Does anyone know what time the world is to end on Saturday?  If it's early enough it will free me from running a bunch of errands that day.

I'm hoping it's on your Saturday and my Sunday.  We're having dinner with friends on Saturday night and I would hate to miss out.

I'm going to try make it to 4:30 pm mass on Saturday to get one last...they guy predicting this lives out in California and claims the ****'s gonna hit the fan around 6 pm so I think I've got a chance to plead my case.

Will an hour and a half be enough time?

Sorry, Oz.

New Zealand is first
Saturday, said Camping, "will start like any other day. There's no reason to behave or act differently."

New Zealanders will be the first to know, Camping said. At 6 p.m. their time - 11 p.m. Friday in the Bay Area - a great earthquake will shake the island asunder, triggering an apocalypse that rolls relentlessly our way.

"It will continue across the Earth at such a rate," Camping said, "every Richter scale in the world and every news organization in the world will have no doubt - Judgment Day is here."

It will reach San Francisco around 6 p.m. PDT. The saved Christian souls will ascend to heaven, including those dead and buried. All others will remain as the Earth falls into fiery chaos.

New Zealand will be shattered with earth quakes?  So it's not all bad news then.

It is good to know, however, that Jesus anticipated an arbitrarily set international date line established over 1600 years after his death, though.  I mean how embarrassing would the end of the world been if the Brits had put the date line in the Atlantic?  Either New Zealand would need to start it's destruction on Friday or the heathens of California would have held out until Sunday.  The sort of elegant timing we see with the current date line location only lends credibility to the prediction, no?

I thought I'd share this.  Brian is a former teammate of mine at SJU and a real stand-up guy.  He was a great defensive lineman for the Johnnies in the late 90's-2000.  I am sure any prayers and/or dontations sent their way would be well appreciated.

Four year old Axel Zirbes, son of Brian and Justine Rubendall Zirbes from the CSB/SJU class of 2001, is battling Leukemia, and their CSB/SJU friends are organizing a benefit on Sunday, June 12 from 12-6pm at the Medina Ballroom in Medina, MN.

Macho Man

Macho Man Randy Savage - he was the man. Who hasn't impersonated the "OH YEAH!"

RIP

Go Trine!!!

PFFFFT.  Let me be the first to raise my hand. Sorry TH, Duff and others, but while I'll concede that Macho and the others may be, or have been, great athletes (it wasn't always so), I wouldn't watch "pro" wraslin' while doing my laundry.

Agreed....I wouldn't watch pro "wraslin" while doing your laundry either.  On a related note I highly recommend the film "The Wrestler."  In addition to it being a very good movie Marisa Tomei goes topless once or twice.

It's 9:40 pm Saturday 05/21/2011 and I'm still here. And as I look out the window .... so is the world.

Yeah, me, too.  Maybe we got lucky and only they only took Tommies this time around.

I was doing some research on MIAC football and came across the St John VS St Thomas game, and it just looked like an awesome atmosphere. I brought this up over on the MIAA board and asked if anyone had been to anything similar at the D3 level.

No one could relate to that large a crowd but we all agreed that it would be sweet to be apart of something like that. So, my question is, how sweet was that game atmosphere to those of you who were there in person? How was the tailgating, hype, ect?

Go Trine!!!
