I Just Found It Interesting

[Guest funkyfool416]

1) New York City has 11 letters

2) Afghanistan has 11 letters.

3) Ramsin Yuseb (The terrorist who threatened to destroy the Twin

Towers in 1993) has 11 letters.

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.

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 Koran, 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 Koran.

Still uncovinced about all of this..?! Try this and see how you feel

afterwards, it made my hair stand on end:

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?!!

Well, the number 11 could be coincidence. If not, I am not sure what the implications are.

But the Wingdings thing is legitimate, and spooky.

What is a Wingding exactly? Is there a standardized Wingding alphabet? I never really knew much about it...

And are those the true Windding characters that correspond to those letters, or is it a practical joke by a guy at Microsoft?

[Guest Taoist_Saint]

Nevermind...Snopes answered the question...

http://www.snopes.com/rumors/wingdings.asp

The last coincidence mentioned in the example quoted at the head of this page — that the arrangements of symbols corresponding to the string "Q33NY" in the Wingdongs font is a "sign that Microsoft were involved in the terrorist attack" — is purely a contrived one. Although typing the characters Q-3-3-N-Y in the Wingdings font does produce the string of images shown below (an airplane, two vertical rectangular shapes, a skull and crossbones, and a Star of David), none of this has any real relevance to the 9/11 attacks: Q33NY was not the flight or tail number of either of the planes that were crashed into the World Trade Center that day, the rectangular shapes represent pieces of paper with writing on them, not buildings, and the terrorist attacks were neither perpetrated by nor targeted against Jews.

I admit that the Wingding thing freaked me out for a minute until I found out that the numbers I typed in were not an actual flight number.

So I was amazed for a few minutes

Well, funkyfool416 should not be burnt at the stake. She's more than welcome to post here and all. I've seen some dumb comments here and some brilliant comments here on this forum. Everyone should be welcome.

[shanstress70]

Welcome Funky,

I thought the other stuff was a bit freaky - how the numbers add up and all. But I feel that it's just a coincidence. It is all very interesting.

No one was burning her to a steak! She's a big girl and i'm sure she knows everyone has their own opinions

Tao Saint asks: And are those the true Windding characters that correspond to those letters, or is it a practical joke by a guy at Microsoft?

So all those beautiful random coincidences go up in vapors. Except...except, they probably do prove that the AntiChrist will probably be either a computer geek, or a new computer system.

For another example of how these sneaky people work, try the following:

1. Go to http://www.google.com

2. Type in the word: FAILURE

3. Click "I'm feeling lucky."

[pushka]

Hmmm..I didn't find 'I'm feeling lucky' when I googled FAILURE on the link you provided...

Try again. I just clicked the link from your post, and it worked. There are two tabs. One says: GOOGLE SEARCH. The other says I'M FEELING LUCKY.

If you type the word Failure in the search engine, and click the second tab (I'm feeling lucky) you will be brought to a certain webpage...one that may or may not leave you "feeling lucky."

[pushka]

Ahh! I get you now, PC...yeah, I got the biog. of Pres. Bush!!! LOL

[Justlooking]

In Hebrew letters and numbers are interchanged and also have meanings. The number 11 means "chaos".

Without reading the whole post or the rest of the thread, I'd be willing to bet that more than half of it is false.
