It's the End of the World As We Know It...

or as THEY know it? Funny, it's the end of a "world" every time you change your surroundings or your frame of focus. Go to a movie and you're in the world of the cinema. I played in a bar last night that had THREE huge sections to it. One was mainly country music and had the vibe that that implies. Line dancing and cowboy hats and boots. The area where I played was more of a deck feel. Lots of flashing lights and loud music. Then outside they had a tiki sort of beach area. Each time I went to a different section, it was LITERALLY a DIFFERENT "world". So today is supposed to be the end of the world. Wouldn't all of the retailers have jumped on this? ESPECIALLY the places that sell calendars and cards? Who is going to need a 2011 with June through December now? Those should be AT LEAST 70% mark down. We won't be getting back around to Christmas so any ornaments, etc... heck.. THOSE should be given away just for walking into the store today, no? What about when you go to Disney World. It's IMPLIED there that it's a SPECIFIC world. When you leave, it's the END of that world... as you know it. Or by now, KNEW it. Or perhaps the Vogons, from the BRILLIANT "Hitchhiker's GUide to the Galaxy": are ACTUALLY really FINALLY here to set up the hyperspace by-pass and Earth is in the way. Tsk Tsk mankind! The plans have been available for viewing for a VERY long time. For more about Vogons: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vogon
Anyway... it's time to get ready to go enter the world of a wedding about to take place in Mamaroneck, NY. We are playing the reception. What an interesting reception it will be. The couple experiences rapture DURING THEEE Rapture.

Giovanni Gelati I was waiting for the store sales also, who wants to carry inventory at a time like that? Great insights.

BigDaddy Abel Thank you.
MOSTLY you would expect all the milk, bread and eggs to disappear from grocery store shelves. Hell, if a few snow flakes causes a mob flash in there.... well.... you get the idea.

Giovanni Gelati I agree.I have never understood the snow thing myself.
