I heard some ultra right wing nutcase this morning saying that the fact that oil prices were dropping, the stock market is back on an upswing, and the dollar is getting stronger are all signs that the apocalypse is right around the corner. I think that's crazy talk, but I wondered how the rest of you feel about it. Please feel free to weigh in.

A friend of mine believes that this is the last Pope, so who knows? ;)
Those lazy Maya! Why couldn't they continue the calendar past Dec 21, 2012?!
There are claims that they would have if they had enough space.

That will be my 34th (and probably LAST) birthday... ;-)

Well, we live in a world where the New Orleans Saints have won a Superbowl ...
At this point anything is possible.

They wrote their calendar to the end of this astrological era... when the new era begins the calendar resets I suppose?

Hopefully that's just b/c he gets arrested and the catholic church is fined into oblivion (a man can hope, right?).

Gotta love the nutcases (on both sides)...

This is another bunch of hype like Y2K. Don't buy into the planetary alignment bunk either. That's actually happening June 13, 2010. Yes, this year.

BROTHER! I thought I was the only one! I'll be 32 that day...*sniff* We were so young and handsome(well, I have it on good authority that *I* am the handsome one, but YMMV).

I am sticking with my theory. The New Orleans Saints have won the Superbowl, that must be one of the Signs of the Apocalypse!!
The end IS near! You might as well sign all yall's stuff over to me, starting on Dec 22, 2012...

If you're thinking of the prophecies of Saint Malachy, it's the next pope following the current one.

Which might not be that long in coming, depending on how the Pediphilia scandals play out.

No, everyone's stuff is to be split between me, Mistral, and all the others who were born on Dec. 21st to make up for YEARS of being shafed and getting Christmas/Birthday presents...
That's great, it starts with an earthquake, birds and snakes,
an aeroplane - Lenny Bruce is not afraid.
Eye of a hurricane, listen to yourself churn,
world serves its own needs, dummy serve your own needs.
Feed it off an aux speak,, grunt, no, strength,
The ladder starts to clatter with fear fight down height.
Wire in a fire, representing seven games, a government for hire and a combat site.
Left of west and coming in a hurry with the furies breathing down your neck.
Team by team reporters baffled, trumped, tethered cropped.
Look at that low playing!
Fine, then.
Uh oh, overflow, population, common food, but it'll do.
Save yourself, serve yourself. World serves its own needs, listen to your heart bleed dummy with the rapture and the revered and the right - right.
You vitriolic, patriotic, slam, fight, bright light, feeling pretty psyched.
It's the end of the world as we know it.
It's the end of the world as we know it.
It's the end of the world as we know it and I feel fine.
Six o'clock - TV hour. Don't get caught in foreign towers.
Slash and burn, return, listen to yourself churn.
Locking in, uniforming, book burning, blood letting.
Every motive escalate. Automotive incinerate.
Light a candle, light a votive. Step down, step down.
Watch your heel crush, crushed. Uh-oh, this means no fear cavalier.
Renegade steer clear! A tournament, a tournament, a tournament of lies.
Offer me solutions, offer me alternatives and I decline.
It's the end of the world as we know it.
It's the end of the world as we know it. (It's time I had some time alone)

The other night I dreamt of knives, continental drift divide. Mountains sit in a line
Leonard Bernstein. Leonid Brezhnev. Lenny Bruce and Lester Bangs.
Birthday party, cheesecake, jelly bean, boom!
You symbiotic, patriotic, slam book neck, right? Right.

Yeah, I just saw that last night. I couldn't help but wonder if that was him being silly or if he was actually serious.

Very serious, and correct in his reasoning.

Well, the Zentradi didn't exactly show up to give us music and love...although once we exported those to them, peace broke out.

No, this friend makes up her own steaming piles of geusses-from-left-field. She just "knows"... of course she didn't think John Paul II would die until this year either.

BROTHER! I thought I was the only one! I'll be 32 that day...*sniff* We were so young and handsome(well, I have it on good authority that *I* am the handsome one, but YMMV).
It's a big birthday in my family. My mother will be 59 and my partner's mother will be 57.
On the upshot, neither would have to deal with turning 60.
I should probably start planning how to spend all my money on carnal pleasure before the world ends. Oh how time flies.

I am of the opinion that the Official Mayan Calendar Guy got up one morning and said, "Screw this. I'm like, 2000 years ahead of schedule. I'm taking a vacation!"

He's probably just a little sleep deprived and over-excited over waiting for StarCraft II. Or the new V series is rotting his brain.

LMFAO!
I want to know the day this is going to happen.
Not so I can cower and hide but so I know which day to go hiking up one of the mountains out here in AZ so I can scream defiance at the sky.

What version of apocalypse?
If I told you that oil is undervalued, and that its true value is 200 dollars a barrel on the grounds that that is what any state prepared to construct a modern city with a billion population capacity would be obliged to pay for a monopoly on all future use of oil in order to secure the resources it will require, then that would be an apocalypse for rival states who would sooner resort to war than pay for resources in competition with others.
The fact is that currency is worthless. It has no value without the resources to back it up.
The Question is: are you prepared to pay for your resources in a bidding war against your rivals? Do you think you can survive the free market system?
Some of you will be very sorry indeed when the real July 5, 1998 rolls around...unless my friend is right and it's 8661 and someone just read it upside-down... Either way, the X-ists are coming, and the normals and pink boys among you are DOOMED!!
(Unless the X-ists already came, got fooled into thinking that Mars was Earth and no one was home. In that case carry on)
The worst part about that, CH, is that one day some douche will be right by pure luck...
