Post-Rapture Ride?

I did 50 miles, starting at 7am. The fog was thick the entire ride. The mist on my glasses didn't help visibility. The brakes, despite being shoed with Kool Stop Salmons, were slow to react. Many of the roads were eerily desolate. Hundreds of slugs were strewn across several sections of roads. The little trickling creeks were rushing like foamy rapids. I thought several times that this all may portend The End.
Alas, I made it home.

We saw Mennonites on our ride today. If they didn't get raptured nobody did.

Where does it say that their whole body gets taken up to heaven and not just their souls? Maybe an earthly shell/body is left behind that is just running on autopiliot? With some of the ultra-religious folks I know it would be hard to tell if they were on auto-pilot or the lights were still on inside.

AND, there was a group of them (3) walking along the road all listening to the same I-Pod. They looked like they were having a good time as well

After the rapture I usually just want to cuddle up.
In other news it would appear that the recently deceased Macho Man Randy Savage is the reason the rapture did not come to pass.
