                     What's up with the number 12 ? 
                -Chess Champ's 'Reality Check' Observations:

        Six represents man (imperfection). 12 is a multiple of 6. It may 
represent God's efforts to redeem this miserable world, which does not deserve 
to be redeemed. ( 12 tribes of Israel, 12 sons of Jacob, 12 of etc, etc... )

God is trinity. There is God the Father, God the Son, God the Holy Spirit.
Hence, if something is said or done three times in ancient Hebrew culture it 
was seen as being established. Number seven represents perfection and
completeness which means it also represents God. 6 then is one less than 
complete, which is part of where the evil meaning plays in. Also 666 would
be three times, which would be an attempt to establish man over God. 
(self salvation, New Age non-sense)

A very interesting fact I observed when I was thinking about how many games 
there  should be in a chess match... I came to conclusion 14 is enough but 
11 must be played anyways... + 4 of Chess Champ's lottery...
If after 14 games (in chess), if it's 7-7 tie we play 1 more game of champ's 
style, then the champ retains the title. But that one game of free style
would be a little faster... Therefore in case of 7-7 tie, the champ retains 
his title. But what I came to conclusions... 
is that I am now sick of #12. Because it has been overused 
for no apparent reason. Or I am sure there is a reason...
Think... For example... 12 baskets of food picked up
after 5000+ men ate after listening to Jesus,
12 tribes of Israel (original tribe was from Judah, thus the name 'jews'),
from Noah to Abraham, From Abe to Moses,
From Moses to Dave, from Dave to Jesus, the carpenter, there were 12 generations
for each (actually he was also a constructor, contractor, mason...check out 
the muscles on the arms) Then we have Mary, Mother of God, 
she is crowned with 12 stars around her head, then we have 12 Apostles...
(Actually there were 14, They picked another one after the drawing of the lots,
(Matias) then came Paul, he was apostle to the gentiles and Judas, 
was the traitor, who thought Jesus will come to save the jews 
from the romans... he got the message wrong). 
Jews, like Judas should not expect any other Messiah to come, 
because he already came to them and to the world.
Same thing goes for pontius Pilate, he did not crucify him, 
it was demanded to him by the people of the land... 
And yes, he is also responsible in some way for crucifixion. Now, more:
We have 12 months, 24 hours with 12 hours on the clock, 12 being the noon, 
12 jurors (waste of time and tax payer's money, should be 10.
I think they should have 11 justices in the supreme court, 
they are time wasters anyways...) Then we have dozen of eggs, 
or beers or donuts (cops, your favorite, I see you around donut stores all 
the time, dont deny it), 12 rounds in boxing, 8 + 4 years of school K-12, etc...
What's up with that, is that some kind of a number disease: 
pathetic psychological obsessive disorder or something ? 
I am glad at least our Solar system (part of the huge Milky Way) is not 12... 
Well, may be there is, there are 9 planets, sun is a star, 
that's 10, then we have some other star close to Pluto, wow, I am glad, 
that's 11, I can rest now... lol. Or can I ? In 2004 they discovered
some other star in the solar system which evolves around the sun 
in 11 000 years ( O good, number 11 ). 
        Now, here's a thought for the day:
Baker's dozen is 13, well then, that's not a dozen or is it ?
I still prefer Baker's dozen over a mere dozen.
        I am glad, however, in basketball they have 10 players total and in 
soccer each team has 10 players + one goalman ( O good, number 11).
        In conclusion, I say... 10 is a full number and 11 is an addition
to it, those numbers make much more sense than 12. After all human beings
(even if they are animals) have 10 fingers, unlike mammals and animals who
have only eight, 12 is more than 11, but then again if I want more of something 
then I have 13, 14... And more is better, right ?

I CAME UP WITH A NEW NAME FOR THE PERFECT NUMBER OF ELEVEN: 
'ELZEN' FROM DO_ZEN AND EL_EVEN, ALSO KNOWN AS CC DOZEN, CHAMP'S DOZEN,
I DONT MEAN CUBIC CENTIMETERS DOZEN.
