The point is not to have a hangover at the end of the world, its to be drunk at the end of the world. The idea is if that if we're all going to burn in the fires of a thousand hells, you might as well try to numb your mind beforehand.

what'd be the point of that? You'd be all trippy when it comes anyways! =P If it does, that is.

I'll have to ponder how to profit from everybody waking up on 12/22/12 and realizing that the world isn't going to end.

Which reminds me... when exactly is it supposed to happen? For some reason I've got December 20th, 2012. Tis a pattern, see? 12/20/2012. But come to think of it, it might be the 21st...

If you can find people who really believe the world will end at a specific date they probably would be anxious to sell their valuable holdings for a pittance since any money coming in would encourage them to enjoy whatever time is left with whatever funds they can quickly lay their hands on. They should be a pushover for sales at a loss. (Unless pangs of conscience prevent you from scamming gullible people.)

Oh dear.

..... any way there seems to be many things predicted on that day.. should be fun

Goats originated in Eurasia and didn't make it to Mayaland until the Conquistadors arrived ... but thanks for playing!

It's no more likely to be 21/12/12 than it is to be tomorrow, or 50 years from now.

Utter and complete balderdash and tommyrot. Calendars are artifacts and do not control the destiny of the physical cosmos.

I highly doubt it's going to happen. 12/21/2012 is just the day that the Mayan Long Count calendar ends, but there's nothing in the remaining scripts that say anything about it. We don't really have a prophecy because the Spanish burned most of the texts, leaving only 3. All we have is that date, and because of the accuracy of Mayan's predictions concerning astronomy, there have been assumptions that there is nothing more after that day, and the world is going to end. However, all of that is just speculation, and there's not a lot of evidence or signs supporting this.

However, it will be interesting to watch what the world does on this day.

Well Monty, if they want, they can always make human sacrifices, but if they're throwing a party, killing a goat and then eating it would be a tad more humane, no? ^^;

I once ate some goat at a cajun BBQ. I thought it was pretty good until I got all freaked out because I found something I thought was a goat hair. Turns out it was one of the bristles off of the basting brush.

Bwhahaha :p Besides, hair is protein is it not? <.<

I dunno...just keep it off my peice of goat.

An other way would be lending such people money with very high interest, repayable at Monday. 02 Jan. 2013.
