[ChairmanAgnostic]

1. last month. it's done.

no religious reichists are welcome.

[Freedom_from_Chains]

2. All's quite here in the midwest. n/t

[MrModerate]

3. No, but I hope those twits all . . .

Transubstantiate to godsville. Leave more room for the rest of us during tomorrow's commute.

[panader0]

5. Amen! If the dumb rapurists would just leave, we'd all have more room.

Plus, I'll bet 99% of them are repugs

[nuxvomica]

4. I don't think we've wasted enough of the Earth's resources yet

Give us time.

[badgerpup]

6. Haven't seen any floatin' bodies yet...

and I don't feel any joyfuller either.
S'pose they cancelled it due to lack of interest again?
Or maybe...

THE RAPTURE'S BEEN HACKED BY THE GODLESS PAGANS AND MUSLIMS AND ISLAMOFASCISTS!!!

[malaise]

23. Just collect some wallets with

cash for me. No plastic please -time to clean up the environment now that the polluters are floating above. :rolf: Oh Happy Day!!

[mcscajun]

7. The way I "heeeerd" it, it wasn't rapture this time, but Islamic

nuclear threat.

Public Service Announcement The Register regrets to report that the world is about to end. It seems that Iran is going to attack Israel tomorrow, 22 August, with nuclear weapons, and initiate World War III, as famous Islamic scholar Bernard Lewis explains in his recent Wall Street Journal editorial.

So, that's it then. We would like to thank our readers for their many emailed comments, flames, and death threats. We've certainly enjoyed our years of keeping you informed and entertained, but all good things must come to an end.

I just hope they get it over with before Noon EDT, as I'm supposed to go to work then.

[jumpoffdaplanet]

12. Not before the season finales of Monk/Psych

That would be such a shame to miss them.

[lady lib]

16. Good point! Don't forget Project Runway. n/t

[guinivere]

22. Damnit! I hope it doesn't mess up the new season of 'Lost'.

[mcscajun]

24. Ha!

Good points, though. I'd like to know how "The 4400", "The Sopranos", and "Big Love" turn out.

"Rome" is not a problem...we all know how the Roman Empire turned out...kinda like we're doing now.

[Erika]

8. So much for the religious zealots who Rove sought out

thinking W would bring on the rapture.

[Jeanette in FL]

9. All clear in North Florida

Dogs are sleeping comfortably, not a stir in the air.

[C_U_L8R]

10. Armageddon again???

Wasn't the rapture supposed to be a few weeks ago
when Israel invaded Lebanon? August 4th or something?

How come every time the fundies screw up one of their
"predictions" .. they get to make a new one??
Hasn't anyone realized that these same clowns
have been trying to sell the same bullshit since
the beginning of time... and they haven't been right once.

Maybe someday they'll get lucky... bah

[liberal N proud]

11. I thought it was supposed to have happened already

I was hoping to gain a new car or better.
Does this mean there is a second chance for those who missed it the first time?

[mcscajun]

25. That was the Rapture episode scheduled for 8/2 or 8/3

this is the Iranian "we're going to nuke Israel and start WWIII" episode.

Stay tuned...

[mcscajun]

26. Different Shit, Different Day.

It's the Iranian "we're going to nuke Israel and start WWIII" episode, courtesy of neocons, not fundies this time.

Stay tuned.

[lady lib]

13. It's so stormy and windy here in Phoenix right now

we just found a lounge chair in the pool.

Does that count for anything?

No sightings of airborne fundies...yet.

[tridim]

14. Well, it's worse than armageddon on the MSM

Wall-to-wall bullshit, and then some more bullshit for desert.

[TahitiNut]

15. I'm looking forward to less traffic tomorrow.

[tandot]

18. That was my first thought, too. And way less of those gas-guzzlers

[rug]

17. The Rapture is skipping France.

[TahitiNut]

20. That's only because France is "Fermé Août"

They'll catch up in September.

[tocqueville]

28. LOL

exactly

[WestSeattle2]

19. So.......when all the idiots

disappear and leave all their clothes behind, please keep your eyes out for men's Levi 501's, 32x32, no holes please. Any color is fine, but preferably black or denim.

E-mail me the location, and I'll pick 'em up.

Forever grateful,

Me

[mike_c]

21. no sign of anything different in NorCal, but we're still five hours away

...from armageddon. I'm leaving the porch light on tonight for the mother ship, just in case.

[berni_mccoy]

27. It's not quite the 22nd yet on the east coast... but I'm starting to...

turn transparent... does that mean I'm being rapturized?

[Ghost in the Machine]

29. Reporting in from East Tennessee... 10:45 pm, still the 21st.. BUT...

I just got back from town and there was no signs of life anywhere! Businesses were dark, parking lots were empty..... oh wait... I live in a hick town where they roll the sidewalks up at 6 pm... never mind, nothing to see here... keep moving along


eidted for splelign:

[mzteris]

30. I've been moving & off the net

for a while - what's up with the whole "Rapture" thing for tomorrow? I thought it was just a DU joke at first. Is there some "news source" that says the fundies are claiming 8/22 is The Rapture? (Talk about jokes . . . )

[Blackthorn]

31. I thought I saw something this morning, turned out to be a plane.

[alfredo]

32. I saw the whore of Babylon

[GeorgeGist]

33. Nope...

not enough people have died yet for Jesus to return... or so the myth goes.

[yellowcanine]

34. The day is not over yet. Keep hope alive.

[peekaloo]

35. my newspaper disappeared from my driveway this a.m.
