I've got tomorrow all planned out.

If I'm not dead when I wake up, I'm going mountain biking. Should be plenty of snow to ride in!

Don't be silly. Our sun isn't big enough to super nova. It will go red giant and expand to past our orbit, in about 4 billion years...

Yeah, I remember when Elizabeth Clair Prophet was predicting the end of the world, had all the underground living quarters built up next to Yellow Stone, all the crazies didn't pay their bills, laughed as they got traffic tickets, they were going to be the only ones left after that day. Didn't happen then won't happen this time. but if it does, forget I said this.

REM, good choice. 4 1/2 hrs to go, can't forget to take the shot glasses, as I toast the end from my glass enclosed command center.

Leap year was added after the Myans made their calendar. The extra days added by leap years put the end of the world about 7 months ago. Just sayin'...

Still, I'm waiting to pay my bills till next week.

I woke up alive (YEAH!!! ALIVE!!!) and after a wonderful cup of coffee, headed out to the lake for a ride. Just one other rider out there today. He was also taking a "End of the world ride."

Beautiful and peaceful.
