But I thought I would make a stand alone post for this bizarre numerical coincidence of Burtpassingaway on 6/9(or 9/6 if you are an American) some 16+ years after that TV episode of 'The X-Files' aired, without my own personal coincidences I found after watching that episode last year.
This was my favourite episode after sitting through 217episodes of quite frankly, in my opinion, a pretty ordinary TV series that I'm not a fan of.
If it wasn't for my buying and reading of Christopher Knowles2008 co-authored book about the first 9 seasons and the 2 movies, I wouldn't have been bothered slogging my way through watching the TV episodes on Amazon Prime.
But I'm glad that I did, as there were a few nuggets among all of those rocks and stones.
It's ironic that in my favourite X-Files episode Agent Scully had to use a magnifying glass, as while I don't normally have to wear reading glasses to read books, the print in this book is so small that I needed my magnifying glass nearby at all times when reading this book.
Ironically that episode was all about numerology and focused on the numbers 3, 6 and 9. And Burtpassed away inreal life on the6th of September, 2018.
Burt was born on the 11th of February which on non-leap years is the 42nd day of the year, not that that means anything, right?-)
While I never crossed paths with Burt Reynolds in this lifetime, I did cross paths with Bill Bennett, who wrote and directed the movie 'Tempted' starring Burt, and this was the movie Bill was working on when he claims an inner voice stopped him from going through an intersection where a truck ended up running a red light -
I had not heard of the tune/song Poinciana until I was watching Burt Reynolds miming the words to the song in 'The X-Files' episode 13 from season 9, 'Improbable' which I watched for the first time a few weeks back when I spent a month or two working my way through 217episodes of that crap TV show, because of a Christopher Knowles co-written book about 'The X-Files'I pulled off my bookshelf and read last year -
Lyrics for the song were completed in about thirty minutes by Buddy Bernier, who cited as his inspiration a postcard of a royal poinciana tree he'd recently received from Florida.
Burtpassed away inFlorida by the way;-)
My father passed away on13/9in2016 and my mother scattered his ashes under the poincianatree in their backyard, which he grew from a seed.
Oddly enough, 'Improbable' is episode13in season 9, and I notice that episode aired the night before my father's birthday of April 8th, back in 2002;-)
Mum didn't think that one through though about dad's ashes, as she ended up selling the house and dividing the money up to give to us kids before she died from the cancer that was killing her (she is still alive by the way).
Ironically that episode was all about numerology and focused on the numbers 3, 6 and 9.
And Burt passed away in real life on the 6thof September, 2018.
That's 6/9 or 9/6, depending what part of the world you happen to live in.
In this X-Files episode Burt Reynolds character plays "Mr. Burt" and it is rather ambiguous whether he is meant to be the devil, a trickster, God ... or all three.
My take is that the Asian woman who deals Wayneo the cards at the beginning of the show is meant to be "God" and Burt plays a tricksterish offsider to God to try and steer Wayneo away from his selfish loser egotistical self.
The fact that "Mr. Burt" asks for a packet of Morleys(cigarettes) before Wayneo sits down next to him at the bar would seem to identify "Mr. Burt" with the Smoking Man in the TV series of 'The X-Files', so I guess "Mr. Burt" ain't meant to be "God" in this episode, especially when the final scenes take place in Wayneo's basement:-)
On a personal note, my older brother who passed away last year was named Wayne.
While I never crossed paths with Burt Renyolds in this lifetime, I did cross paths with Bill Bennett, who wrote and directed the movie 'Tempted'starring Burt, and this was the movie Bill was working on when he claims an inner voice stopped him from going through an intersection where a vehicle ended up running a red light -
There's probably a personal message in this post for me, but the only poinciana tree I have access to at the moment is the one in my sister's backyard, so if an owl shows up in it while I'm there then that might be a different message for me altogether, right Mike?-)
