Now that inspires a plan. Go to the bank, borrow a million or so to buy the boat of your dreams. Since the world will be ending shortly you won't have to pay it back.

5.5 miles to stop her up and 2.5 miles to turn her! All I can say is, you don't want me bringing her into dock!

Sooo, when is the END!

It's been predicted several times now. And Jesus said we'll never know the time or day.

I've got a nineteen year old cat, who despite lacking much evidence of brains always seems fit to go a bunch more.

The mention of shears made me think of hair cutting scissors and nail clippers.

Will Armaggedon kill everything (apart form ourselves and our boat)?

Will we still be able to fish?


Will strange far off lands still have foreigners in them? Or will be alone at a grocery store counter with cobwebs?

Or will only the people we hate die and a few storms rip about the Caribbean?

Will ATM's still sprout cash? Will cash still work?




I need to know how armadeddonish will armageddon be?????????????
