Weekly World News

At least there is someone else (other than me) in BCTS that enjoys the humor that WWN puts out.

The world had better end on Friday ...

... or we're in deep trouble. We've had a whale of a time over the last few months and managed to empty our bank accounts. Not a penny left. You means there's some doubt? Ooops.

The big question is

what time zone is the End of the World going to occur in? It'd have been pretty spiffy if the Mayans could have left us the time the show was going to start and where ^^

ps. Can we bring our own food in too?

Depending if their clock was the same and they observed UTC

If we want to assume: a) They knew amount Greenwhich and the Prime Meridian; b)they used Greenwhich Mean Time and observed Coordinated Universal Time (UTC), c) Then all of Central America (did they know about Amerigo Vacpucci?) is on UTC -6 which is similar to U.S. Central Time. Which is as I type or is that keyboard for our younger readers, it is now 11:36 PM (12:36 where I am inputing this.

So, if the world will end at 12:00:01 AM. we all have just about 12 hours and 24 minutes to go.

Of course if they had there own DST we can add or subtract an hour.

Good luck all

End of the world?

Not at all!!! NEVER happened in the past when some group predicted world's end, here we still are.

Only with the pun police, dear

I'm sure they'll let you off with a warning.
THIS time.... :). *Sigh**

Just a groan Andrea. And a smile, a small one, but it is there.

End of what?

There seems to have been a slight error when interpreting what the Mayan calendar was predicting at its end.

I'm pretty sure it was supposed to read "The End of Autumn".

Spending the End of the World with All of You

If the world does end, I have my 2 bugout bags and a shelter to go to if the baobs dont appear around the world for us to step into. Ill spend it here with all of you tonight and tomorrow. I do pray nothing happens. I have a movie I want to see May 17, 2013 Star Trek - Into the Darkness by JJ Abrahms with Erin when I am there visiting. ^^

All of you are my family and there is no other place I'd rather be but here.

If the world was to end at 24:00 UTC or PST, it's  
now officially late!!

Still, if the world were to end, I can't think of anyplace else I'd rather be than here, with Erin, you, my Twin, my two closest sisters, and the rest of my family here.

I feel sad for our future

I feel sad for our future generations. We are using up all the good end of the world days and all the will have left is some nut no one cares about saying the world is going to end. We got to have both Y2K (ah, the memories) and the Mayan calender. I can't think of any credible ones that might happen in the future. I guess they will just have to improvise.

Next one

JC death +2000 years, estimated date of crucifixion April 3, 33. The next one is not that far ...
But I'm sure some lunatics will found a lot of others, from Nostradamus or any other sources.

hmmm, maybe I should open my

hmmm, maybe I should open my presents early? I mean it would be kind of a waste getting them all then the world ending before you got to open them, wouldn't it?

the end of the world

well if we do go out in a blaze of what ever and the sky falls and hits chicken little we will never know what happened so why worry. this little blue ball and i do mean little has been hit, wrote off and remade many times. it will happen some day just when that is we wont know. So to sum up for me i really don't give a fart anyway i got more pressing matters to worry about.

End of the World

Well, if the world ends tomorrow I don't have to finish the project I'm working on. See there's a silver lining to everything.

It can't end now

YOU haven't finished our stories, so get to work. You're throwing everything off schedule.

Here in Indiana

there is an inside joke about whenever the ground turns white, even with frosst, the stores sell out of bread, milk, eggs, and ammo, like people will not be able to shop for a week or more. So tonight, I texted my wife the forecast (we are getting hit by the great winter storm) and told her to bring the supplies home with her in the morning (she has to work nites, since she works at w$lly w$rld). The I told her to disregard, since the world is supposed to end today. She didn't catch it at first. I had to explain it.

Still here.

Still here.

...but it's telling me we passed the Mayan sunrise about half an hour ago. Oh, well...happy 14th era, everybody.

No end of the world

Well it seems the world did not end today. Guess this means I will have to start cleaning the house and pay the bills that are due today, wait am I finding the black filling to the silver lining of still being here. I do wonder what the people who really believed and seemed to want the end will be doing now, that is if they didn't off themselves before the end.

End of the world.

Here I sit Fri. morning 9:13am writing this.I think some these people that were so adamant that the world was going to end because the Mayan calender ended at some point this morning didn't take into account that there wasn't anymore more Mayan's to work on a new calender. Considering the Spanish wiped them out as a culture over 500 years ago. But it would seem to be more fun to create mass hysteria for their own amusement. Glad I didn't run up the credit cards or buy that Ferrari I've always wanted. Because it would appear that I would have to come up with the money after all.

I want to wish everyone a Merry Christmas & a Happy New Year!

Not Completely Gone...

We had a tribal elder speak (in a native language -- Nahuatl, IIRC -- translated by her anthropologist friend) at a lecture in San Francisco several months ago, mostly about traditional food and annual celebrations. She told us that she didn't expect anything to happen when the calendar changed over.

BTW, Michael Coe's Breaking the Maya Code (1992, Thames & Hudson), says the first apocalyptic prophecy discovered -- which dates from the Colonial period in Mexico, not pre-Columbian times -- posits December 23, 2012, not the winter solstice, as the first day of the 13th cycle. So there's still time...

(And I referred to the 14th cycle in my original note. So if anyone's archiving this in 7137-38 CE, happy new cycle. For the rest of us, let's hope it's a lucky 13.)

I'm thinking nothings happening.

It would figure my blog with a joke about the band R.E.M. an the end of the world, would yield me the most comments I've ever gotten. Dodged an apocalypse smiles, Jenn.
