Editorial Number Nine: The Illuminating 23 Skidoo

I am now hip to the synchronicity of the number twenty-three (with the application of the Law of Fives: 2+3=5) and the mighty impact it has on my own obviously predestined life.

Just a Few of the Scary Facts:

W is the 23 letter of our alphabet (23 Letters in the Latin alphabet). The symbol for that letter is two points down and three points up. URLs contain 2 "/"s and 3 W's...

Han parks the Falcon in docking bay 94 (9/3=3 and 4/2=2 reverse it and get 23).

The first two moon landings were by Apollo 11 (which touched down in the Sea of Tranquility, 23.63? East) and Apollo 12 (touched down in the Ocean of Storms, 23.42? West). Apollo 11 + 12 = 23

Area 51:  23+23+(2+3) = 51 Coincidence? Think again, chum...

Keith Moon was born on August 23rd

How many Annunaki originally journeyed from the last planet in our solar system (Planet X) to Earth to create humans, give us civilization, genetically engineer us as slave-animals by splicing their genes with Homo Erectus genes and, over time, accept us in a limited partnership we have long ago forgotten? 23 my friends - just ask the Sumerians!

R2-D2 and C-3PO: R2+C3 = RC and 23

U is the 21st letter in the alphabet added to the number 2 equal 23. Bono and The Edge know what's up...

I myself was once 23 years old!

The human body has 46 chromosomes (23 from each parent - yes, your Mom and Dad are in on it too!)

Chris "The X-Files" Carter's production company? Ten-Thirteen (10+13=23).

The axis of our fair planet Earth is 2.3 degrees

And where was Leia incarcerated? "We have a disturbance in detention block AA 23!" (Rohan knows...)

Kurt Cobain: born 1967: 1+9+6+7 = 23, murdered 1994: 1+9+9+4 = 23

Typical Lunar Cycle? 28 (23+5) days.

As the 4th moon of Yavin comes into view on the Death Star's targeting screen, a countdown to when the hidden base will be in range begins with 32 minutes.

"RED LEADER'S VOICE: (over headset) Copy, Base One. Luke, take Red Two and Three. Hold up here and wait for my signal...to start your run." Luke is, as you know, Red 5 (Law of Fives! Law of Fives!) and takes Red 2 and Red 3 to start his bombing run...

Tip of the iceberg there -- the list could go on forever. Now that you are in tune with this numerical conspiracy/cosmic enigma you will begin to take note of its effect on your own life. What does it all mean, you ask? What are the ramifications of this frustrating knowledge you have imparted upon us, Chris? I suspect the answer is simply too big for mere genetically unenlightened, synthesized mortals like ourselves to grasp. I will tell you this: when the Annunaki make their triumphant return, the meaning of 23 will be Question One on my lips.
