    According to Harold, the rapture will occur at 6 pm in each respective time zone around the world. Harold says: ?The rapture will start in the Pacific Rim at around the 6 p.m. local time hour, in each time zone.?

    Convenient. Like Santa!
    If you will it, dude, it is no dream.

    I was convinced Zombies had rose from the dead this morning, until I realized it was some of my white trash neighbors. I was ready to Double-Tap their asses!

    Happy Rapture Day to all! The weather is perfect for Harley Riding!

    I think I've been ripped off on this rapture thingy. I prayed real hard for a short list of people to be included, and it doesn't appear to be happening! I think we ought to class-action that idiots a$$ for damages!

    Well it's past 6PM in most parts of the world on the other side of the International Date Line....since Mr. Camping set a 6PM rolling deadline starting at Pacific Standard Time...I guess he didn't take into consideration where MOST of the world's population actually lives! lol

    Busted!

    My theory is that old "Harold" and company transferred 70 million dollars in funds to South America, chartered a Saturday morning flight out of the U.S.A. and are now living comfortably on a nice BIG property on the outskirts of Sao Paolo! They've all changed their names and in this way, yeah, they were raptured and the rest of us were left behind! At least they wouldn't be available for comment! Sounds like a plan to me?

    Greetings from Heaven to all you hell-bound heathens.

    As I sit here in heaven reading CP I have a little, but not much, sympathy for those of you left behind. You should have been better people, and bought better cables for your gear. Now you are going to pay for that oversight with eternal damnation.

    However, I have to admit that the Lord does work in mysterious ways. For example, heaven is just like my living room, and neighborhood!! I can’t understand how my idiot neighbor made it to heaven. Oh well, it’s not my call.

    Anyway, have fun in your remaining time. I am waiting for my 70 virgins to come knocking on my door.

    Well...I was sitting by the pool drinking a cool one trying to figure which would be the most appropriate CD to play at 6 PM EDST over the outdoor speakers. It was between Mozart - "Requiem Mass in D minor" and Jimmy Buffett - "Party at the End of the World". Went with Mozart. Buffett is playing now and this margarita is tasting exceptionally good.

    Actually it is a minor event...and they are not very worried about it. It also erupted in 1993, 1996, 1998 and 2004...and the world didn't cease to exist then...and it won't now.

    Well, I'm still here. Guess I'm goin' to hell. Then again, I'm not seeing all this predicted catastrophe and I certainly don't feel tortured. Got a bit of a sunburn but that's what I get for puttering around on the tractor all day. Lawn looks great! Just wish I had time to wash the cars.

    Rapture? Maybe. Didn't see too many people floatin' skyward and nobody I know blinked out or anything. Maybe ALL of NJ isn't pure enough to be ascended? Maybe not. Afterall, Jesus did say we wouldn't know when it happens that's for Him to know, not us.

    There was a nasty set of storm clouds rollin' through right around 6pm though. It rained it's **** off for about 20 minutes. Then the skies parted right in front of the sun and only the sun. All these sunbeams bursting through charcoal black skies. Shinin' on me on my front porch with a rainbow so bright and vivid I could almost touch it!

    If that was the rapture, I'll have more of those please! That was gorgeous! Stupid cellphone camera didn't do it justice at all.

    Imma go to the diner. I need a Jersey Breakfast and a chocolate milkshake.

    I believe Face has revealed the answer to as why this didn't go down as previously scheduled. Good work !

    Think not ? I say, " OOOOH YEAH ! "

    <iframe width="560" height="349" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/W02gTal4MM4?rel=0&quot; frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>

    "Cause of the crash is yet unknown" ?
    Yeah. Right.

    It's either that, or the Big Guy Upstairs came to the realization that there was a possiblity that doing a Rapture on this date may have a possibility of messing up Mrs. Grand's birthday.
    One certainly doesn't mess with Mr. Grand, and even Heaven knows you don't mess with Mrs. Grand.

    So, thank you Randy Savage and/or thank you, Mr. Grand.

    I shall now be Raptured to the "Ignore List". :smile:
