12212012

I have a perverse need to thumb my nose at the end of the world slated to occur on the Winter Solstice, December 21, 2012.


In case you don't know, we will go kaboom on that date, as foretold by the Mayans and Nostradamus. I, for one, have planned all of my life choices based on these two extremely correct predictive sources, especially since they both agree completely on this topic.


The latest disaster I have heard suggested to end the current human reign on our little blue marble is rapid tectonic plate shifts. New York City will be where the North Pole currently resides and Alaska will straddle the equator. Cool, huh? Other sources of our demise include being hit by an off course rogue planet, the extinguishing of our sun's radiant power just because it's old, Satan and his minions overrunning our innocent selves and Tribbles.


We should begin lobbying to have that Friday declared a world wide holiday. If we are going to die, we should get the day off to spend with those we care most about and while I enjoy my co-workers, I'd rather be with family. 


I plan on sparking a bonfire, lounging in my beach chair while sipping a hot chocolate laced with Godiva® liquor as the fun house ride deposits me somewhere in the arctic zone. How will you be spending your last day of existence?
