Default Countdown to December 21
December 21, 2012 is upon us. What's your prediction for this day? Honestly, I just can't wait for all these speculations to be over with no matter what happens.

Pffft! It will be the same day as any other day. The world will end someday, but no one knows when or how it will end. There's also a big market in this, including bunker sales, etc. I can't wait to laugh at all the people who invested all of their foolish money.

Meh,...if you look at what it really signifies, it's NOT the end of the world. It's actually supposed to bring forth a new era,...and it's supposed to be a GOOD thing. Not a CATASTROPHY!!!

hah. I didn't realize one of the theories was the pole flip. I read "The Hab Theory" back in the day and thought it was great at the time.

It's good to look at this optimistically but I don't even believe that. They were probably clueless in their "predictions", and if you noticed, I quoted predictions.

I've got shit to do on the 21st so no fun end-of-the-world party for me on the 20th. It'll be just another grinding day of the same old same old.

@Marv:
Any prime minister who can make a joke is a good prime minister.
But the best prime minister was the one who held a record for skulling a beer.

If it truly is the end then I'll be sure to inform you all of your impending demise.
