Repent your sins quickly, less than a dozen days to go!! Mind you I'm not sure which time zone it's in, I guess we'll be the first to go.....
Mind you it's not the first time:-

So......
if the world is going to end on December 21 will it end time zone by time zone at midnight?
What happens if you are on a jet between time zones- will you miss the end?
If you are standing exactly on the North or South Pole? When is it midnight there????  _________________ John & Cathy

With the end so close I was going to order up a few FAST bikes for some road fun.
Won't have to worry about paying for speeding tickets or repaying the bike loans. Right??
Those Mayans couldn't have counted wrong? I want to see their calculations.  _________________ John & Cathy

We U.S.ers are in double jeopardy. If the Mayans don't get us 12-21-12, politicians will push us off a cliff 1-1-13. _________________ '93 K1100LT

Hey, if this really is the end- we will miss you drikko.
But by tomorrow we will be missing ourselves too
I did delay doing the annual winter bike maintenance- just in case this is the real thing  _________________ John & Cathy

Well the Mayans didn't have leap year, so the date of their calculations actually occurred 9 months ago. This is like the sixth sense, we are all gone. _________________ 1997 K1100LT
