Time for Thorns

An independent view on life.

Mayan non-apocalypse…

Well,  we’re  still here.   Of course,  the Mayans never actually claimed the  world would  end,  a fact apparently unknown to a great many people,  including  school officials  in Michigan.   The long-count calendar is only one of many calendars the Mayans developed.  How depressing is it that we are flooding NASA  with concerned phone calls?     The Mayans  descendants aren’t  worried.   The media is disappointed,  facing the possibility it will have to do actual reporting on real world problems.

If the world continues,  we’ll see more of  the doomsayers  adjust to a position of saying this was merely the end  of an era.   New Yorkers,  and no doubt many Californians,  are looking  to hook up against the end.   If you still want to worry about it,  here are some  potential disasters  to fret over.  Andrew Malcolm amusingly notes some  of the things  which The End would have spared us from.   Of course,   the night isn’t over yet…

UPDATE:  Since it appears we’ll make it, have some  other doomsday  predictions that didn’t happen.
