You’re wrong. The final Qoph is transliterated according to OHED (Oxford Hebrew English Dictionary) as cK, so BRQ is Barack in English, and BRK is Barak. You’ve been deceived by Satan. See http://www.Satanisbarack.com

I have a friend whose very old pickup truck has 666 as part of its randomly-assigned license plate number. And, it's always in the garage, with something else broken. So I think that proves everything (which any of us suspect about . . . well, anything)!

Ok, that’s what I thought, but I couldn’t tell. Ha. I admire Daniel’s sense of humor in a scholarly realm, it’s refreshing.

I just opened my Newsweek, and there was an article there about the 666 thing and Obama as the Anti-Christ, too.

On the train coming home I was reading the Chicago Tribune, and on p. 3 there was an article on people claiming Obama is the Anti-Christ. This article didn’t mention the name thing, but cited two evidences people have pointed to:

1. The day after the election, the Illinois Lottery’s winning pick three numbers were 666. Someone who doesn’t know math or statistics wrongly calculated that the odds against that were like billions to one. But in fact that combination has occurred four times so far this year alone.

2. Obama is from Chicago, and Chicago includes the zip code 60606 (along with a lot of other ones). Take out the zeroes, and you’ve got 666.

I take this last one personally, because my office in Chicago is in the 60606 zip code!

I’m with Nora. Nuthin’ better than to kick back on a Saturday night with a frosty baurak ale and watch some football.

Dan is a friend of mine. I’m mocking an anti-Mormon’s attempt to define Baurak Ale, which Dan describes in his article. It is genuinely funny stuff.

I’m confused Kevin, are you mocking Daniel Peterson or propping up his article?
