Also "Kissinger" (66+54+114+114+54... = 666)!  I saw this one ~10 years ago in
a pamphlet handed to me by a member or a pseudo-religious cult.

PS:  OK, now a joke:  

A man went into a coma in 1959 and didn't come out of it until 10 years later.
He looked out the window of his hospital room and noticed that the flag was
flying at half-mast.

He asked a nurse "Why is the flag at half-mast?"
"Eisenhower just died."
"Dammit!  That means that S.O.B. Nixon is president!"
