Damn! Now Raul will never get his Tony.

Anyway, I called Jeebus on my celly this morning and his spokesperson would neither confirm nor deny the veracity of this story.



Repent! Repent! Repent! Stop those dirty little doings that are screwing up your life.

God, the end of the world has been pushed back more than Spiderman's opening.

This whole thing is the brain child (and I use the word 'brain' very loosely) of Harold Camping. Camping is a batSH*T crazy old coot in Oxnard, CA who is the head of Family Radio, Inc. He's got a call-in radio show that I listen to now and again because it's such a car-wreck and it's an interesting study in paranoia and/or senilty. The man's not right, I tell ya:
Would you buy a used car from this man?

I turn 50 in March, so I would very much appreicate it that if the world is going to end sometime soon, it could do so before then.

Taz even the end of the world will not dampen the Tony Award prediction threads. The first "Predict the Tony's*" thread was posited July 3. 2010.

The thread could not be more uncanny. I just returned from my back-woodsy hometown in rural NC where I was bombarded by eschatological warnings in every home I visited. Those folks take this stuff seriously and are convinced it's curtains the minute "they" let Bob marry Ted (or Mary marry Alice) nationwide. One mixed blessing is that is that Sister Sara isn't their cup of tea, one bit. Why not? Brace yourselves...because "God" didn't call a woman to lead a nation.

I'll be in Washington DC then. I think a sign an apocalypse will come is when there is something unanimously bipartisan done without a hitch in DC.
