Don’t make any weekend plans.
Harold Camping, the end-of-times preacher who incorrectly calculated that the world would end on May 21, has a new prediction. The apocalypse is actually going to be this Friday, he now says.
(Here’s a Christian Post article that links to a slew of other coverage.)
After the first Rapture date came and went, Camping came in for a bit of static. Especially from people who’d depleted their savings figuring they’d be whisked to heaven.
Not to fear, Camping explained. May 21 was merely the spiritual Rapture. This Friday is the real deal.
Unlike this spring, we’re not seeing massive coverage of people camped out awaiting the end of the world. (Unless some of the “Occupy” protesters have worked that into their list of demands).
So, are you getting your affairs in order?

I submitted a waiver request form.... besides, we have AMG12 coming up in the summer and I really do want to attend that.

All people of faith being taken to an alternate reality and leaving Earth to the faithless, rational thinkers sounds like a great idea. I'm all for it.

These guys are all wrong, the earth will stop spinning the day I die. My problem is I can't predict exactly when that will be....

I submitted a waiver request form, but they told me I was too old, and they said if your older than 50 it really won't matter anyway, just close your eyes, and place your head firmly between your legs, and KISS YOUR ASS GOODBYE :D

What ever shall I wear for this event??

I saw Blondie perform "Rapture" live in person a couple of weeks ago. It was the SECOND time I've seen "Rapture" performed live and if my story parallel's this dumb-ass's story I guess I'll get to see Blondie live again and again and again until one of us dies.
And now, a personal message to Rev. Camping: That voice in your head is not God.

I was wondering the same thing. Just wish I knew where I was heading so I could dress accordingly.

After meeting you in Seattle -- I'd say -- an asbestos suit (I may have another one you could use)!! ;) ;D

I'm going to dress like I'm going to the White Party cause I'm an angel .

I can see someone being 'crazy' enough to dream this up; what I can't see is why anyone is crazy enough to be a "follower" of this person.... >:(
On a side note, I had the wildest dream last night; very disturbing. It was raining fire (and brimstone, I guess, who the hell knows what that looks like?) and I was in a cemetery....the fires were all around, and falling from the sky.... and I NEVER dream shit like this. It is October, and I've been watching some scary movies lately, but nothing with anything like this in it....also, I recently re-started Neurontin for my feet, so that may be the source of my weird dreaming.....
In the grand scheme of things, I guess I'm as ready as the next person for whatever comes...

It's post Labor Day, do not wear white.... So tacky if ya do.

;D After meeting me in person, you should have realized I wouldn't get this... ;) I thought about this numerous times and it finally "clicked" this morning. Guess my cognition is getting better.
I refuse to follow any false prophet who isn't a total hotty.

Cool where was that? Were they good?
-
maybe I didn't get the correct concep't of the 'Rapture'...
I mean...
Gadhafi is gone and I'm still here.... ???
-
Perhaps its Rupture not Rapture day that is looming.
-
I wearing my birthday suit to the rapture, I came into this world naked and ashamed, I might as well go out that way :D
-
We got paid today at work. On the way home I bought 4 honeybuns and 3 Diet Cokes--oh joy!
I was going to work tomorrow. Shall I call in sick, lay back and eat the rest of my honeybuns and drink diet Coke?
:D

it depends. If you plan to leave in the Rapture, you won't be doing either of those things. LOL However if you're sticking around, do you think your boss will be Raptured? If so, then take the day off. ;)
-
Tomorrow? DAMN! They just today started the McRib promotion at McDonalds (for a limited time only), and now everything is going to go up in smoke tomorrow? This really sux.
Are there McRibs in heaven? oh silly me, it wouldnt be heaven if there werent McRibs there:)

Well we have a Troy Akiman Wings & Things down the street form where I live, I guess I'll be eating some nice chicken-wings naked & ashamed during the Rapture :D
-
...but.. I just lost 38 lbs.. :-\

This entire rapture thing is actually causing some concern now that Friday is drawing near. The vaporization factor is what scares me the most. POOF... the chosen few will be gone in a split second. 'Beam me up Scottie' will take on an entirely new meaning.
Can we take our pets with us? I cant leave my cat behind as the harsh Carolina winter is soon to set in.
-
I've hears the top Evenagelicalists (sp?) say that you can't have any requests...
..and only 1 carry on is allowed...

I hear everyone talking about these things... Is it anything like a BBQ pulled pork sandwhich?
I have not eaten from a McDonald's since they gave me a cheeseburger with the cheese, mustard, ketchup, and pickle all melted into the fake meat patty... that was about 15 years ago. Damn shit grossed me out and pissed me off all at the same time. Would the McRib be worth breaking a promise?
-

Dear god, no...... why would you take culinary advice from Grandma Wumpy?? Have you not read all the horrid things she puts in her mouth...... McRib -- that thing has never been near any real meat.
-
The only thing I'll say: Heaven without bacon is not heaven.

LOL You're absolutely right.. I don't know what I was thinking.
Thanks for helping me keep my promise.

That is my weakness right there. This mornings breakfast was 5 scrambled eggs, 6 slices of bacon, and big bowl of grits.
Heaven has got to be full of Newports, right guys?
-
I didn't want to take any chances, so I ate a slab of swiss cheese last night. I imagine lipids will be the last thing to worry about after today.
-
I just finished eating breakfast and it was deli.......beeeeeeeeeeeeeep!****************
-
Cool where was that? Were they good?
Moody Theatre (new Austin City Limits venue)
They were amazing! Deborah can still pull it off. Great show. Hope they don't go *poof* today!

Some people go "poof" in this forum on a daily basis! ;D

Hey, Still waiting. I don't like to leave my post but I have to go to the bathroom. Tick tock tick tock.
-
I am getting the feeling that they moved the date for this again. No fireworks, no marching bands, not even an emergency broadcast on the telly... nothing!! All those neighbors that I told to f*&^ off are still around too.
-
No rapture, no "poof", and two annoying spams bots on the forum :(
*sigh*
what a disappointing rapture day. I'll return to play on my PS3.

Hey people, dont get to comfortable! There is another "End of the World" scheduled for October 28 :o

omgosh!
I woke up and now have the answer....
'the hereafter is an exact mirrored world of the one I left behind...
I mean everything is exactly the same...O.O
-
No Rapture!
I want my cuddle blanket. waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah.
-
We now return you to your regularly scheduled program...
-
Who's in charge? I demand to see the manager!
-
:D no chicken-wings or fast food for me, and no anonymous sex, since there is no Dam Rapture :'(
-
::)
This can be Harold Camping's new theme song :

:D Ray I remember that song by Doctor Demento
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dr._Demento not sure if any of the rest of you are old enough to recall this song ;D
-
:D Ray I remember that song
I was 14 or 15 , when that song came out on 45. I think I bought it back then, from GC Murphy. I'm going to look through my old 45 collection and see if I still have it.

So I pulled into a Shell Station
They said I'd blown a seal
I said, "Fix the damn thing And leave my private life out of it, okay pal?" :D
