So....
Jesus is coming, and he's gonna:
- assess every human being's worthiness for "reward"
- reward those who are deemed worthy
- leave everyone else with nothing
- do all of this in one day
Once a Year, Santa Claus:
- assesses every human being's worthiness for "reward"
- rewards those who are deemed worthy
- leaves everyone else with nothing
- does all of this in one day
Coincidence?

Naked is all good. Specially if everyone is naked.
What am I even giving a hoot about? It's been established that I was not selected. Ed McMahon has been delivering the 'no's personally

I saw Boxing Helena. That was downright stupid. Monty Python did it so much better.

For the past 3 days I looked at the title of this thread and had no idea what Zaph was talking about. Now I'm worried, finally reading it.
2.5 hrs to midnight, Mountain Time.
Should call my relatives in Europe. Rapture already under way there.

I guess it is supposed to be a "rolling rapture" so it'll hit your locality at around 6pm local time depending on where you live in your time zone (apparently God doesn't do time zones and uses dead-reckoning "high-noon" time but still has the grace to start at Greenwich and work his way around. I figure I'll keep an eye on the news at around noon and by the time it gets to +6 GMT here in Chicago I can have time to convert to all chirstiany goodness. Take me that long to scrub off all the bloody pentacles and candle wax from the floor...

I'm actually going to park my happy self outside the home of my long-time enemies' house (long, loong story) and shout blasphemies from half 'til Rapture to half past Rapture. I don't expect to make any friends doing this, and probably won't make my point. It might make me feel smug for an hour, though, and that's not to be sneezed at.

Has it happened?? Please give a few updates; here in Europe we are nothing but devil-worshipping, gay-loving, evolution-believeing communists, so we are bound not to notice.
