Just got the local weather forecast for the remainder of time........  ;D  ;D
"I expect perdition, I always have. I keep this building at my back, and several guns handy, in case perdition arrives in a form that's susceptible to bullets. I expect it will come in the disease form, though. I'm susceptible to diseases, and you can't shoot a damned disease." ~ Judge Roy Bean, Streets of Laredo

For the Patriots of this country, the Constitution is second only to the Bible for most. For those who love this country, but do not share my personal beliefs, it is their Bible. To them nothing comes before the Constitution of these United States of America. For this we are all labeled potential terrorists. ~ Dean Garrison

I look on the bright side and consider it a warming trend.
""It may be laid down as a primary position, and the basis of our system, that every Citizen who enjoys the protection of a free Government, owes not only a proportion of his property, but even his personal services to the defence of it, and consequently that the Citizens of America (with a few legal and official exceptions) from 18 to 50 Years of Age should be borne on the Militia Rolls, provided with uniform Arms, and so far accustomed to the use of them, that the Total strength of the Country might be called forth at a Short Notice on any very interesting Emergency." - George Washington.

I heard tell this is a good time to pick up new age chicks.

Thanks to some comments from friends I'm still doing my Singing Santa routine tonight and will be performing my speciallly written song, "Defyin' the Mayans". It will be worthless to record, but if I can get a quick version together I'll post it within a few days.
I got the blues as my companion.

Ok....I have a plan for this.

I plan to drink a 5th of Rum this evening.   Just think, if it is true, NO HANGOVER!!


actually, I don't think today will be the end because of the Mayan Calendar.  The Sports Illustrated Calendar runs out at the end of the month and I think it will be then
Is life so dear, or peace so sweet, as to be purchased at the price of chains and slavery? Forbid it, Almighty God! I know not what course others may take; but as for me, give me liberty or give me death!"
—Patrick Henry

"Good intentions will always be pleaded for every assumption of authority. It is hardly too strong to say that the Constitution was made to guard the people against the dangers of good intentions. There are men in all ages who mean to govern well, but they mean to govern. They promise to be good masters, but they mean to be masters."
— Daniel Webster

Good point.  You may have something there.   ;D

Any body who put serious thought into it knew it was just a case of "They ran out of rock".
It fell exactly on a solstice .
Not having access to atomic clocks and such "primitive" societies went by lunar cycles, 13 months of 28 days with no leap anything.
Dec 21st is the last solstice of the year. It is unlikely that world apocalypse would fall on that particular day, just like it is unlikely to occur on Dec 31st.

But it was fun while it lasted and some of the idiots actually took it serious.  ;D

We got a little snow for the solstice but not enough to shovel. We should get some more on Christmas.
