According to some fundamentalist Christians, the "Rapture" will happen this weekend.
If you have a goody two shoes Christian friends, and you don't think you will get past the bouncers at The Pearly Gate, why not make your eternal damnation on a Godless Earth more comfortable?
Get them to fill in this form so their worldy goods don't go to waste.

Is that today?
So far so good!
If I survive the day, then tomorrow's a good day in Denmark to say thank you to the big boss, as it's the "Great Praying Day" and a bank holiday
I suppose it's an All Saints Day, as it replaced many individual saints days. This evening it's traditional to eat "Hveder" which are a type of bread roll with cardamom in them (my husband baked some yesterday, so I'll have some to take into work).

It's supposed to be happening tomorrow, the 21st. I wonder how many people will be feeling silly on Sunday?
Just because you're Paranoid, it doesn't mean to say they're not out to get you.

Still here so either Jesus is late or he is not coming at all.

Oh well..another false call.
But they did have a minor earthquake in Los Angeles this morning.
I bet that made a few people think, "Oh hell...maybe my looney Bible Bashing friends/relatives were right!!!"

Probably hoping, due to his age, that he dies before it happens, that way he won't be here when he looks an idiot, yet again.
