It would appear that rumors of rituals at the great pyramids have caused it to be closed. Probably so the REAL powers that be can hold theirs undisturbed. :tinfoilhat:
Here's a few mainstream versions of the story.

This crap is just getting ridiculous.
Especially since the egyptians wh built the pyramids didnt use a roman based calendar from 3000 years into the future.
Also people are stupid. Its nigel tufnel day because everythings turned up to eleven. Any sensible person would know that.
Right! It's like our arbitrary dating system is somehow supposed to have real numerological significance. :weary:
:? who's nigel tufnel?
Ok. Get off pd right now and watch this is spinal tap.
There is no excuse for not knowing this.

Thanks for reminding me, I still needed to watch that. I know the "turn it up to 11" scene, but I never got to watch the movie yet.
So many classics ... But every time I'm reminded of one I'll make a point to view it.
BTW check its IMDB rating: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0088258/

I've never gotten into spinal tap, but I'll make a point of it very soon.
If by soon you mean toning at eleven minutes past eleven tonight then yes youd better. Times running out.
And if by toning my phone .means tonight. Stupid phone.

On the contrary.
HAS
real numerological significance.
LACKS
real
numerological significance. Or at least, objective significance. 11/11/11 was a pretty damn cool date.
The number for my birthday works out to the key number 33. So did yesterday. I felt no transcendence happen, but I'm Watching This Is Spinal Tap now and it's pretty good. Gonna post a thread for fun quotes as I hear them in Appletalk.
