    I wonder how many Highway 666 signs were knicked over the years? How many still hang in Pub’s,Garage’s or basements?

    Bummer. I’ve driven from Seattle to Albuquerque probably 30 times, and I always look forward to hooking up with 666 in Cortez, CO. I try to have Highway to Hell playing. 491 kinda takes the wind out of those sails.

    the road itself is home to many evangelical christian tents- it’s Navajo land, but in many ways it is as heavy into the fire and brimstone bible thumping as any part of the deep south

    I bought one of the sign shop’s leftover aluminum 666 signs through ebay years ago for about $15, as I remember. It holds a cherished spot on my office wall. What’s it worth today? Anybody?

    Zorg, they’re all wrong. When the scriptural chronicles of our times are unearthed millenia from now, I think they’ll conclude that the Number of the Beast was 43.

    …I was going to make some kind of reference to Adams, but couldn’t make it click in a witty way.

    I was really hoping that my number would be 666…but as it turns out Soul Rebel = 762. How disappointing, more delusions of grandeur hopelessly smashed.

    Although…and this is entirely weird now…the first three letters of my 5-digit security code below are 666…and the last two are DC. (No lie, wish I could take a screenshot)

    Hmmm….

    I wonder…

    Nope, Obama is only 114.
