Today being [September 12 2006](http://www.yahweh.com/).

There is a place of safety but like their unbelief in the Sabbath, the world will not believe this message, neither will they repent of their sins of murder, fornication, or theft. You need to start training now in the ways of Yahweh.

I forgot to put the date on the bathroom mirror. Anyone want to join me in an afternoon of fornification? (murder and theft aren’t my bag, baby)

Are there any other upcoming apocalypses I have to put in my diary?

To say the World ended yesterday, it doesn’t seem much different.

Wait, it’s over with now? Done? I missed it?

Damnit. Would somebody care to remind me when the next one happens? At least give me a chance to make a reservation at Milliways.

[QUOTE=detop]  
Icouldn’t help but notice that this End of the World Patent Pending is being promoted by The House of Yahweh. Is it similar to The House of Pancakes ?  
[/QUOTE]

IHOP has better service. 😉  
PS- Who is going to buy a book on the last day of the world? Its not like UPS has sameday service, and even if it did, would you be able to read an entire book of theological doctrine in one day? (You’d do more good whipping it at one of the demons coming to steal your soul. Or at the head of the author…same difference.)

You know, I got the same brochure from the House of Yahweh a couple of weeks ago. They had a toll-free number that I was meaning to call on the 13th to say, “What gives?” But of course I forgot. Oh, well, it’s not the end of the world.

Happy birthday, **What Exit?** Of course, I’m late for that, too. Your card is, uh… in the mail.

Don’t worry, they’re currently working on the plans for the next one and will be sending out memos when they firm up the date. And this time they’ll make sure to keep the fuses dry.
