As many of you have been anticipating for the past few months (years, decades, centuries), the world is set to expire on May 21. Which is perfect timing, because my company just announced that’s this is going to be the day summer hours (half-day Fridays) and the summer dress code will kick in. Can I catch a freakin’ break?
So obviously I’m not buying into this bull-oney, but I was thinking about it on my way to work this morning, and I was wondering, if the world were going to end at some point in time, why not now? If we’re just going by recent events (and the things that I consider signs of the apocalypse, like Oprah ending her show, and Arnold Schwarzenegger and Maria Shriver getting divorced), the world is pretty much braced for its demise at any moment now. Osama bin Laden is dead, it’s been raining everywhere for the past 137,000 days, and LeBron James is about to fulfill his Messiah-like prophecy of winning an NBA championship. I ask you, are these not signs???
