I have noticed that this is 'off topic' number 666. It will also be post number 6666.
With the date 06-06-06 looming upon us, do you think I should have started this post?

This is weird....& starting to make me wonder 
Went shopping today & parked the car in the pay & display. On returning to the car with shopping, loaded it in the boot, & reversed out. It was at this point I noticed that the car parked next to me had the numbers '666' in the number plate.

In my country some people go to a priest to bless their cars and their engines, so that the car will stay away from trouble

When Iron Maiden's 'Number of the beast' was being recorded I seem to remember reading that alot of weird things started to happen in the studio, like guitars mysteriously going out of tune, & Bruce thingyenson suddenly getting a sore throat. Also Master tapes not recording what was being played, but recording white noise instead.
Pinch of salt, possibly
It's Bruce thingyenson...but this site changes his name because it's got thingy in it @
Come on...guys....how can you censor someone's surname....just because it has the shortened version of Richard in it?
Put it in context .... Or is it some kind of malevolent infiltration?
