DEATH AND DESTRUCTION
Wow it's been a while....8 months? yeah....
Anyways, here's a good article I just read that is FULL of proof that people are stupid: if I was a Mayan and kept getting asked about the end of the world... I'd probably flip a shit. And if there are things indicating dates after December 21, 2012 that can be found in Mayan inscriptions... I guess the problem here is that people hear something they don't understand and don't get all of the information (if barely any at ALL) and just kinda go crazy from there.
Case in point:
The 13th Baktun of the Mayan Calendar ends on December 21, 2012.
The end of the Mayan calendar!
THE END OF THE WORLD!!!
APOCALYPSE!!!!!!! NOOOOOO!!!!
I am going to die.
This train of thought is vaguely... pathetic. I think I'm missing some steps but who cares.
And on that note... I wonder what kind of crazy shit will go down the week before this happens if there are people actually writing to religion institutes worried that they won't live to see their children grow up. I was going to make some crack about this and some possible comedic scenarios, until I realized how many people will probably kill themselves... possibly en mass... possibly taking their "fate into their own hands" and mercy killing their children.
Oh my god.

New Beginnings!?!?!
So yeah, I've been wanting to do this for a while now....the idea has been stewing.
Premise? I'm pissed. I graduate college in 2011. The world may end the next year? What a jip.
What am I talking about? Well, if you haven't heard, sometime between December 21st and 23rd in 2012, the Mayan Calendar ends. (Different people have different opinions on the exact date....and yeah....so it's actually the Mesoamerican Long Count calendar....and it's not really ending, just completing it's 13th b'ak'tun cycle....but people keep refering to it as the ending of the mayan calendar....)
So what? Well, the world might end. Or maybe we'll be part of a major metaphysical/spiritual transformation and enter the AGE OF AQUARIUS!!!! *cue the music*
So, I intend to deal with all the crazy shit that people keep saying will happen. A geomagnetic pole reversal? Aliens? Creation of a noosphere? The fall of human civilization? I guess you'll find out how I'd deal with these things.
