I had a classmate who was born on 06-06-66
Hell didn't take over the world then so I'm guessing we'll survive 06-06-06.

BTW - I wonder if the rapture will come on 07-07-07

1. My mother graduated high school on 6/6/66
and she'd probably end my world for publicly posting that. ;)

2. My best HS friend was born on 9/11,
exactly a month before me. I've thought of her fairly often since 2001, wondering how she feels about having had her birthday become so horrifically infamous.:-(

As for the 6-6-6 reference, that was also the phone number of my former auto repair shop, LOL! I thought twice about bringing my car in there, after realizing that, but they were always very nice. I think that these references are just hype, like 1961.:D

As for the rapture, I believe that this is only in the demented dreams of Bush* and Gale Norton...:-(

5. Good point! I never thought of it that way, LOL!
If that's the case, I sure that it happens soon, too...:D

As for Bush*, I have an Arab friend who says that this is why he's so obsessed with the Middle East. He said that Bush* believes that this is where the rapture's going to happen, and so wants to make sure he's right there when it does...:crazy:

15. Sure you can! And the payments too! *grin*
Edited on Mon Jun-05-06 04:51 PM by mwooldri
In fact, if you want to take over payments you can have it off my hands right now!

22. That's what I was going to say, LOL!
You can have my car if you make the payments, meet the insurance bills and fill it with gas, which is about $3-a-gallon, in my neck of the woods...:-(

Welcome to DU, MorningGlow! It's great to have you with us!:toast: (but if the rapture takes place today, who knows how many of us will be here, tomorrow...:crazy:)

26. Payments? I was hoping the loan holders would be hoovered up!
Thanks for the welcome, mwooldri and Rhiannon! I've lurked here for years but finally joined, potential FBI file be damned. (Ah, they've probably got one on me already anyway.)

Thanks for the car offers, but I was kinda hoping for an Omega Man option--walk down the deserted street and start driving one of the ones left sitting there after their owners disappeared.

But here it is, 6-6-06, and I'm still here (I'm not surprised!)--and morning rush hour traffic was just as heavy as ever. Any legions missing in any other neck of the woods?

27. We can only hope, LOL!
And you're most welcome.:-) I've been here for a few years and nobody's knocked on my door... yet...:scared:

It's also crossed my mind that I could end up on some list, but I figure that it's worth taking the chance, since they can't scoop up 90,000 of us all at once!:eyes:

And it's too bad that you'll be stuck with a car with a Bush-Cheney '04 sticker permanently adhered to the bumper...:D

And I have yet to hear of anyone being hoovered up! (I love that, thanks!):rofl:

My nearest and dearest are still accounted for and I think that the denizens of DU are pretty safe on this. Since the Bush* apologists are still broadcasting live on CNN, telling us, every 30 seconds, how nervous we all should be, it doesn't look like the rapture is going to happen today. *sigh*:-( Doesn't anyone else remember that this is D-Day?:shrug:

But has anyone heard from Bush* yet today? He seems conspicuously silent...:evilgrin:

It's great to have you with us...:bounce:

Rhiannon:hi:

But she may feel about as popular as Katrina, since 2001...:-(

25. Thank you! But if you want him, you'll also get his vet bills, LOL!
Just kidding, he's my baby! He's a seven-pound, 12-year-old Brussels Griffon, a fairly rare breed, and he's rescue. Here's more pix of him, on his Dogster page...:D

My little Meneken:loveya:

8. My Ma was born 3-3-33
And Sept 9, 1981(9-9-81) was square root day. 9x9=81. I was working in a sheetmetal shop and the boss announced it over the intercom.

12. The rapture can't come to soon for me.
The only bad thing will be that they are suppose to float up to heaven naked, I'm not looking up.

16. What the idiot fundies don't get:
The book of Revelation was written for the Christians in Rome who were being persecuted at the time to give them hope that something better was coming. When it was first written, they weren't thinking it was in the century 2000. They thought it was going to be with in ten or twenty years. That's how twisted the fundies have gotten. They don't know their asses from a hole in the ground.

17. No--that's the date you'll win at a slot machine!
:)

My niece's birthday is tomorrow, the 6th. She'll be 28. She's a bitch, so there is some evil associated with tomorrow.
