The Saga of "54" and the Truth - Post #120

[Texxxx]

I will throw a simple guess out there. Leons age when it started.
If that doesn't work then I will say the number of Depends that Frank goes through in a week.

Please see post #65 for the answer.

Post #65 says I know the answer.Is that the answer?

It's so much fun seeing everyone jumping for the carrot. I feel like the rabbit at the greyhound track. Eric, I thought your post was autobiographical until the death scene. Please assure us that you are still alive. As for Texxxx, I guess it depends on which week you are talking about. When I'm dealing with you, the stack seems to get a little higher. To the best of my knowledge Leon is not yet 54, so that theory would hinge on whether he has found the Fountain of Youth and is headed backwards.

Sam Majors may be clairvoyant or he may be a principle somehow involved an undercover plot or he may just be your average Joe man in the street type guy waiting to be discovered by Jay Leno. All I know is that he is not an agent of mine and is in no way connected financially or psychologically with this thread.

I'm considering half time at the Super Bowl for the reveal, and no I will not be there for a live presentation. The name of the thread may change at that time, but the change will be appropriate and shouldn't fool more than 10% of the members.

A few more theories before Sunday would be nice. I may even wrap up my serialized version before then.

It's Chuck Norris's favorite number.

Very simply, 3 was subtracted, the "." dropped, and "54" remained

Intellectually appealing, but flawed in the sixth line of the formula, which belies the result obtained.

The Curse of 1940, also called Dutton's Curse, was a superstitious explanation for why the New York Rangers of the National Hockey League did not win the league's championship trophy, the Stanley Cup, from 1940–94.

Net = Hockey 54 Years = Duration of the Curse

1940 was also Pre WWII (for the US)

Was anyone involved in the naming a Hockey or Rangers Fan?

Thanks for your concern

Best Regards,

I'm a frequent thread reader (lurker) waiting for an answer to this one.....

This is my first post here, and I'm waiting an answer to this!

Why five four?!?!?!?!?

[EvilKing00]

Frank posted the answer a few posts back - it was due to the creator being a 1954 Brooklyn fan - not the climatic ending i was hoping for lol
