I Spy the Number 666

Tweet

People who have read the book of Revelation in the New Testament likely know about the Number 666. Over the years I've heard or read all kinds of interpretations as to what this number really means. This discussion is not about the meaning of the number. It's just that over the years I've developed a habit of playing “I spy” with this number. When I'm looking at or listening to something, if I see or hear the number “666” it's sort of like an “I spy” moment. You know what I mean? That cute game that kids play ... "I spy with my little eye ...". Today I had an "I spy" moment and I'm kind of surprised where I saw this number. I joined this site 4 years ago and as of today, January 18, 2019, I have received 666 Suggestions of posts to read and comment on. WOW! That many???? Just out of curiosity, I Googled to see how many MyLot discussions have the number 666. 94 results popped out. Not all the results are discussions though. It seems that some members here have the number in their user name and those names popped out in the search results too. But I think I am going to check the discussions in the search results. Could be interesting. Fun Fact: "The game I Spy originated in the early 20th century. The Oxford English Dictionary (OED) defines it, under Spy giving the earliest citation as a mention in Rosamond Lehmann's 1946 work The Gipsy's Baby." (Source: Wikipedia)
