Hey gang-

A little trivia:

According to the bible, how many Wise Men were there that were seeking to visit baby Jesus?

87, but since most of them were too busy fighting off orcs and goblins, only 3 made it to the party.

The Bible doesn't say how many there were. Because there were three gifts, everyone thinks that there were three of them...and there could have been, but we don't know how many...just more than one!

Gaspar, Melchior, and Balthasar, right?... Chrono Trigger anybody?... Evangelion perhaps?...

I remember it to be casper, not gaspar, but that might be a translation thing.

Yeah, for some reason it is Casper in Evangelion.... It's Gaspar in Chrono Trigger though... Wikipedia says it's either Gaspar or Caspar...

All the..."
