I know. It was probably a huge party in that bunker today...

And if there were any attractive women around someone could always try the old line "Well, it is the end of the world..."

I thought someone was joking when they told me about why this person was out of the office this week. But they used their vacation time and flew to Colorado to stay in a secured bunker in the Rockies. They'd actually planned it out for a while now with a group of other people. Apparently the Colorado Rockies were supposed to be safe from the massive floods that were going to destroy civilization today.

Most everyone who "believed" the world would end today was saying so with tongue firmly in cheek. Of course there were some real believers, but I'm willing to bet they were less numerous than "the Rapture is going to happen on so and so date" crowd.

This is proof that the Christian God exists, is all powerful, and that the Mayans were worshiping false gods. Repent now, accept Jesus Christ as your savior, and join the Tea Party movement before the real day of reckoning.
