So, that morning when I got to my jobsite, I parked with 8 sevens in a row displayed, and would never have noticed if I didn't have to always check my mileage cuz the gauge didn't show propane levels, and the only way to avoid running out was to keep an eye on my mileage.
But 13 is my lucky number, though my fiance was born July of 77 too, same as you.

I dont know how to feel about this whole number thing. However, I do have a significant number that at the very least tests the notion of "coinicedence"...... 39.
My wife is hoping I dont die at 39 (me either) Ironically, I will be 39 shortly after Dec, 21 2012

You seem to have an interesting position on this topic and I usually enjoy reading your posts.
Do you have any thoughts on my situation regarding number "39"? I'd like to hear you opinion on the the "coincidences" I provided above.
Peace

Damn!
I have to say that I notice people always do the Sign of the Beast when they are busy "Thanking the people" that got them there. Its kind of strange, saying one thing, and yet, doing a hand signal most would not even notice.
And those that notice would say "Its a coincidence"
Well, when I came home from noticing this, guess what time it was?

Hmmm... Stay aware people.
Maybe they'll have to. Recently a 1,500-year-old papyrus manuscript was examined, using new technologies to "read" the heretofore illegible script. The document is written in Greek and is the oldest known version of the Book of the Revelation. The tiny fragment confirms what many scholars and churchmen have long suspected. The text actually reads:
"Here is wisdom. Let him that hath understanding count the number of the beast: for it is the number of a man: and his number is 616."
what does this mean for us????????

The number 666 is strange and wonderful. But what would happen if we were to discover that there had been some kind of mistake and that 666 was not the number Saint John referred to in the 17th verse of the 13th chapter of his book? Would the nature of evil change? Would satanic rock bands have to change their tattoos?

On the death of Callimachus in about 240 BC, Eratosthenes became the third librarian at Alexandria, in the library in a temple of the Muses called the Mouseion. The library is said to have contained hundreds of thousands of papyrus and vellum scrolls.
Eratosthenes made a surprisingly accurate measurement of the circumference of the Earth. Details were given in his treatise On the measurement of the Earth which is now lost. However, some details of these calculations appear in works by other authors such as Cleomedes, Theon of Smyrna and Strabo. Eratosthenes compared the noon shadow at midsummer between Syene (now Aswan on the Nile in Egypt) and Alexandria. He assumed that the sun was so far away that its rays were essentially parallel, and then with a knowledge of the distance between Syene and Alexandria, he gave the length of the circumference of the Earth as 250,000 stadia.
Ptolemy tells us that Eratosthenes measured the tilt of the Earth's axis with great accuracy obtaining the value of 11/83 of 180 , namely 23 51' 15".
Eratosthenes writings include the poem 'Hermes', inspired by astronomy, as well as literary works on the theatre and on ethics which was a favourite topic of the Greeks. Eratosthenes is said to have became blind in old age and it has been claimed that he committed suicide by starvation.

Funny thing is when I was just looking at the values at the atomic level, I started to form ideas about creation vs. evolution. Mathematics is part of everything physical, here on earth. Mathematics has existed for a very long time.
