Nah, I've already seen that movie...

I'm a little late to the party on this one. But here is what CNN has to say about this whole matter.

Just in case you missed it.

ReFaN · 05-20-11, 02:21 PM

i bid you all farewell, because tommorow i will ascend to the heavens!

So, all the righteous, pure, and abstaining people will be swept up to heaven and the rest will be left behind? Sounds like a party for the rest of us. Personally, I'm going to see if I can be somewhere near Keith Richards; it appears wherever he is will be the last place to go at the apocalypse...

Nah, just do like Mark Twain said and move to Cincinnati. Everything here happens ten years later.

it says in that article that some guy in England has been getting tons of clients who want his company to take of their pets after rapture.

Are people really this gullible? It seems so.The convenient thing is they will be able to explain away if no one gets raptured that this is proof how vile and wicked humans are then they will sell things to make you eligible for rapture round 2 and then people will buy into it.

joe he went to bed if you read his last post.

I heard he is ranked the #1 person likely to die last during Armageddon.

He lives in Weston, Connecticut most of the times. So go there!
See what I did? I saved a person! Now that surely must get me on board for heaven tomorrow!

There was a standup comedian who made the comment that cockroaches and Keith Richards were the only lifeforms capable of surving an atomic holocaust. He would do an impression of Keith after the explosions:

[Staggers bleary-eyed to the front of the stage]

"What happened, man? I saw a bright flash of light...are we on?...Where's me guitar, man?..."

Depends on who you save...

If you saved me, you may have much to answer for; a friend once gave me card and said it applied to me: "Boy, am I in trouble when I die; Heaven doesn't want me and Hell is afraid I'll take it over." My friends are cruel, but generally honest in their opinions...

"On the whole, I'd rather be in Philadelphia"
(Quote on the tombstone of W.C. Fields, who hated Philadelphia)

Incidentally, there is story Douglas Fairbanks, Sr. told about finding W.C. Fields intently studying a copy of the Bible with a magnifying glass:

Fairbanks: Bill, What are you doing?

Fields [not looking up]: What does it look like? I'm studying the Bible.

Fairbanks: But, I thought you weren't religious?

Fields [still not looking up]: I'm not.

Fairbanks: Then, why are you studying the Bible?

Fields: I'm looking for loopholes.

Well, you do have friends, so you can't be that bad. Or do these friends happen to be the four horsemen

By the way it's 0:18 here, so did this guy mention a time when all of this apocalypse thing would take pl

vienna · 05-20-11, 05:26 PM

According to the news reports, the end is suppsed to begin (begin the beguine?...) at 6:00 p.m., U.S. East Coast time; your mileage may vary.

Well, I'm not certain if they are the four horsemen, but I am a little concerned about my friend on the pale horse and the one carrying the scythe and hourglass...
