December 21st 2012 - What's your thoughts on that day?
Please Login to Remove!
It seems like there's not a day that goes by that there's not a movie, special, etc about the apocalypse prophecy that foretells the End of the World. My wife believes it will happen, my glass is half full on the subject and I figured it would be a good "sensitive" discussion topic.
thoughts?

Oh, I'll put a $1,000,000 bet that the world DOES NOT end on 12/21/2012. Of course, if it does who is going to collect from me?

Balderdash. It can't end, the government hasn't figured out a way to take our entire paycheck as taxes yet.

I'm hoping aliens show up. We all know they had much to do with the development of the Aztec and Mayan civilizations.

You know... if it ends, I'm in good shape. If it doesn't, I'm in good shape too. Of all the foolish things to worry about.

And I will be the second.
12-21-12 will be cold in new England, with night followed by day followed by night.
Whatever happens will happen and we really have no control over it whatsoever.

This rock will still be revolving around the sun. Regardless of whether we humans inhabit it or not.

December 22, 2012, I'll be giving up on searching for gifts and buying gift cards instead, just like every year.

The Great Disappointment of 2012
This isn't the first time that the nutjobs have declared the end is near and here is the date. My favorite is "The Great Disappointment of 1844." Read up on it and how the crazies from that "dooms day" are still trying to screw things up for us sane ones today. Wiki is a good place to start.
The best explaination I heard for the Dec 21, 2012 date is that the Mayan stonemason ran out of stone.

It will all go arse up on 12/20/2012 (or 20/12/2012 to UK peeps)
You all have the wrong date.
Get with the game.

I think the Mayans figured they went out far enough & someone in the future would, you know, just ADD ON to it.

The Mayan calendar is like the Y2K bug. They just stopped because they figured there's no way anyone would still be using it by now.
Ok, actually I heard it's more akin to December 31st. It just starts right back up the next day on January 1, with the calendar starting all over again.
