44 47 | Ray Kroc, McDonald's and Grinding It Out | What's the Deal with San Bernardino?

Ray Kroc served in the same company as Walt Disney during World War II.  Strangely enough, the two men would go on to be considered some of the most important men in the history of the country, and quite possibly, the world.  If you're not familiar with Ray Kroc, he is the founder of the chain of fast food restaurants known as 'McDonald's'.  He established the restaurant just outside of Chicago after buying the rights to it from the McDonald brothers of San Bernardino, California.  If you follow this blog, you're familiar with the fact that I routinely say that all of this "bad" seems to come out of Chicago, and McDonald's and "fast food" is certainly bad, whether we realize it or not.

• Ray = 18+1+25 = 44
• Kroc = 11+18+15+3 47
• Ray Krock = 44+47 = 91

The numerology of San Bernardino, California is also quite revealing.

• San = 19+1+14 = 34
• Bernardino = 2+5+18+14+1+18+4+9+14+15 = 100
• California = 3+1+12+9=6+15+18+14+9+1 = 88
• San Bernardino, California = 34+100+88 = 222

Alternatively...

• San = 1+1+5 = 7
• Bernardino = 2+5+9+5+1+9+4+9+5+6 = 55
• California = 3+1+3+9+6+6+9+5+9+1 = 52
• San Bernardino, California = 7+55+52 = 114

Ray Kroc wrote the book Grinding It Out, which is a title with fantastic Gematria.

• Grinding = 7+9+9+5+4+9+5+7 = 55
• It = 9+2 = 11
• Out = 6+3+2 = 11
• Grinding It Out = 55+11+11 = 77

Let us close by examining the Gematria of the restaurant name, 'McDonald's', and think about this in light of its famous symbol, the golden arches with the wording in white.

• McDonald's 4+3+4+6+5+1+3+4+1 = 31
• 31 is the foundational degree of Scottish Rite Freemasonry
• If you tip the logo on it's side, it looks much like a 13, which is the inverse of 31

The name McDonald is also quite 'American'.

• McDonald = 13+3+4+15+14+1+12+4 = 66
• Think "Happy" Meal
• Happy = 8+1+16+16+25 = 66
