Sorry.
The cool kids know the real number of the beast is 616.
;-)
My phone exchange is 666 — that leads to some interesting comments from people!
When I lived in Montreal the LDS chapel was located at 6666 Terrebonne Avenue. I was told the missionaries HATED giving out that address!! LOL!
For similar jokes (but not half as funny) and some commentary on the 616 theme, see the BCC post from a year ago: New Number of the Beast.
I heard that lots of pregnant women are trying to make it to their babies do NOT have this date as their birthday. Can’t say I blame them. Oh, the poor kid that has 06/06/06 as his birthday!
Heather,
In high school, we all got student ID numbers, that were used to give our grades and whatnot. My student ID number was 0666. (Kaimi’s co-bloggers say: “Ahh – that explains it.”)
The other Mormon kids thought it was pretty funny, and joked about it. Meanwhile, there was a black-wearing, Iron-Maiden-listening girl in my math class, who was quite jealous of me for my student ID number.
If my wife were to give birth on 6-6-06, I would name my kid “Damian.” Really. That would be so cool.

Writing this on June 7 –
My brother-in-law’s wife had their second child yesterday morning.
My brother-in-law was rather proud of the significance of the date and gleefully reminded mom of that fact.
“Walmart price of the Beast: $599.99”
Don’t Walmart prices almost always end in .88?

You’ve probably all seen it on Drudge, but if not… perhaps a relative of Adam’s:

I am sure there are lots of evil babies May and June happen to be the month of all the birthdays. I have a son born in June and his birthday party always gets planned on the same day as one of his friends.
