I just watched the post-apocalyptilc ‘children of men’ with theo wearing his london olympics 2012 pullover.
Since the world will end on a Thursday, and the date in question isn’t, I must conclude the world will continue.
Hey, that’s my brother’s 43rd birthday! I wonder if that has anything to do with it…
