXVIII, you arrive at 1980, which was the year of the final episode of Hawaii 5-0, the last episode of which was entitled Woe To Wo Fat, which can only mean that low fat diets are not the wave of the future.
I believe Walden has stumbled upon one of the greatest secrets of humankind.
No, the Birthday of the Beast was 3/5/55
