23 enigma

The "23 Enigma" refers to the belief that all incidents and events are directly connected to the number 23. some examples-

2/3= .666 the number of the devil
The New York Yankees won the World Series 23 times
AOL chat rooms only allow 23 people at a time
In the film Airport, the mad bomber has seat 23
there are exactly 23 characters, numbers and letters, on the face of all U.S. coins
23rd wave crashing on a beach averages twice the size as normal
W is the 23rd in the alphabet and has 2 points down and 3 points up
In Star Wars Princess Lea was held in cell AA-23
Shakespeare was born on April 23,1556 and died on April 23, 1616.
takes 23 seconds for blood to circulate through the human body
Ceasar was stabbed 23 times by the assasans.
Hitler joined a secret society in 1923.
Dog Days of Summer begin on July 23 when Sirius the Dogstar rises from behind the sun.
The average smoker inhales 23 ciggarettes a day
It is believed that Adam and Eve had 23 daughters.

and thats just a few examples. there are tons more!

but really, sufficient twisting , its possible to create an enigma for any number from 00 to 99. so the 23 enigma is nothing particularly special. there are also alot of mistakes in that list. i copied it off of a website cause i found it interesting but couldn't be bothered to write my own list :P and i suppose it isn't really the 23 enigma thats interesting so much a mankinds ability to see patterns where none exist....
