    This is my 666 post, so felt like sharing some interesting facts about this interesting number 666.

    1) It is also equal to the sum of its digits plus the cubes of its digits:

    There are only five other positive integers with this property.

    2) The sum of the squares of the first 7 primes is 666:

    666 = 2² + 3² + 5² + 7² + 11² + 13² + 17²

    3) The 2006 remake of the 1976 horror film The Omen – is released on 06.06.06 worldwide.

    4) 666 is the sum of all 36 numbers on a roulette wheel.
