end of days

I was flipping through the channels on cable last night and came across a program on The History Channel that captured my attention. Actually it freaked me out a little. It had to do with the significance of December 21, 2012.

Based on research of multiple prophecies, including the Sibylline Oracles, I Ching, Merlin, the Mayans and the Hopi Indians, a number of overly analytical professor type people with bad hair have predicted a cataclysmic event on that date. They basically conclude that I we can kiss our asses goodbye in just four years and a few weeks.

Since most prophecies of the past have not come true (i.e. Nostradamus), I'm not too incredibly concerned. I'm definitely not ready to dig up my yard and build a fallout shelter. And, darn, I may have to pay my bills.

But the fact that all these nerds were able to come to the same date by looking at all of these different prophecies from around the world was a little disconcerting. That program really had me at the edge of my seat.

So now what do I do with this newly gained knowledge of a possible end to all things human?

I think the answer is clear...Partay!!!!

You're all invited to my End of Days Extravaganza on December 20, 2012. It will definitely be in Las Vegas. Who wouldn't want to spend their last full day on Earth in the city famous for sin? I wonder if I can get some cool bands to play? I'll make some calls. Oh, and feel free to bring the kids. It's their last day so they might as well go wild with the grown ups.

If the world doesn't actually come to an end the following day, just remember that "what happens in Vegas, stays in Vegas."
