I heard about the rapture last night.  (I even have a tee shirt that says "always the last to know").

Well, if the world was going to end, I was going to be in a good place when it happened.  Some friends and I spent the day at the Dubuque Renaissance Faire, in Dubuque, IA (we've been planning this for months).

So the world didn't end, but we spent the day in a place of rapture!  And had such a great time, I'm going back again tomorrow!    ;D

Didnt the same guy who "predicted" yesterday, also "predict" it was going to end in 1994? I am not saying it will never happen, I just dont believe we will have the inside track on knowing exactly when....
I hope the prediction of 2012 ends the same way as yesterday! ;D

My mom called me on my cell at 6:05 p.m. yesterday to see if I was still around.
I told her I was 1500 ft. in the air and still rising. She gave me a nervous laugh
and asked, "You are joking right?"

Had to share, it made me LOL :)

From Not Always Right (http://notalwaysright.com/)

(I work for a telecommunications company doing tech support. It's 5/20/11, the day before the supposed Rapture, and I am scheduling a work order.)

Me: "Now, sir, I have appointments open for the 21st. Would that work at all?"

Caller: "Well, yes, we should be around, unless we get Raptured. In that case, we might want to cancel it. Or, if we don't, we might not want to cancel it. Not sure which one is the bigger problem."

Me: "Sir, I do assure you we are well prepared for either eventuality–return of Christ or not. Now, barring Rapture, I have a 1 – 3 pm and 3 – 5 pm. Which would you'd prefer?"

Caller: "1 – 3 pm. If we don't get Raptured, we want time for looting."

Yes, your rescheduled rapture supposedly will take place October 21,2011.

....and its a dang Friday so no chance of actually being inside the fair when it happens.

So isn't the next predicted apocalypse for December 12 or 21?
Or did that go away since Harold Camping died?

Post by: Magpie Flynn on December 09, 2011, 10:11:04 AM
I think the next one is the Mayan End of Days which will be Dec 21 2012. Enough time for 1 more go at Sherwood, Scarby, and TRF!

I heard something recently about them finding another Mayan prophecy that supposedly makes "the end of the world scenario" in 2012, null and void....gods, who knows,lol. ::)

The Mayan calendar is cyclical. 2012 is just the end of a cycle.
