I guess I'd better run for office in 2012 instead of 2016.

If your really into the 2012 doomsday stuff check out the latest Bible Codes, predictions by Nostradamus in addition to the Myan calendar. Least we forget the grouping of the crystal skulls. Everything seems to point to December 2012 as the end of us! Added to this, my son who is 20 and a junior in college wanted to drop out last year with his buddies when all this doomsday stuff came out, deciding to stay drunk and sleep around til 2012 with his friends because,"the worlds going to end anyways, dad"!!!!! He is presently in college and can witness the end after he graduates!

There are some interesting revelations about this prediction. Planet alignment square in the middle of the Milky Way Galaxy creating catastrophic events that many feel are actually beginning to occur with greater strength and repetition, reversal of the earths poles, magnetic distortion and of course the famous asteroid impact that will create a life extinction event.

Strange to think that its in our time that something so catastrophic can happen.
Will it?

But when I reach 20,000 posts, there's the chance someone's world might end.

Since the Egret ate my Koi I have buried my guitar behind the waterfall to the pond.

Since the Large Hadron Collider full power collision was put off last year due to failures and budget problems, I have been waiting for the new announcement on when they will be scheduling the new experiment. I think it would be really, really good PR to schedule it on December 21st, 2012. That'll get people talking.

Yeah, but will we be able to milk any "2012" conversion projects?

I was in 2000. Maybe in 2012, it'll be what buys me my 997.

Suckers...
