Pics of my car and mini-me

I found a 1/24 scale model of my car on ebay and couldn't pass it up. I'm almost done assembling it, just a few more touch ups and its done.

What do you think? looks pretty close?

Yep monogram. My car has respeed coilovers waiting for it in the garage, so the stance should look more like the model after I install them.

Nice to know I'm not the only one with a Mini-She on the shelf:



(I painted it with Duplicolor K8 touchup paint, too, heh)

Yah, the gas pump came as part of the case kit (Model Maker brand). It lights up, too, as do the keylights.

The yellow-on-blue CA plate matches the car, too - - I made it on the PC, & printed it on the color laser at work.

My lil Mazda shrine. Heh.

& Jeezus, re my postcount; I've only had since June. Give me time.

Think he was talking about something along these lines.

Much has been written on this subject and we will not endeavor to review any here. Trust that readers are acquainted with some of these many presentations.

The mystery 666 certainly has to do with the Prophecies regarding the End Time, when, under the events of the Seventh and Final Trumpet as proclaimed in the Book of Revelation, the Kingdom of the world becomes the Kingdom of the Messiah, Who will thereafter reign for ever and ever (Rev. 11:14-19).

Rev. 13:16-18 associates this sign with a satanic force which blasphemes God, has power over all humanity and who "makes war against the saints of God" (Rev. 13:5-8). It would be worshipped by all humanity - specifically, those who have chosen against God and His Truth (Read Rev. chapters 12 - 14 in context).

This sign has to do with the name of this evil but popular world power (Rev. 13:16-18) and it will serve as a 'mark branded on his followers', without which no one will be able to buy or sell anything. This is a remarkable prophecy for the Bible to refer to, 2000 years in advance of our time, in which trade boycotts have become the order of the day whereby to manipulate or punish 'rebel' nations!

While many theories avail about what the true meaning and implication of this 'mark of the beast' is, which will earn the subsequent wrath of God, most commentators and searchers after Truth seem to overlook the solution offered in the very next Scripture in the Bible: Rev. 14:1 "Next in my vision I saw Mount Zion and standing on it a Lamb Who had with Him 144 000 people, all with His Name and His Father's Name written on their foreheads." These have been redeemed, to be the 'first fruits' unto God (verse 4). What then does it benefit us to search for the meaning of 666, referring to the name of the satanic beast? Why not rather ensure to find the Name of God and have that sealed upon oneself? For details about the Scriptural teaching on how to receive this Sacred Name, be sure to read: http://www.revelations.org.za/Bap.htm

Careful consideration of this mysterious mark reveals that this matter concerns the Name of God versus the Name of the Beast - Eternal Life versus eternal damnation.

The following details are provided merely as a suggestion of what the 666 may well refer to: The Greek alphabet have numerical values. The 3 Greek letters used in Rev. 13:18 in referring to this 'mark', were:
X (=Chi) 600
Xi (shaped like a curled capital E) 60
s (Sigma) 6
Thus XES (approx.)


OHH SNAP I GOT BIBLICAL ON SOMEONES *** LOL. But it s a nice little shrine there. But what would the significance of your post be since it was your 666th post creepy. Your car is a demon.
