The End of the World is Nigh!

[Twinky]

Some say it's the end of the world.

Some say it's the end of the present era.

Some say life will never be the same again.

Some say it's a new beginning.

(Wonder if the Malpaks are all ready?)

What's gonna happen? Will anyone read this, or will everyone have disappeared?

Methinks tomorrow will be not dissimilar to last Friday and the Friday before that.

To be followed by a Saturday not greatly dissimilar to preceding Saturdays.

If it really is the beginning of a new era, as the Mayan calendar appears to predict, what would you like to see in the new era that is about to begin? How would you like it to be different?

(Always supposing you survive the changeover, that is...(LOL))

The world ends every day for somebody.

Whatever happens I'm all packed.

For starters, in the new era, I'd like no holidays. To hectic. And no pop either, too much fizz. And I would like to travel in an 1965 Chevy Impala.

Sweet! Let's go for a ride. I've got my 8-track.

If the Mayans were so smart, how come there's no more Mayans?

The was the worst apocalypse yet...Y2K wasn't much better. It seems the older I get, the more dissapointing they become.

If you hang in there long enough, the end of the world will eventually come your way.

Saw a bunch of people supposedly "Mayans" chanting and doing...whatever. They were saying it's not the end of the world but the end of an era or stage.

They're probably as Mayan as I am.

The usual anticlimax, though. Life goes on. It's a friend's birthday today. No doubt he too is pleased it wasn't the end of the world.

Gotta agree with you, Ron. Nothing much seems to have happened. Nobody "gathered" and everything seems to be working okay.

Or,....

the updated version;

The real truth;

Or the truth,... really;

After all, the Mayan Calender is so easy to figure out...

And that is the simplified Poor Riceplanters Almanac version.
