OT End of the world is nigh! (Today in fact.)
Heh Heh! Only in America!
On theTV. I see some whacko Yank is prediciting the end of the world today. He looks totally mad. Clearly the product of too much Hollywood watching. Another has microwaved her baby to death presumably to avoid this event. It is apparently all in the bible. The Australians are to get it first by massive earthquake. Bye then! Been nice knowing y'all. |

I've maxed out all my credit cards and played with all the new toys for the past few weeks. The bill is due on Monday, but since we won't be here, who cares? I'm all set to screw the banks. Bought a new luxury car I can't afford, but the payment is not due until mid next week. It won't hit here on the east until later in the evening. I planned to wash the car and mow the grass, but I suppose it would be smart to skip that and do more pleasurable things. I was going to rent a movie, but why bother if I'll never see how it ends. |

Been nice knowing y'all. American Samoa used to be the first place to meet the sun, but they've decided to move themselves ot the other side of the date line. Now they will the last place to see the sun set. But you'll be able to celebrate your birthday in Samoa, and then with a short boat or plane ride, celebrate it again 24 hours later but the same day, in American Samoa. |

Do you have an available sexual activity partner? Such as a spouse, or a "steady" girlfriend/boyfriend? What's so bad about doing "bedroom activities" in the final hours? With "mariage relationship", maybe both of you would get "raptured" together. And in the likely event of being together in bed the next day, *Prepare Thyselves* - keep your mood good! As for those not married or engaged or in "going-steady" relationships: F*** your brains out with any like-minded person if you consider *reliable* this May-2011 stuff to be actually reliable. I never considered the May 2011 "Judgement Day" stuff worth more than jokes, or an excuse to commit an act of infidelity. - Don Klipstein ) |
