Eastern Standard Time?

Well, that’s a relief.

But I hope the Mayans aren’t planning to start human sacrifices again, during the next sun cycle.

First, this is disappointing. The end of the world is probably the only thing that will end democrats.

Second, I’d put a lot more faith in what this guy has to say if he had made a calendar of the next 5,000 years. Hell, I’d be impressed if he could predict a few solar eclipses.

It cannot end until the Chicago Cubs are one strike away from winning the World Series.

Brothers and sisters, we are all part of the cosmos and each one of you are stars that shine in your own firmament," he said.

There are undoubtedly some people (on this planet) Elder Miguel Angel Chiquin hasn't met. Could this be interpreted to mean ... Some folks burn bright and have a tendency to burn others maybe in the form of the fifth sun?

Time to give up the ghost of Mayan past?

"The great teachings that our ancestors have left us over the centuries, the 21st of December, we will be moving over a cosmic bridge of light and hope at the great event of our fifth sun."

I hate to tell you this, Chief, but that story will never sell in Hollywood. We need disaster, we need apocalypse, we need lots of death and mayhem if we're going to sell any tickets. That light and hope crap may work in politics but the people aren't going to pay good money to watch it.

“Instead, he maintains better era will start Dec. 21”

Well, there’s plenty of room for improvement.

The Mayans might have been good with math, but their astronomy was a little off. They didn’t have leap years in their calendar. As a result, by the Mayan Calendar, 2012 ended in July of 2011.

In other words, the Mayan “end of the world” came and went without a squeak.

But we, as Mayans, don't know anything about that," Elder Miguel Angel Chiquin said speaking through a Spanish translator Monday night at Colorado State University-Pueblo.

They probably couldn't find a Mayan translator.

Well, hell.......

MRE’s on me everybody.
