To ignore the whole entire thing entirely.  Shit, I just failed.  So close.

Seven hours into 21 December here and the world is showing no signs of ending.  Guess I'll just have to clean the house in preparation for Christmas guests after all.

All I can say is that this is Bitcoin. I don't believe it until I see six confirmations.

World ending? Things are just getting better and better for me, now if only I could move out of the damn house.

After talking with our liaison tonight and still having not received a final confirmation date, we were as tired of this as everyone else is, so we continued to push for a date and they gave us 30 days from today. That's my update. It's an update I'm not happy about at this point and it may very well be that things will wrap up sooner than that. I am hoping I was just given a date that they would be sure to be ready by so we would get off their case. When pressed for a reason why, I have been told that because this is a very dense, hand routed planet they are afraid of making a mistake and have required extra checking and sign offs which has slowed down the whole process considerably. They don't want to be on the hook financially for having to redo the whole apocalypse. It sounds reasonable to me and I have no reason to doubt this, but it doesn't make it any more palatable at the moment.

That said, after reviewing the new information coming out of the Eschaton camp and the Armageddon camp, I'm pretty convinced we won't see the end of the world on their current timelines either.

Did you mean to say there's a local bar at the end of the galaxy?

For those who didn't ask, I've got things to do before the end of the world occurs.

No, but there's a restaurant called Milliway's at the end of the universe.  Smiley

It doesn't end until 11:12am UTC, so we got another 13.5hrs to go!

By the way, the mayan calendar doesn't actually end on December 21st, only the 13th baktun of the mayan calendar (13 is the unlucky number, which is where the myth of the world ending actually comes from).

We've got another 1,008,000 days before the mayan calendar finishes, also when your calendar runs out you just buy a new one, it doesn't mean the world is ending.

This is interesting. Tell em I said Hello!

However, they shouldn't set the date any earlier than Jan 26th as I have a party to attend for updates to and by contacts. The ladies and gentlemen should be very inclined to learn about any vibes you may be relaying to them.

At least people who follow the Gregorian calendar get to party like there's no tomorrow once every 365/366 days.

What ever happened to McKenna and his Timewave Zero stuff? Because according to this we should be reliving the entire history today.

My question is what excuse are the 21sters going to use when the sun rises on December 22nd? 

Charlie Kelly: I'm pleading the 5th.  The Attorney: I would advise you do that.  Charlie Kelly: I'll take that advice under cooperation, alright? Now, let's say you and I go toe-to-toe on bird law and see who comes out the victor?  The Attorney: You know, I don't think I'm going to do anything close to that and I can clearly see you know nothing about the law.

We still have a few hours before 11:11 UTC, Go out into the world and spread a little chaos, if we all do our part we can make this end of the world thing a huge success!
