Family Radio's Harold Camping says that on Saturday it's the end of the world with a gigantic earthquake causing all of the dead people to be tossed alive out of their graves. Those who don't believe in Harold Camping are supposed to get thrown to the ground (and I think he said die). What are you planning on for this Saturday? I plan on working on the garden.

I don't believe in the guy, I guess I better repent though, just in case.

Does anyone know what time Saturday it will be? I don't want to set around all day waiting. I have other things to do.

I guess Camping's problem is that he received a civil engineering degree from Cal-Berkeley, but here's the scoop:

Something tells me I'll be sitting here on Sunday morning with a cup of coffee as usual.

With everyone and their dog believing that the end of the world is coming Dec 21, 2012, it's time to spend this fateful Saturday planning your 'In Your Face' bash for the Dec 22nd, 2012 and yes, be sure to toast Joe's human side that day on his birthday because without which, it would have sucked to escape the Morg if it wasn't for his actions that made it into the history books that they don't talk about publically :)

But dead people getting coughed up? Yeeeew. I'll stay in. It'll probably rain anyway.

I'm renting a U-Haul and auctioning off their stuff on eBay. Of course, any of their atheist children will have first choice.

PS. I am so jealous of the atheist who set up the Rapture Pet Care insurance scam. Now THAT's an entrepreneur. You disappear, he comes and finds a new home for kitty among the evil people waiting for destruction.

LDS Social Network forums are heavily into the whole May 21st prediction:

http://www.lds.net/forums/lds-gospel-discussion/39187-may-21-2011-another-judgment-day-claim.html

They will be so pissed off if the evangelical christians got this right, and got the whole rapture thing going before the mormons had a chance to jump on board.

Most of the social network commenters are just revealing that they're as tempted by this scenario as they are by masturbation.

One mormon commenter noted that her food storage was not up to Rapture standards.

I read some stuff over the weekend about how Camping came up with his numbers (6 p.m. eastern on Saturday). It's even more absurd in the details.

I have tickets to a concert that afternoon and I think it will be a doozy. Would hate for it to be interrupted by something silly like the end of the world.

I'm gonna borrow a million dollars that I won't have to pay back and go stay at a 5 star resort Friday and Saturday night (until the end comes) and I will have no stress about paying anything back because - well, it's the end....... :-)

Jimmy Buffett would be better though. Just saying......

I'll probably stay indoors. Curing my hangover, from the night before, with pizza and books. Let us know if you see a zombie.

There is a family in Florida- Both parents quit their jobs and budgeted their savings to last until the 21st. Oh, and the wife is pregnant and they have a 2 year old daughter. She also quit medical school for this. I was aghast when I relayed this to BF, and he responded, "Yeah it's awful, but would you really wanted to be treated by a doctor who is clearly unstable?"

Three words:

I just noticed the "enter code" for my reply contains the letters "CUM", so maybe I'll get lucky and the earth will move in other ways........

During this Saturday's "alleged" earthquake I will be planting another orange tree in my yard. (Living in FL has it's advantages, but it is getting hot.) These wacko fundie Christians give the rest of us more liberal Christians a bad name, and I hope all atheists and agnostics don't make the assumption all Christians hold the same view. The Bible does say, "we know not the day nor the hour." As Timothy says on his"What are you drinking tonight? Friday entries, "Party on Mates!"

We're going camping. Maybe we'll bring extra supplies in case we're the only survivors. The world will be shit out of luck because there won't be any multiplying and replenishing the earth at our age.
