My unillustrated "I LOVE The History Channel" post
Wish I could provide a picture for you. You'll have to settle for my description.
So, at lunchtime, a few minutes before noon, we turn on the TV and surf around till we stumble on The History Channel.
HC's morning program was almost over, so we watched its last few minutes. According to HC's online schedule, the show was "Countdown to Armageddon," about the end of the world, including the Book of Revelation and all the weird symbolism in it. As most of these channels do, History Channel ran promos at the screen bottom for other shows.
One interviewee -- we tuned in too late to catch his name -- described the Antichrist and the infamous "666" mark: "He will require that everyone have The Mark of The Beast on either his right hand or his forehead. Without this mark, no one will be able to buy or sell."
As he spoke, a promo for "Pawn Stars Marathon" appeared at screen bottom.
I just love The History Channel.
