Idunno, according to the L.A. TV news stations, seems like any little rumble in the ground is a major event.

I'll never forget the Hector Mine quake. It was pitiful watching the news coverage because the only damage they found was an Amtrak train derailed out on the desert somewhere. "Tragically" for the news agencies, who sent armadas of helicopters to the scene to show us the carnage, no one was seriously hurt. The best the news copter cameras could bring us was hours-long birds-eye-views of a couple of cranes lifting the train cars back onto the tracks. What a joke!

Then again, maybe the joke was on me for watching it for hours.

If it happens it happens, but nobody could possibly know when and if it will happen. It's all propaganda. Don't buy into it.
LMAO @ dates mapped out and pulling the blinds.


Like the Bible says no one knows that day and that's good enough for me.

You shouldn't worry about 2012, you should worry about 2020.

Anyways the Mayan calendar DOES NOT END IN 2012. Today's Mayans say it themselves. Their belief is, when 2012 comes. We will have a new Beginning. Anyways, theres too much things happening 2012 I find it all funny. Come on now?

What does it matter when the end comes. Today in LA someone will get killed. It happens all the time, people kill themselves, they get sick and die. If you die, the end of your world is now. Why should we care when or if LA is going to fall into the ocean. I highly doubt it will happen. Better to choose how you will live than think about how you might die. Everyone is waiting for the Second Coming of the Savior Jesus Christ. Think about it, if you were to die today your wait it over. Better to be prepaired at all times to meet your maker than to wonder how it will happen.

I could be misguided, but I have researched this 2012. My research, which is ongoing, has found scholarly evidence to support that there is an additional planet that is in our solar system. It has a oblong orbit ( like a football).

The orbit of this planet is 3600 years. It's coming from the southern hemisphere. There is a observatory in the remote areas of the south pole that has taken photographs of this planet.

No, the world will not end, but according to my info many will die because once it comes closer to our planet it will cause earth quakes, global warming, pole shifts, ect. BTW, the people in the know say that global warming is also happening to OTHER planets as well, but yet the politicians don't talk about that? Hmmm?

In a few years, if this stuff is true, this planet will proceed to pass around our earth and in the process will take up the day and night time sky. The Government obviously wont be able to hide this so once you see a red cross look in the sky, all I can say is head for the middle of any large land mass. However, I would go long before I could see anything in the sky. Ha, your leaders will be in bunkers DEEP in the earth that were built by "our" children AND funded by "our" tax dollars by the way.

So in the end, like I said, if this is true, it explains why great civilizations were wiped out (Atlantis) and why the dinosaurs were wiped out, and why some animals were found frozen in there tracks with food still in there mouths as if Subzero from Mortal Kombat shot ice at it (The rapid pole shift) and why the Government has a food bank with all the seeds from around the world in it, and so on and so on...
