The Number "11"

If you read the email going around about the number "11" for the 
past few weeks, you will love David's response to it. We don't know 
who David is, but his response is hilarious! Make sure you read 
beyond the Original Letter!

Original Letter:

The date of the attack: 9/11 - 9 + 1 + 1 = 11
September 11th is the 254th day of the year: 2 + 5 + 4 = 11
After September 11th there are 111 days left to the end of the year.
119 is the area code to Iraq/Iran. 1 + 1 + 9 = 11
Twin Towers - standing side by side, looks like the number 11
The first plane to hit the towers was Flight 11
State of New York - The 11th State added to the Union
New York City - 11 Letters
Afghanistan - 11 Letters
The Pentagon - 11 Letters
Ramzi Yousef - 11 Letters (convicted or orchestrating the attack at 
the WTC in 1993)
Flight 11 - 92 on board - 9 + 2 = 11
Flight 77 - 65 on board - 6 + 5 = 11

Dave's response:

Oh my God! How worried should I be? There are 11 letters in the name

"David Pawson!" I'm going into hiding NOW. See you in a few weeks.

Wait a sec ... just realized "YOU CAN'T HIDE" also has 11 letters! 
What am I gonna do? Help me!!! The terrorists are after me! ME! I 
can't believe it!

Oh crap, there must be someplace on the planet Earth I could hide! 
But no ..."PLANET EARTH" has 11 letters, too!

Maybe Nostradamus can help me. But dare I trust him? There are 11 
letters in "NOSTRADAMUS."

I know, the Red Cross can help. No they can't... 11 letters in "THE 
RED CROSS," can't trust them.

I would rely on self defense, but "SELF DEFENSE" has 11 letters in 
it, too! Can someone help?

Anyone? If so, send me email. No, don't... "SEND ME EMAIL" has 11
letters....

Will this never end? I'm going insane! "GOING INSANE???" Eleven
letters!!

Nooooooooooo!!!!!! I guess I'll die alone, even though "I'LL DIE 
ALONE" has 11 letters.....

Oh my God, I just realized that America is doomed! Our Independence 
Day is July 4th ... 7/4 ... 7+4=11!

~ Dave

PS. "IT'S BULLSHIT" has 11 letters also.
