We made it through June 6, 1006 and June 6, 6AD. We'll make it through tomorrow. But, just in case, I'm not doing dishes tonight...I'm just going to take it easy and reflect. LOL.
We had a customer who would look at each bill we gave her and isist on exchanging any of them which included a "6" in the serial number.
It's just a number.
or 1106, 1206, etc
not to mention june 6 of the year 666 AD

i personally though it would be anticlimactic but even the hallowed Office Space references the one guy's job as making software Y2K compliant.

Well, I did say that Ann Coulter was releasing a book that day. I think that could qualify. 
Plus, there seems to be an agreement amoung posters that some socks will go missing. Where will the madness end?!

"And he causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads: And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name. Here is wisdom. Let him that hath understanding count the number of the beast: for it is the number of a man; and his number is Six hundred threescore and six."
Revelation 13:16-18
It's simple to be saved.
Just pray this simple prayer, and mean it with all your heart. Lord Jesus, I know that I am a sinner, and unless you save me I am lost forever. I thank you for dying for me at Calvary. I come to you now, the best way I know how, and ask you to save me. I now receive you as my Savior. In Jesus Christ name, Amen.

Don't contradict the great and powerful (and awesome typer) anon or you will go on his/her mighty insult list, too.  I don't want you to know the pain of those clever barbs.
Well, I'm 6' tall in heels,
I wear size 6 clothing,
And I have a 6th sense...
Which helps me find the missing socks!!!

Hel_l, Mich., Heats Up for 6-6-6 Party
HEL_L, Mich. (AP) - They're planning a hot time in Hel_l on Tuesday. The day bears the date of 6-6-06, or abbreviated as 666 - a number that carries hellish significance. And there's not a snowball's chance in Hel_l that the day will go unnoticed in the unincorporated hamlet 60 miles west of Detroit.
Nobody is more fired up than John Colone, the town's self-styled mayor and owner of a souvenir shop.
"I've got '666' T-shirts and mugs. I'm only ordering 666 (of the items) so once they're gone, that's it," said Colone, also known as Odum Plenty. "Everyone who comes will get a letter of authenticity saying you've celebrated June 6, 2006, in Hel_l."
Most of Colone's wares will sell for $6.66, including deeds to one square inch of Hel_l.
Live entertainment and a costume contest are planned. The Gates of Hel_l should be installed at a children's play area in time for the festivities.
"They're 8 feet tall and 5 foot wide and each gate looks like flames, and when they're closed, it's a devil's head," Colone told The Detroit News for a Saturday story.
Mike "Smitty" Hickey, owner of the Dam Site Inn, wasn't sure what kind of clientele would show up Tuesday.
"We're all about having fun here. I don't think we're going to get the cult crowd, the devil worshippers or anything like that," said Hickey, whose bar's signature concoction is the Bloody Devil, a variant of the Bloody Mary.
Colone, meanwhile, has been in touch with radio stations as far away as San Diego and Seattle that are raffling off trips to Hel_l in honor of 6-6-6.
The 666 revelry is just the latest chapter in the town's storied history of publicity stunts, said Jason LeTeff, one of its 72 year-round residents - or, as the mayor calls them, Hellions or Hel_l-billies. But LeTeff wasn't particularly enthused.
"Now, here I am living in Hel_l, taking my kids to church and trying to teach them the right things and the town where we live is having a 6-6-6 party," he said.
According to the town's semiofficial Web site, there are two leading theories about how Hel_l got its name.
The first holds that a pair of German travelers stepped out of a stagecoach one sunny afternoon in the 1830s, and one said to the other, "So schoene hel_l" - roughly translated as, "So bright and beautiful." Their comments were overheard by some locals and the name stuck.
The second holds that George Reeves was asked after Michigan gained statehood what he thought the town he helped settle should be called, and reportedly replied, "I don't care, you can name it Hel_l if you want to." The name became official on Oct. 13, 1841.
