Anyone ever given any thought that the Mayan's calendar guy just got tired of writing out their calendar, took a siesta, had a frosty beverage and said: "2012. That should be good enough for now. I'll finish it up in a few years before I retire". ???

That's exactly what I have been saying for years.

I just can't see basing my plans on an extinct race. If they were so smart, why are they extinct in the first place?

The last presidential election was in November of 2008 with Obama taking office in January 2009. The next guy will be elected in November 2012 and take office in January of 2013. Just like the "moron" said.

*ding, ding, ding* We have a winna!!

If they were so effing smart, were was the wiseman with the thought that "perhaps we should not engage in this activity"

I once went on a collection notice for the cable company to a recent business that started up advertising "Psyhic Abilities" and "See Your Future Today".

When I asked for the back due bills on the cable, I was told: "We don't have the money".

When I asked: "Well, when can you pay this bill?"

I was told: "I don't know"

True story......

Nostradomus stated before his death that he saw as late as 3700's. I can't remember the year but it was something like 3758 or so. I do know that it was over 3700. Now, if you want to discuss America as we know it, then that is different. That ended in Nov. 2008.

Dude! DOUBLE MORONITY!! It's like trying to stuff a round in the chamber backwards. Sometimes I even amaze myself. Differential calculus? No problem. Give me twelve months to goof off with, and look what you get. JFC...(yes, it's blasphemy this time)

And while I'm in such a great mood, maybe we should point up the idea that some anthropologists think these folks were eating each other and wiping out each other's children at the end. The Maya basically faded back into the jungle just about as suddenly as they rose to greatness. Probably elected a freaking liberal.
