End of the world?

[peach]

Anyone hear if the end of the world has started at the international date line? Could it be that Harold Camping is wrong???? (again)

Maybe I'll know tomorrow if my neighbors are suddenly gone.

Let us know ASAP; if it's happening, I'll start spending recklessly!

thanks

I'm with you!

We need a head count here, after all, Camping predicted that Jesus would only take 3% of the chosen few.

I got up at 5:00 a.m. this Saturday morning to see if anyone was missing, guess I better start calling all friends and see if any made the 3% cut. Anyway, we are still here but that was to be expected.

Now that Harold Camping's apocalypse didn't work out, onward and upward to Al Gore's apocalypse, how are the snows on Kilimanjaro doing?

Do you have any current pictures?

Well Mark, you show us images from 1993 and 2000, that includes 1998 the hottest year on record, now in 2011 there is so much snow that they've had to turn campers back, on balance I'd buy into Harold Camping's religious theories before I would Al Gore's. At least Harold Camping, a CE, was a very successful commercial building contractor before he sold his company to pursue his religious dogmatism, my long-time CPA's brother bought the Camping Construction from Harold Camping, and I met Camping a couple of times when going in to see my CPA. When Camping leased his offices and warehouse to my friend he partitioned off half and retained half for his Family Radio operations, what got me was he bought KEAR, the only classical music station here in the Bay Area, one morning I turned on my car radio to hear religious tripe coming out, eventually we got another classical music station here, but now that (KDFC) has been sold to USC with power so low I can't get it most times, typical incompetence of something emanating from Southern California.

Does't this mean that tomorrow is the beginning of the world also?

Surprisingly, I actually got called up today. Even more surprisingly, when I got there, brudgers was there, and he was in the middle of eating God's a$$ out, telling him he needed to take up floral arrangement or knitting, or somesuch.

I just shrugged my shoulders and told them to send me back down; municipal government would be more peaceful and rewarding.

Note: this really was meant to be humorous, not a malicious attack on my friend brudgers.

Chicago was using 1967 Ford Fairlane's in 1999? I find it amazing that any Ford could last 32 years, let alone a cop car.

History of 10 inch or greater Snow storms in Chicago

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Since snow records began in 1886 in Chicago, there have been 41 winter storms that produced 10 inches or more of snow. A 10 inch snow occurs about once every 3 years.

The longest period of time without a 10 inch snow or greater was February 12, 1981 to January 1, 1999 (almost 18 years). The earliest 10 inch snow was November 25-26, 1895 and the latest 10 inch snow was April 1-2, 1970. The most recent 10 inch snow was January 21-23, 2005.
