proselytizing in the wrong forum makes the baby jesus cry.

Thanks for your heads up though, I’ll do my best to look sharp when they call roll.

I note that our apocalyptic OP’er has only the one post.

Just our luck, not to get his five smackers _before_ he gets Raptured.

I’ve lost count. What is the number of this “End of the World” prediction? Somewhere around 5,279 ???

Gee, the End of the World isn’t what it used to be.

Wasn’t the third secret “never draw to a gut shot straight heads up”?
