I got this from another Forum, Deulistsunlimited.

4) George W Bush has 11 letters.

This could be a mere coincidence, but this gets more interesting:
1) New York is the 11th state.

2) The first plane crashing against the Twin Towers was flight number 11.
3) Flight 11 was carrying 92 passengers. 9 + 2 = 11

4) Flight 77 which also hit Twin Towers, was carrying 65 passengers. 6+5 = 11

5) The tragedy was on September 11, or 9/11 as it is now known. 9 + 1+ 1 = 11

6) The date is equal to the US emergency services telephone number\ 911. 9 + 1 + 1 = 11.

Sheer coincidence..?! Read on and make up your own mind:

1) The total number of victims inside all the hi-jacked planes was 254. 2 + 5 + 4 = 11.

2) September 11 is day number 254 of the calendar year. Again 2 + 5 + 4 = 11.

3) The Madrid bombing took place on 3/11/2004. 3 + 1 + 1 + 2 + 4 = 11.

4) The tragedy of Madrid happened 911 days after the Twin Towers incident. 9+1+1=11.

Now this is where things get totally eerie:

The most recognised symbol for the US, after the Stars & Stripes, is the Eagle. The following verse is taken from the Quran, the Islamic holy book:

"For it is written that a son of Arabia would awaken a fearsome Eagle. The wrath of the Eagle would be felt throughout the lands of Allah and lo, while some of the people trembled in despair still more rejoiced: for the wrath of the Eagle cleansed the lands of Allah and there was peace."
That verse is number 9.11 of the Quran. Again- 9+1+1=11

Still uncovinced about all of this?

Try this and see how you feel afterwards. This kinda creeped me out a tad bit.

Just do this. Of course this crap is not real but it still creeps the hell out of me.

Open Microsoft Word and do the following:
1. Type in capitals Q33 NY. This is the flight number of the first plane to hit one of the Twin Towers.
2. Highlight the Q33 NY.
3. Change the font size to 48.
4. Change the actual font to the WINGDINGS
What do you think now?!!

Oh my God! How worried should I be? There are 11 letters in the name "David Pawson!" I'm going into hiding NOW. See you in a few weeks.

Wait a sec ... just realized "YOU CAN'T HIDE" also has 11 letters! What am I gonna do? Help me!!! The terrorists are after me! ME! I can't believe it!

Oh crap, there must be someplace on the planet Earth I could hide! But no ..."PLANET EARTH" has 11 letters, too!

Maybe Nostradamus can help me. But dare I trust him? There are 11 letters in "NOSTRADAMUS."

I know, the Red Cross can help. No they can't... 11 letters in "THE RED CROSS," can't trust them.

I would rely on self defense, but "SELF DEFENSE" has 11 letters in it, too! Can someone help?

Anyone? If so, send me email. No, don't... "SEND ME EMAIL" has 11 letters....

Will this never end? I'm going insane! "GOING INSANE???" Eleven letters!!

Nooooooooooo!!!!!! I guess I'll die alone, even though "I'LL DIE ALONE" has 11 letters.....

Oh my God, I just realized that America is doomed! Our Independence Day is July 4th ... 7/4 ... 7+4=11!

PS. "IT'S BULL****" has 11 letters also.

On top of being retarded, this is effing old. I received this in an e-mail just after 9/11 actually happened.

One of my friend's birthday is on 9/11. I'm guessing it kind of sucks for her now.

The logical conclusion is to live in fear of the number eleven.

Wait a minute, what about the number 13? Foolish 11-ists, 13's here to stay!

A long time ago, either Curt or that "Jay the FF" guy, wherever he went off to, posted about 15 steps ranging from mathemacial equations to changing the letter to turn "Xbox" into something Satan related and said that was proof Xbox was evil. I never actually tried it, though. Wasn't bored enough.

"BUNNY RABBIT" has 11 characters. So don't let your kids watch Bugs Bunny! He's a terrorist and is sending telepathic messages to children encouraging acts against America!

Shane could delete this topic now, but "Delete Topic" has eleven letters. So... why not move this topic? MOVE THIS TOPIC has THIRTEEN letters, making it even more unlucky.

My attempt to make a bad pun has failed, because "MAKE A BAD PUN" has eleven letters in it. But I can't shut up right, because to shut myself up right I'd be shut up right, which would be eleven numbers.

Okay, I'll make sense now. Oh, wait, I can't. Make sense now is eleven letters! Ahhhhhhhhhh!

I can't scream either. It has eleven letters.

*is shot a lot*

Metal_Man88 has eleven total symbols in it! RUN!!!!

The answer to the universe isn't 42.

It's 11. [img]tongue.gif[/img]
