144 is a dozen dozens . Even better, 144 is one gross . Psalm 144 begins with the statement: Praise be to the LORD my Rock, who trains my hands for war, my fingers for battle. Section 144 of Bangladesh Code of Criminal Procedure prohibits assembly of five or more persons, public meetings, and carrying firearms. This is probably why The Polyphonic Spree have chosen not to tour Bangladesh. The total land area of Bangladesh is 144 thousand square kilometres. As of 2005, the population of Bangladesh was approximately 144 million . Thus, if your get a dozen dozen Bangladeshis, times that number by one million , get them to praise the LORD with a rock concert (featuring The Polyphonic Spree which would be in breach of Section 144 of Bangladesh Code of Criminal Procedure) that went for 144 hours , it would smell gross . Probably.
