The Inside Story!
The Law of Fives
The Law of Fives is one of the oldest Erisian Mysterees. It
was first revealed to Good Lord Omar and is one of the great contributions
to come from The Hidden Temple of The Happy Jesus.
POEE subscribes to the Law of Fives of Omar's sect. And POEE
also recognizes the holy 23 (2+3=5) that is incorporated by Episkopos
Dr. Mordecai Malignatus, KNS, into his Discordian sect, The Ancient
Illuminated Seers of Bavaria.
The Law of Fives states simply that:
ALL THINGS HAPPEN
IN FIVES, OR ARE DIVISIBLE BY OR ARE MULTIPLES OF FIVE, OR ARE
SOMEHOW DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY APPROPRIATE TO 5.
The Law of Fives is never wrong.
In the Erisian Archives is an old memo from Omar to Mal-2:
"I find the Law of Fives to be more and more manifest the
harder I look."

This made Eris angry, and so She fashioned an apple
of pure gold** and inscribed upon it KALLISTI
("To The Prettiest One") and on the day of the fete She
rolled it into the banquet hall and then left to be alone and joyously
partake of a hot dog.
Now, three of the invited goddesses,***
Athena, Hera, and Aphrodite, each immediately claimed it to belong
to herself because of the inscription. And they started fighting,
and they started throwing punch all over the place and everything.
Finally Zeus calmed things down and declared that an arbitrator
must be selected, which was a reasonable suggestion, and all agreed.
He sent them to a shepherd of Troy, whose name was Paris because
