Stephen King's Route 66

A friend  is cat/house sitting for our neighbour, so she invited us over for a visit and to introduce us to her friends John and Lee: a gay couple.  Later that evening as John and Lee were getting ready to leave, they put out an invitation for Cath and I to visit whenever we're in their neighbourhood, and because we're familiar with the area they gave us their house number, with Lee adding "... all you have to remember is our house number , which is easy-- 66.

This morning as I picked up Stephen King's novel 11/22/63 and I came to page 827 where it reads:
We watched Rawhide, Ben Casey and Route 66.  
So a "66" Pattern-Cluster in the works... and a heads up.  I googled Route 66 and as I peruse the page brought up, I noticed the following:

         I'm Here to Kill a King (Route 66 Part 3) As a followup to my previous ...

     Mar 22, 2015 - As a followup to my previous post I decided to investigate theRoute 66 episode, "I'm Here to Kill a King" . Note this excerpt from the episodes IMDb info page: Tod ...

Now that's just spooky!!  So I'm investigating a section of Stephen King's novel that mentions Route 66 and  when I Google Route 66, a post I wrote about over a year ago with "King" and Route 66 in the title crops up.  So venturing to the post, note the following:
  • Ramón del Fierro Magsaysay (August 31, 1907 – March 17, 1957) 
Magsaysay's date of birth stands out-- the birthday of Megan MacGregor, another key player in the inner twin worlds "Starr Family Production".  So then I went back to the top of the Google page and to, U.S. Route 66, clicking on the link, I came to a man whose known as the "Father of Route 66", note from his wiki page:
Note this next excerpt from the Route 66 wiki page:
US 66 was established on November 11, 1926
US 66 was unofficially named "The Will Rogers Highway" by the U.S. Highway 66 Association in 1952, although a sign along the road with that name appeared in the John Ford film, The Grapes of Wrath, which was released in 1940, twelve years before the association gave the road that name 
So note from John Ford's wiki page:
  •  John Ford (February 1, 1894 – August 31, 1973) 
"Grapes of Wrath" cropping up is 'timely' given that Stephen Kings novel, 11/22/63, has the protagonist, George (aka "Jake") helping his students put on a play based on the film/novel.  I should also mention at this time that one of my posts made yesterday, Stephen King's Dick Tiger & the Future, references another section of King's novel.   Note this excerpt from 11/22/63:
Now, watching him push an old felt hat from props back on his head, I thought that Vince looked like Henry Fonda in The Grapes of Wrath.  
Note from Henry Fonda's wiki page:
  • Henry Jaynes Fonda (May 16, 1905 – August 12, 1982)
Fonda's birthday, May 16, is the same as Rob MacGregor, Megan's father, and another key player in the inner twin world's Starr Family Production.  I then investigated the birth/death information of the other cast and crew and found a number of pattern-clusters:
Note the following info on films cast/crew:
  • John Arledge (March 12, 1906 – May 15, 1947) 
  • Joe Sawyer(August 29, 1906 – April 21, 1982) 
  • Charles Ellsworth "Charley" Grapewin (December 20, 1869 – February 2, 1956)  
  • Frank Sully (June 17, 1908 – December 17, 1975)
  • Grant Mitchell(June 17, 1874 – May 1, 1957)
  • Russell McCaskill Simpson (June 17, 1880 – December 12, 1959)
  • Alfred Newman(March 17, 1900 – February 17, 1970 )composer 
  • Shirley Olivia Mills(April 8, 1926 – March 31, 2010) 
  • Edward "Eddie" Quillan (March 31, 1907 – July 19, 1990) 
  • Selmer Jackson(May 7, 1888 – March 30, 1971) 
  • Frank Faylen (December 8, 1905 – August 2, 1985) 
  • John Qualen (December 8, 1899 – September 12, 1987)
Those are the main ones and there is more if you care to investigate further.  Not to mention the cryptic communication that needs to be sorted out.  Like "Grapewin's" surname (jiving with "Grapes of Wrath), and his date of death falling on the 33rd day with 333 days remaining!!
 Info regarding the novel:

  • Berta Hoerner Hader (August 1, 1890 – February 6, 1976) 
  • Elmer Stanley Hader (September 7, 1889 - September 7, 1973) 
Since King's novel 11/22/63 mentions two other tv shows in the above excerpt I ventured to each, choosing two names from each that stands out.  From Rawhide (TV series), I chose:
The names "jive": Washington jives with the recent "US Presidents" pattern-cluster and don't forget, King's novel is about the assassination of President John F. Kennedy and time traveller Jake who intends to stop it.  The name Frankie is an addition to the "Frank/Truth Theme" pattern-cluster... and do note the two "Frank's" highlighted in Rose re the Route 66 cast, and then there's his surname Laine (aka lane) that jives with "route".  Note from their wiki pages:
  •  Ned Washington(August 15, 1901 – December 20, 1976)
  • Frankie Laine(March 30, 1913[1]– February 6, 2007) 
The dates March 30th and December 20th crop up in regards to Route 66.  I did check out the other cast members, note the following info on one: 
  • Eric Fleming (bornEdward Heddy, Jr.; July 4, 1925 – September 28, 1966)
His birthday jives...considering that 3 of the first 5 US Presidents died on July 4th!!

Now from the other tv show mentioned, Ben Casey, note this excerpt:
In 1962 the series inspired a semi-comic rock song, "Callin' Dr. Casey," written and performed by songwriter John D. Loudermilk
It's such a strange name ... smacking of inner twin infiltration.  Note from his wiki page:

John D. Loudermilk (born March 31, 1934)
WOW!!  An addition to the "March 31(x3)" pattern-cluster.  Keep in mind that March is named after the God of War, Mars, and 31 is the end of the month, so a cryptic "end of war" communication.  

As for the name John D. Loudermilk the cryptic communication is "young/jeune louder milk". What comes to mind is the "Milkyway Galaxy"... and the dangers the inner twin world have pointed out in regards to the earth's precarious position-- the Sagittarius Dwarf galaxy passing through precisely where we are.

Note this next excerpt from Ben Casey wiki page:

  • The show was known for its opening titles, which consisted of a hand drawing the symbols "," on a chalkboard, as cast member Sam Jaffe intoned, "Man, woman, birth, death, infinity." 
The inner twin world have a thing for symbols.  Note from Sam Jaffe's wiki page:

 Sam Jaffe (March 10, 1891 – March 24, 1984)
Note from the wiki page of the actor who played Ben Casey:
Vince Edwards(born Vincent Edward Zoine; July 9, 1928[2] – March 11, 1996)
