for those that are not aware, a yogism is an expression that yogi berra coined that has a certain ironic profoundness because they are profound and it doesnt seem like yogi meant to be profound.. my favorite is: when you come to the fork in the road, take it.

Do you have a favorite piece of music?

by MorpheuzX in

i don't know if this thread has been covered before; do you have a favorite song or piece of music or performer?

i know the question seems juvenile.

but, i'm curious.. mine, i think, is a tie between wladyslaw szpilman's performance of chopin's nocturne in c-sharp minor and angela hewitt's version of bach's goldberg variations -- the aria is divine!.

how about

Ministry: So What?, Cannibal Song, Dream Song (these are a little hypnotic)

White Zobmie: Soul Crusher, Welcome to Planet Motherf*****

Sonic Mayhem: Enter Big Gun

Megadeth: Take No Prisoners, Peace Sells, Mary Jane

MadTV : Lick My Baby Back Behind (Britney), Wrong Song (Sisco), Posin' (Limp Biskit)

777 vs. 666

by Leolaia in

i've heard 777 or 7777 used as a godly number in christian televangelist hotline numbers, 777music.com is a christian music online store, and the number is supposed to represent an ideally perfect number representing god and his creation.

but it strikes me as a pallid ripoff of 666, and nothing in the bible seems to produce a higher order number above 70 (7 x 10) with 7.

144,000 is of course based on 12 and 10. and contrary to it being such a godly number, it seems to have been the subject to a book on gematria and the kabbalah by satan incarnate himself, aleister crowley.

well if the devil was one upping god with 666 then crowley one upped the devil with 777 but I think 666 was a more profound "one up."

Of course the devil probably didnt come up with 666 it was more likely just applied to him. It does have a certain mystique though there is no doubt. Its kind of like the Swastika.

Jehovah's Witness prank -- Reno 911

by FirstInLine in

garcia and the black guy on reno 911 stopped two guys guns drawn, felony arrest procedures really aggresively and were very agitated and nervous sounding as they forced these guys to the ground reciting the apb and suspect derscription.. garcia ordered one to toss his satchel as he was on his ground.

the other guy checked it out and he said "its ok false alarm they're jehovah's witnesses, its ok false alarm.".

"ok boys sorry for the misunderstanding have a nice day.".

All the time they are crying and terrified. And then back in the car the cops are lauguing,

"aha we got em good"

"haha APB my ass."

it was funny.

7 is considered a holy number. I assume you would agree. 3 has a way of showing completion in the bible. Like something 3 times. peter denied jesus 3 times, holy holy holy is the Lord, Father(1) Son(2) Holy Spirit(3), Jesus rose on the 3rd day,....etc

6 is just short of the holy 7. In six days god made the world and on the seventh he rested. Remember the Sabbath and keep it holy. By removing the sabbath day number the 6 becomes and unholy number. 6 Therefore can be said to represent toil, ambition, restlessness. It is expressed in its completeness by 666. 666 therefore is a very unholy number symbolically. Its putting emphasis on "coming up short" and ignores the fullness in 7. 666 is not so much counter expressive to 777 but a blasphemous assault on 7.

edit(forgot the point)

666 is a counter to 7. So 777 in turn is a counter to 666. Yes. Youve got it. It is a bit up a "one up" on the devil.
