What is Really Going On?

So there are those folks who swear that next year, 2012, it's all going to come to an end. Not sure if it's gonna be a big bang (who doesn't love a big bang?) or more like someone just turning out the lights. One moment we are all carrying about our business, the next...poof, we are gone.

Now I am not usually one to get caught up in the hysteria of stuff like this. I mean really, when Y2K hit I was blitzed out of my head in the French Quarter. Do you think I stopped for a minute to think 'Oh shit, this might be it.'? Nope. I just kept on dancing and drinking whatever libation was in my hand and twirled into the new year. But this time around there is just too much weird stuff happening. Flocks of birds flying along their merry way one minute, then dropping from the sky the next. Schools of fish swimming upstream so they can do the nasty (otherwise known as spawning) suddenly going belly up. Now it appears that the Egyptians are going to beat themselves into non-existence. And the half of America is having the worst blizzard they have experienced in a decade. All signs are pointing towards a cataclysmic end to life as we know it. So I'm going to need all of you to get your life right, just in case, if you know what I mean.

Now if anyone needs me, I'll be following the man around with that 'The End Is Near' sign, speaking in tongues and looking all crazy. If it's gonna happen, at least I'm going to have a good time.
