Look what happens when a President gets elected in a year with a "0" at the end. Also notice it goes in increments of 20 years.

And to think that we had two guys fighting it out in the courts to be the one elected in 2000.

LOL Soon as I can reload, aim and fire a manually loaded rifle twice in 3 seconds and hit a target I can't see which is beyond my maximum range. ;)

Oh, I also found out that a week before he was assassinated, Lincoln was in Monroe, guess where Kennedy was a week before he was assasinated? ;)

LOL Well, in Kennedy's case, it was Marilyn Monroe ;)

It's the name Monroe that is important, as long as you can get him to either go to Monroe, or hang around with someone called Monroe, you might be onto a winner ;)

Did you also know that the 9/11 attacks and the Madrid bombings happened exactly 911 days apart? Aside from the fact that one is 9/11 and the other is 3/11, seperated by exactly 3 years. On 6/11, 2007, watch out.

Read something interesting today. Apparently, 9/11 was supposed to be including 10 planes, and on the anniversary of the USS Cole bombings.

I heard about this thing, it was suposed to be an indian curse or some such, I was actualy expecting Bush to get assassanated on his inauguration, oh well, we've still got four more years :)

(soposedly Reagan's survival of the curse may have broken it)

Maybe Bush will be assasinated in a warehouse while he was on his way to a theater, later to be realised that the assassin was from his own office?
