IF The World Ends Tomorrow

IF The World Ends Tomorrow.......

If so I had a great adventure! And on the upside will not have to pay 2013 taxes!

But if it doesn't end, I still am having a great adventure and it will suck paying 2013 taxes....

I'll be really pissed. I was looking forward to retiring in August.

I'm 9.5 hours ahead of all of you so, I'll shoot out a WARNORD ASAP when anything besides IEDs, SIEDs, VBIEDs, MBIEDs, BBIEDs, rocket/mortar attacks, SAF, etc.

Sleep well and stay tuned for thou is your early-warning system for the "supposedly" impending doom that may set upon all you heathens!

I'm not all that comforted by the time zone argument. Here's why.

Little dude had his 11th birthday on the 17th.
*Got the birthday breakfast
*Got the cupcakes with his classmates
*Got the dinner of his personal choice
*Got the presents and cake with family (not to be confused with something that looked almost the same at a restaurant/bowling alley on the previous Saturday. Nor the planned extravaganza peer party scheduled for after the holidays)
*Got the cupcakes with his basketball team after practice
*Got to stay up a little late followed by Mom and I thanking him for picking us to be his parents. then finally off the bed.

The next morning when he was told to get his own breakfast he pointed out: "Ya know. . . . I was was born at 4:27 in the afternoon. So, technically, it's still my birthday."

I'll uncross my fingers when it ain't the 21st anywhere. But if the world comes to an end. Thanks!

Technically, he is correct and has a valid argument that if, this was heard in a court-of-law, you'd stand an excellent chance of losing.

The young lad could probably get a lawyer to do it pro bono.

BTW...Don't hate the player, hate the game because it's quite evident that you've taught him to play the game.

Stay safe and I'll keep you folks abreast of the impending doom.

You're not paying taxes at the moment is actually what you meant?

BTW...you can have that location. I've never had any joy there.

10 hours left for this location....

Stay safe.

Well...I'm still here... This is like the whole Y2K thing... Is it the beginning where it ends or does it end at the end?

Mayans are so vague.

On 01/01/2000 my coffee pot turned on at 0530 and brewed up a pot of coffee.

It didn't care about Y2K - it just knew that at 0530 each morning it was to click on.

Jeez, that was 12 years ago.

Still here and the island has not sank. Hell I think it is going down every day.

Flying out Saturday morning not matter what the nuts say.

If the apocalypse is today, I've got a nice little bottle of red wine that should be about ready.

Otherwise, I've got a lot of campfires to build, pineneedle tea to sip, and lots and lots of steel to shape, Lord willin'.
