Helen of Annoy Posted February 12, 2013 #627 Share Posted February 12, 2013 In 627 AD Byzantine emperor Heraclius sent missionaries to Croats who practiced Slavic paganism. (To no avail. It will take a lot more missionaries, this time from Rome, and few more decades for Croats to accept Christianity. And few more centuries to start using Latin instead of folk language in Masses.) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Helen of Annoy Posted February 13, 2013 #637 Share Posted February 13, 2013 637 means “always and forever”, because there’re 6 letters in “always”, 3 in “and” and 7 in “forever”. The Internet told me so, but it didn’t tell me why something has to be always and forever, like you can do something forever but not always? I mean, it’s possible, you have to use bathroom for as long as you live, which is the same as forever if we are mortal beings, but not always... hopefully. Anyway... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ealdwita Posted February 14, 2013 #644 Share Posted February 14, 2013 (edited) A.D. 644. This year died at Rochester, on the tenth of October, Paulinus, who was first Archbishop at York, and afterwards atRochester. He was bishop nineteen winters, two months, and one and twenty days. This year the son of Oswy's uncle (Oswin), the son of Osric, assumed the government of Deira, and reigned seven winters. Poor old Paulinus!
