Once again the End of the World is Nigh. It’s Near. It’s almost practically HERE.
Batten down your hatches one more time and prepare for (yet another) Doomsday.
It’s due on 21 October!
So says Harold Camping and he should know. He’s pretty good at predicting the end of the world. This will be the third date (or is it the fourth?) that he’s warned us to be ready for the horror of the End.
OK he’s got some dates wrong before but that was due to some minor mathematical problems he had when trying to divide by nine. Everyone knows that nine is tricky to deal with. Slippery and devious, probably an evil number.
I’m still feeling a bit flat after getting so worked up when I thought the world would end on 21 May this year and then …. pfffft .. nothing.
Harold, I hope for your sake that you’re right this time!
Hang on, I just remembered something. I’m going on a bus trip to see the begonias in Ballarat with a couple of ladies from the Bowls Club on the 21st. Devonshire Tea included.
Looks like I’ll have to pass this one up, Harold. Let me know when the next one is on and I’ll pencil it in.
