: : : : Hello...It's January 1, 2000, and I'm still alive, and my phone still works, and my computer still works, and my lights are still on (?), and the food that I didn't buy is still in the grocery store, and an airplane didn't crash into my house, and I wasn't attacked by a terrorist, and my car still drives, and I think I still have money in my bank account, and my debts haven't been wiped out :(
: : : : Did I alone survive this millennial madness?
: : : Hey!
: : : What's this January 1, 19100 business? I thought the Y2K glitch was under control? At least my computer didn't explode, and my house didn't fall down, and my dog didn't bite me, and your dog didn't bite me, and my grandmother's dog didn't bite your grandmother's dog, and... Oh, GUESS WHAT THE NEW YEAR FAERIE DID THIS MORNING 8)!!!
: : * * * * *
: : Took Alan Cowart's motorcycle away - FINALLY? In that case the new year faerie would be none other than the mysterious Alex Wilbourne. Christ didn't return, but Alex did.
: : I TOLD YOU SO!
: : NO ARMAGEDDON OR TRIBULATION!
: : NO MASS RIOTING OR RAPTURE OR CESSATION OF TRASH PICKUP!
: : OR FLEEING TO THE MOUNTAINS WHERE WE STORED UP TONS OF CANNED FOOD (uh, not).
: : :-)))))
: : (really happy guy)
: : My sincere sympathies go out to the thousands of the chosen who were waiting on the mountain tops in white sheets for the rapture (who are now huddled in their remote cave dwellings in profound confusion). Hope you all sold your houses and cars and businesses for good prices and kept a little of the money somewhere.
: : I hope the sensationalist authors and moviemakers who capitalized on this paranoid delusion NEVER sell another book or movie again. But knowing how gullible Christians are, they've probably begun great careers that will span many new imagined disasters and sell millions more books of prophetic crap.
: : But on another note, this January 19100 date thing is pretty lame. At least the message board works, though. I'll get it fixed as soon as possible. My lame webhost was completely down 3 days - until today! Obviously they still have a few date issues to work out.
: : Perhaps when everyone finally works out the date anomalies, THEN the Great Tribulation will begin.
: : :-)
: the only problem now is that I have to work on Sundays.
WHAT A DRAG. Now I'll rarely see you... :-(
We need to get together sometime...
I can drive... ;-)
