Well it seems another week has come and gone (and pretty quickly too) and if you believe what some folks are saying this could be the last one we are going to have to worry about. Yep, there is a group of people out there who are predicting tomorrow is TEOTWAWKI. Heck, I think TEOTWAWKI has already begun. Most folks just haven't figured it out yet. The times they are a'changin' to be sure.
BUT, back to the May 21,2011. Unless you have been living under a rock or something you have probably already heard that these folks believe that tomorrow at 6:00PM that the "Rapture" will occur. Now I'm not really sure if that is Central, Pacific or Eastern time... but my guess is that it's not really going to be an issue. Hmmm.... Maybe I should finish up that ice cream in the freezer? Oh and while I'm at it I have a few Snickerdoodles left....I'd really hate for all that to go to waste.
It looks like this will be the Summer of the Cicada's. After a 13 year sleep, they are back. Cicada's are some scary looking bugs. Creepy! I remember the last time they all came out of hiding. That was one LOUD summer. The sound was almost deafening at times. I could still hear them in the house with the air conditioner on and the TV cranked up as high as I could stand it and could still hear them "singing". They were THAT loud. When I was a kid I remember finding their shells on the trees and using them for decorations on my shirt! LOL It used to freak my mom out! Oh, wait... that was when I would sneak up behind her and put them in her hair!!
Are you ready for the Zombie Apocalypse? The Center for Disease Control put out a Zombie Warning this week. And you thought my tin foil hat was on a bit too tight? I TOLD you there were Zombies!
A second town in Vermont passed a Food Sovereignty Bill this month. "Food sovereignty is expressed as the “right to save seed, grow, process, consume and exchange food and farm products.” I think we should all follow their lead all across America. Our right to choose what we eat and how it is processed (or unprocessed) should be our decision. If I want to drink raw milk who am I harming? And who is the government to dictate what I can and cannot feed myself and my family? Apparently the FDA doesn't agree. Just ask the Amish folks at the Rainbow Acres Farm.
Do you remember Government class? You know..... Back when they taught Government as a core class. You know, one of those classes you had to take to graduate? We studied this...
"The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no Warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by Oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized."
Sound familiar? If not, let me remind you that is our 4th Amendment. Remember the Constitution? Apparently the Supreme Court doesn't. In Indiana this week the Supreme Court ruled that if a police officer wants to come into your house for ANY reason you now have NO RIGHT to resist or refuse entry into your home. It doesn't matter if there is a warrant or not. They don't even need probable cause.
Our POTUS has apparently turned his back on Israel this week. Say what you will, nothing good can or will come of this. It just might even be the thing that leads us into WWIII. Who knows.....
I think I'm going to take the next couple of days off. If tomorrow does happen to be the last day I think I'm going to go on and finish up that bit of chocolate cake. I wouldn't want to leave it for the Zombie's.
~~~~ Hey ... I'm Just Sayin' ... ~~~~
Apperently these folks think it will happen at 6 PM local time Saturday the 21 not acounting for the rotation of the earth or timezones. Which makes them wrong already if you don't count that missive in the Gospels that no one will know the time.
ReplyDeleteYou will notice the don't cover firearms at all and any one who has fought zombies in a video game knows a 12 Gauge pump (SPAS 12) a Desert Eagle(.357 mag) is best or a chain gun. :) Machete, tomahawk and or crowbar for the melee weapon. So pick your BOOM Stick wisely.
WE know the PTB's are getting desperate and now it shows. WE are going to end up with preforated police and or citizens. But the PTB's are safe. And that is is really what they are concerned about.
Hey, if you remember it says in the Book, that no man, or angel or Son of God knows when the second coming will happen. anyone that professes to put a date on it is a false prophet, and we are to have nothing to do with them.
ReplyDeleteRight now I would be more worried about the erosion of your rights as a citizen than I would be about the rapture.
Don't be too quick to eat that cake and ice cream. On the other hand, it could be seized by a government agent as being subversive. In fact, he wouldn't need a warrant to come in and eat it! Wake up America!!
Just look at my icon.
ReplyDeleteI have my cane. I am prepared. :wink:
Or.. the atheist that set up a pet care service to handle the family pets post rapture. Pre-pay.. no refunds. Hilarious & clever in a "smarmy bastage" kinda way.
ReplyDeleteWondering what new cicada recipes will pop up this year. Really hope my chicks will be big enough to snack on them!
A neighbor decided to dig into her ice cream this evening just in case, too, lol! Fortunately, she was not quite up to the task, so she shared with us! I had never tried a Magnum Double Chocolate Ice Cream Bar, but now I have. Don't try them. They are TOO good! If I could afford 'em, I would get addicted soooo fast!
ReplyDeleteHi scifi, just posted my tobacco plant pics if you want to look.

According to their various websites - today was only the end of the world for the rightous ones; the rest of us will have to wait til October 21st, so we can eat icecream until the 20th :-)
ReplyDeleteVery good post today. Keep up the good work.
ReplyDeleteYep, the loss of rights and freedoms is what I call a doom's day.
I'm not worried. I have my Zombie Hunting Permit posted at work.
