True?

Coincidence or not???

The name Steve Jobs has 9 letters
Macintosh also has 9 letters
Cupertino, 9 letters
Powerbook, also 9 letters.

Sooo, we wont have Intel Powerbooks on Jan 10th. Only iBooks.

All coincidences. If you look hard enough you can find patterns to make you believe anything. Still, it's definately interesting stuff. I really liked the movie Pi which was about patterns and numerology, but I don't wanna get off-topic.

I want my money back whenever someone wastes my time with an insipid urban legendy type pile of crap.

Only logical response

I have that same pic that I saved a while back. Hilarious!

I'm glad I found this thread (when I searched for Q33NY knowing I'd find an older thread about that) because there is a thread about the 11 thing on a local skateboard forum I go to and no one is questioning it. The people on this forum are mostly kids in junior high and high-school and none of them are overly bright so I'm glad I'm able to burst their bubble. They also posted the video about the Pentagon and the airplane crash (I'll post link if you guys are interested but I'd like to hear feedback from people who have already seen it first).

This thread has again proven how Macrumors is full of smart people who are able to questions things that are thrown in their face.

Thanks.

eleven is cool

every month has an 11th day

there is an 11th hour in the morning, in fact every morning

same goes for an 11th hour at night

11 of the 12 original disciples were true to the end

phil simms, former quarterback of the NEW YORK giants, wore #11

Yeah...I buy that stuff about as much as I buy the Bible Code.

I will say that this is strange...9/11/2001 was the release date of Bob Dylan's Love and Theft. I picked my copy up at a midnight sale. I put it in my car and listened to it on my way home from the store and to school that next morning. By the time I left, all of the damage had been done (though the actual collapse of the World Trade Center buildings happened while I was in the car). Anyway, I got into my car to leave. The CD had been played through and started playing track 1 again, "Tweedle-Dee & Tweedle-Dum" (Click for Lyrics). The first few verses of that song have some strange symbolism given the circumstances.

Bob Dylan: prophet? Eh...probably not.

[hope I don't get in trouble for posting a link to some lyrics...]

I honestly want to punch whoever wrote all those facts in the face. Even if they are all 100% true, what the hell does it matter? I see 12 on the top of ever clock, should I get worried about that too? Or I think I should lock myself in my safe room because all the phone numbers around here start with 215. Freaking morons.

actually i saw this travel clock by movado with no numbers on it (like most of their watches)...super cool, but i was afraid to ask what that thing cost

i could imagine being in a deep sleep then having that expensive movado travel clock awake me and me accidentaly slamming the snooze on it too hard and breaking the darn thing
