Roll On The Day After The End Of The World
This coming Saturday, the 21st May, is Judgement Day. You probably knew that already, but, just in case it hasn't been brought to your attention, I thought perhaps you'd like a few days notice so you can tie up any loose ends before the end of the world. So much for the Mayans and their Long Count calendar, eh? Close, but no cigar.
Personally, I'm not planning anything special for Sunday because I suspect, despite it being the day after the end of the world, it will be quite similar to most of the Sundays that have been before (not to mention the ones yet to come). But I might spare a few minutes to go take a look at eBible Fellowship to see what they've got to say for themselves. I've no doubt they'll be able to come up with something to explain why the site is still there, still accessible, and its authors still alive here on planet earth (thanks be to gawd).
I suppose that's the beauty of building a 'house of cards'; it's not a complete disaster when it collapses. And what's more, you can pick up all the cards and build another one in no time at all. Sweet!
Thinking about the countdown to the apocalypse, I considered several songs with countdown in the title which might be appropriate. How about The Final Countdown? Not on your nelly! It really got on my nerves (although this version is ... interesting). I quite like Rush's Countdown lyrics, but the music doesn't crack it for me. I was tempted by My Old School , probably my favourite track on Steely Dan's Countdown To Ecstasy album, but apart from the album title, it's not particularly relevant to the approaching 'End of Days'. But I had to make a choice, and, in the end...
