Subject: RE: BS: 6-6-06... From: John Hernandez Date: 06 Jun 06 - 12:57 PM Martin Milner is a very accomplished jazz guitarist. He did his own guitar work when he played a jazz musician in the 1957 film "The Sweet Smell of Success" which is now on DVD. The rest of the musicians in the movie were from the Chico Hamilton band. |

Subject: RE: BS: 6-6-06... From: Wesley S Date: 06 Jun 06 - 01:15 PM John - Thanks. I knew my friend wasn't making it up - he's a heck of a guitar player himself and would have spotted if Milner was faking. I wonder if Milner ever recorded anything ? |

Subject: RE: BS: 6-6-06... From: number 6 Date: 06 Jun 06 - 02:40 PM Hey Bobart ... I've been sitting outside my house here since the break of dawn ... my knapsack packed, my harmonica (key of D)in my shirt pocket ... no one has stopped by ... some old 1970's Camaro drove by blasting some AC/DC song though. I dunno ... beginning to think this 6-6-06 stuff is all a bunch of hype. sIx |

Subject: RE: BS: 6-6-06... From: Ebbie Date: 06 Jun 06 - 02:59 PM One of the strangest facets of doomsday(s) is that the believers invariably go out and sell their valuables. What do they plan to do with the money? |

Subject: RE: BS: 6-6-06... From: GUEST,Sori Date: 06 Jun 06 - 06:13 PM "One interesting thing about the Rapture is that it was never mentioned in the bible." Sure, turn this into a religion bashing thread. ;-) Nowadays, instead of a flag decal it's a flag lapel pin for the suit. Or flags on both side of your car (apparently to get you into a presidential motorcade or some such?). Or flag t-shirts with some arrogant and belligerent saying about America and/or Toby Keith. Any of the above, along with a signed declaration that you hate immigrants and gays, and love Bush and the Iraq war, and you are all set for 666 heaven. |

Subject: RE: BS: 6-6-06... From: Bee-dubya-ell Date: 06 Jun 06 - 06:46 PM Hello... Is there anybody there? I just heard a big bang. Okay, not a BIG bang, but a pretty loud bang. All right, it was a neighbor shooting something with a shotgun. But, hey, just a thousand years ago it would have scared the shit out of everybody for miles around. Then they would have made up stories about how someone saw Satan pop out of a hole in the ground at the same time the loud bang happened. Hey, who's that red guy with horns walking down my driveway? |

Subject: RE: BS: 6-6-06... From: Charmain Date: 06 Jun 06 - 07:13 PM Right its now 7/6/06 or 07/06/06 or 06/07/06 if your using that system - whatever, we're all still here I think - these doomsdays are always such a let down... |

Subject: RE: BS: 6-6-06... From: Bobert Date: 06 Jun 06 - 07:28 PM Listen up, folks... Apparently the 40 million or so folks, including the president himself, must have misplaced a decimal point, 'er somethin... But even though it weren't me personally who misplaced the decimal I take personal responsibiltiy for this mishap... So... ... I'm sorry and you can all go unpack yer suitcases... BTW, the way I unnerstand this Rapture thing is that only the good and righteous folks get called up and the Earth is left with the misfits, accordian and banjo players, folks who yell at their kids in the Walmart, etc... You know the types... So havin' been 'round here fit a while I reckon that alot of you folks who have had yer suitcases packed all day were gonna get left behind with the rest of the heathens.... Hey, this is waht I don't get... Ain't this all kinda backwwards??? Like why kill off all the good people and leave the lousy people alive and well??? Shouldn't it be the other way around??? Nevermind... Bobert |

Subject: RE: BS: 6-6-06... From: Bobert Date: 06 Jun 06 - 10:31 PM Am I, Eb??? Feelin' more like Major Tom... Maybe just worked too hard today... Yeah, I know I accepted personal responsiblity for the Rapture failure but right 'bout now, I ain't too sure it didn't happen... I'm beat.... The P-Vine is still in North Carolina havin' her nervous breakdown and, hey, maybe this was the rapture and they is backed up and gonna get me in a few minutes, I don't know??? Don't much care either... Like I said, "I'm beat".... |

