#2 You know the "end is NOT near" when a Kroger coin machine charges .09% to cash in your small change jar, but freely accepts EBT cards at no additional charge for prime rib, fresh produce, and Deli treats.

#3 Well, it's after midnight. Anything happen?
Did the world end and I didn't get the e-mail?
Did supporters of the child rapist off themselves?

#7 This rebooted world seems to have the same conditions & cast of characters as the previous one had. This brave new world is, however, deeper in debt than the previous one was.

#10 D *** NG IT, the World can't end tonite - I haven't exploited McDonald's MCRIB Promo yet! I DEMAND A RECOUNT!
> MASSIVE SOLAR FLARE - the Sun. EARLY/SUDDEN
"RED GIANT" PHASE = SOLAR EXPANSION???
> GLOBAL VOLCANISM = HIMALAYAN SUPER-CALDERA - mostly the Sun [again].
> COMET APOPHIS + GUAM, EARTH-VISIBLE MOON EXPLOSIONS = lack of effec OWG Space Defense because there is reliable OWG because US-World Govts-Perts are still arguing about everything, i.e. "who pays". The International Community mightiest achievemnet is "agreeing to "disagee" hence little or nothing gets done. See also above for SOLAR FLARE/STORM.
> PLANET X/NIBIRU - challenge to the "status quo" of prevailing theories, includ Archaeo-Astronomy, as per our Planetary System.
> 1990'S COMET SHOEMAKER-LEVY 9 BREAKUP + JUPITER IMPACT - did Comet SL9 impact displace surface debris = chunks from Jupiter's surface into its high atmosphere iff not space orbit such as to threaten Earth??? AFAIK, NASA-JPL + UNIVERSITY STAR/SPACE BOYZ HAVE N-O-T ANSWERED THE QUESTION.
> RANDOM/MISCELLANEOUS INCOMING SPACE ROCKS. See for OWG + COMET APOPHIS.
CONSIDERING HOW MANY TIMES NASA + PERTS CALCULATIONS HAVE BEEN WAY OFF, AFAIC THE ABOVE SUBJECT MATTER OR QUESTIONS ARE QUITE VALID.
* "KELLY'S HEROES" > GENERAL CARROL O'CONNOR = "YOU GENTLEMAN ARE THE ONES THATS SUPPOSED TO BE MANAGING/FIGHTING THIS WAR - HELL, YOU DON'T DON'T EVEN KNOW WHERE IT IS! WELL I'LL TELL YOU WHERE IT IS - ITS 30 MILES BEYOND WHERE YOU THOUGHT IT WAS ... ... COME ON, NOW, LETS GET THIS ARMY OF MINE [OWG Space Govt] BACK IN THE WAR"!!
