HELL, Mich. -- This Tuesday, it'll be a hot time in Hell.
"Tuesday marks the once-in-a-millennium date of 6-6-06.
It's a spot on the calendar watched carefully in the small Michigan town named Hell, about 60 miles west of Detroit.
The date comes close to the number 666, which signifies the devil in the Bible's Book of Revelation. In anticipation, radio stations as far away as San Diego and Seattle have been raffling off trips to Hell. Live entertainment and a costume contest are also planned.
One local businessman is especially fired up. He's selling souvenir mugs and T-shirts marked "666," which also come with a letter stating the owner spent June 6, 2006, in Hell.
Though the exact reasons are in dispute, the Michigan hamlet has been officially known as Hell since 1841."
Now Ralphie whines not to blame him, as..."The DEVIL made me do it!"
