    I'm reading Lucifer's Hammer right now- Comet (not from Houston) causes much chaos when it slams (not quite a dunk) into the Earth - Asteroids and Comets do not mix well with Earth. Thank goodness we have the Miss 'L' Defense Shield to save us--- George Dub to the rezque :eek: :rolleyes:

    That was a good read, KingCheeta. I much prefer SF to this possible real-life stuff. :)

    Some say the end is near.
    Some say we'll see armageddon soon.
    I certainly hope we will.
    I sure could use a vacation from this

    Bull**** three ring circus sideshow of
    Freaks

    Here in this hopeless ****ing hole we call LA
    The only way to fix it is to flush it all away.
    Any ****ing time. Any ****ing day.
    Learn to swim, I'll see you down in Arizona bay.

    Fret for your figure and
    Fret for your latte and
    Fret for your hairpiece and
    Fret for your lawsuit and
    Fret for your prozac and
    Fret for your pilot and
    Fret for your contract and
    Fret for your car.

    It's a
    Bull**** three ring circus sideshow of
    Freaks

    Here in this hopeless ****ing hole we call LA
    The only way to fix it is to flush it all away.
    Any ****ing time. Any ****ing day.
    Learn to swim, I'll see you down in Arizona bay.

    Some say a comet will fall from the sky.
    Followed by meteor showers and tidal waves.
    Followed by faultlines that cannot sit still.
    Followed by millions of dumbfounded dip****s.

    Some say the end is near.
    Some say we'll see armageddon soon.
    I certainly hope we will cuz
    I sure could use a vacation from this

    Silly ****, stupid ****...

    One great big festering neon distraction,
    I've a suggestion to keep you all occupied.

    Learn to swim.

    Mom's gonna fix it all soon.
    Mom's comin' round to put it back the way it ought to be.

    Learn to swim.

    **** L Ron Hubbard and
    **** all his clones.
    **** all those gun-toting
    Hip gangster wannabes.

    Learn to swim.

    **** retro anything.
    **** your tattoos.
    **** all you junkies and
    **** your short memory.

    Learn to swim.

    **** smiley glad-hands
    With hidden agendas.
    **** these dysfunctional,
    Insecure actresses.

    Learn to swim.

    Cuz I'm praying for rain
    And I'm praying for tidal waves
    I wanna see the ground give way.
    I wanna watch it all go down.
    Mom please flush it all away.
    I wanna watch it go right in and down.
    I wanna watch it go right in.
    Watch you flush it all away.

    Time to bring it down again.
    Don't just call me pessimist.
    Try and read between the lines.

    I can't imagine why you wouldn't
    Welcome any change, my friend.

    I wanna see it all come down.
    suck it down.
    flush it down.

    Tool- Aenima

    well... we'll probably all kill each other before it hits (wars, terrorism) or our water and other resources will be so contaminated before then, we will welcome the destruction!

    I mean, it can blow up planets, and we have 17 years to construct it.
    Lance Bass, Bruce Willis and Elijah Wood could pilot it (or whatever the hell you do to move the death star)

    Don't worry guys, Im sure Nasa has plenty of Monkeys specially trained on oil rigs in Malasia to do a mission just like this.

    Oh, another asteroids prediction? Shouldn't that happen in 2000 already. If you have a little mathmatician left in you, you know the margin of error in trajectory prediction for 19 years of distance gonna be wide wide wide.

    That aside, there's now hope I can honor my merriage vow.

    King Cheetah. If that's true that's weird. I heard that Atech calendar has never been off by more than a second. Ever. And it just suddenly ends... strange...

    maybe the calender-maker suddenly had a heart attack and died.

    What was really weird for me was the tentative (prior to refined calculation) date for it to hit. February 1, 2019. February 1st is my birthday. (Don't ask how old I'll be! I get bummed enough being as old as I am.) I have every confidence (cough) that all other things being groovy, I'll be partying like a loon without a care in the world... gobbling those rejuvenation pills like crazy. Science! Get busy!