Subject: RE: BS: 6-6-06... From: open mike Date: 07 Jun 06 - 01:27 AM well don't tell me the devil don't exist the christians keep him alive and well by mentioning his name over and over again. that give him power as far as i can see. that and the fact that as soon as the clock struck midnight this morning (*june 6) there was a call on my fire pager that we were being called to go an extinguish...as soon as that one was put out, another one cropped up. before the night was over (at 4 a.m.) we had responded to a total of 14 fires, one after the other.. definately the devil made him do it... arson = satan |

Subject: RE: BS: 6-6-06... From: robomatic Date: 07 Jun 06 - 05:33 PM Joe: Thought you were Catholic, which to me is FFF (Far From Fundamentalist). Last night on one of my favorite AM shows, CoastToCoastAM, the Art Bell inheritor, George Noory, had on a Jesuit Priest who gave a very liberal and logical interpretation of 666 and the Book Of Revelations. He gave a very good and modern impression of Today's Church that Cardinal Cushing, JXXIII, and JPII could be proud of. No sooner had he left the air then all the conspiracy buffs, ET-phone home fanatics, and Card Carrying Fundies called in and trashed him! |

Subject: RE: BS: 6-6-06... From: Little Hawk Date: 07 Jun 06 - 06:32 PM Heh! I note that we're all still here...except CarolC, that is. ;-) My dog is still here too. It figures. He has an extremely bad character and is bent on world domination. |

Subject: RE: BS: 6-6-06... From: CarolC Date: 07 Jun 06 - 07:04 PM I'm back now, LH. It was lonely up there all by myself. |

Subject: RE: BS: 6-6-06... From: Bobert Date: 07 Jun 06 - 09:24 PM I told you they wouldn't let that accorian in, CarolC... But.... welcome back... |

Subject: RE: BS: 6-6-06... From: number 6 Date: 07 Jun 06 - 09:27 PM LH ... are you sure you have a dog ... I think it could be a jackal. :) sIx |

Subject: RE: BS: 6-6-06... From: CarolC Date: 07 Jun 06 - 10:03 PM They kept the accordion, Bobert. They wanted me to give them lessons, but I wanted to get back here with my friends, so I gave them a raincheck. They said no problem, they'd be there waiting when I returned. For now, they're just trying to figure out how to get the straps over their wings. |

Subject: RE: BS: 6-6-06... From: Little Hawk Date: 07 Jun 06 - 10:09 PM He's a dachshund, Number 6. They are capable of anything...morally speaking. Their lowly stature, however, has prevented them from attaining power in high places, and we can all be thankful for that! |

Subject: RE: BS: 6-6-06... From: CarolC Date: 07 Jun 06 - 10:13 PM Believe him, number 6, it's true. |

Subject: RE: BS: 6-6-06... From: Scoville Date: 07 Jun 06 - 11:40 PM Well, that was anticlimactic, wasn't it? 7/6/06 and I'm still here. I was hoping we'd at least have a fire drill at work or something to make life interesting--send those sleeping med students scrambling. Oh, well. |

Subject: RE: BS: 6-6-06... From: Little Hawk Date: 08 Jun 06 - 03:56 PM It's 8/6/06 and the shit has still not hit the fan. You just can't depend on anything anymore! |

Subject: RE: BS: 6-6-06... From: Phil Cooper Date: 08 Jun 06 - 04:19 PM My fundamentalist great-grandparents got married on 6-6-06 one hundred years ago. I got the impression that they didn't make a big deal of the 666 thing back then. At least not in their particular church. My great-grandfather told me a lot of stories from his youth and mentioned the wedding date with pride. Any numerical significance didn't cross his mind. Let people get fussed if they want. |

Subject: RE: BS: 6-6-06... From: Wolfgang Date: 08 Jun 06 - 04:20 PM Never mind, they'll adjust the date and if something happens at any time, there'll be people telling the significance of the date in retrospect. I follow since some time the predictions for the date of the "American Hiroshima" for study purposes. About twice or three times a year it has been predicted to happen since 2001: At the end of Ramadan, 666 days after 9/11, the day before yesterday,.... Failed predictions never prevent new predictions (even by the same people) to crop up. Wolfgang |
|
Subject: RE: BS: 6-6-06... From: Little Hawk Date: 08 Jun 06 - 05:03 PM The great thing about a failed prediction, Wolfgang, is that it instantly clears the slate for a whole lot of new predictions to be brought forward. ;-) Or in the well chosen words of Jackson Browne... "don't think it won't happen just because it hasn't happened yet" |
