The Daily Mail and the ‘antichrist’ car
This week the Daily Mail’s “Foreign Service” breathlessly reported that a car with the number-plate 666 went up in flames – perhaps because it carried “the number that identifies the Antichrist”. Perhaps it was a slow news day – the newspaper caught up with the story two years after it actually happened. Who says journalism is dying?

Morons….
Especially as the number is actually 616. But I guess google is too complicated for top-rank journalists such as the Fail.
(666 may have been referring to the Emperor Nero. Or not.)
Cite your sources! You can’t just pretend that Stephen Fry didn’t tell you that… hahaha
It wasn’t Fry, actually! I hang around with too many Qabalah geeks. (Although as we know, thou shalt not question Stephen Fry.)
