Just in case you didn't know. And I have absolutely nothing to wear. The recent disrupted London based terrorist plot seems to fit suspiciously well as far as timing is concerned or it may have all been a coincidence. The long awaited 'other shoe' has not yet dropped, but I have to admit the Dark Lords of the Shia have been making me nervous lately with their veiled threats and mutterings and the other brand of militant Islam represented by the Al Qaeda always hates to be left out as well. One never knows for sure what's going to happen and when it comes to crackpots and murderous fanatics, the crystal ball is hazy at best.
There has been a lot of speculation throughout the internet but this Infidel may be a Sage but is a hesitant prophet. Could there be something be brewing? Absolutely. Will a world war break out on Tuesday? I doubt it. But I'll top of the gas tanks just in case. More here: Opinion Journal's August 22 Does Iran have something in store? . A couple of large FReeRepublic posts here, here and here. And FrontPageMagazine's Iran's Day of Terror?, and NewsMax's Iran Hints at Aug. 22 Doomsday for Israel.
"In Islam, as in Judaism and Christianity," the professor writes, "there are certain beliefs concerning the cosmic struggle at the end of time - Gog and Magog, anti-Christ, Armageddon, and for Shiite Muslims, the long-awaited return of the Hidden Imam, ending in the final victory of the forces of good over evil, however these may be defined.
"Mr Ahmadinejad [the Iranian president] and his followers clearly believe that this time is now, and that the terminal struggle has already begun and is indeed well advanced. It may even have a date, indicated by several references by the Iranian president to giving his final answer to the US about nuclear development by August 22. This was at first reported as 'by the end of August', but Mr Ahmadinejad's statement was more precise."
Disagree. We're being funny on purpose. It's like Rocky Horror. ;)
All it does is show that we have no fear and a strong sense of humor. If the world does end, we'll leave smiling. If it doesn't....
Well, it's just another fun day in Freeperland!
Yeah,
what you said.
BRENDA LEE lyrics - "The End Of The World" |
www.OldieLyrics.com |
(A.Kent - S.Dee) Why does the sun go shining Why does the sea rush to shore Don't they know it's the end of the world 'Cause you don't love me any more Why do the birds go on singing Why do the stars glow above Don't they know it's the end of the world It ended when I lost your love I wake up in the morning and I wonder Why everything's the same as it was I can't understand, no, I can't understand How life goes on the way it does. Why does my heart go on beating Why do these eyes of mine cry Don't they know it's the end of the world It ended when you said goodbye Why does my heart go on beating Why do these eyes of mine cry Don't they know it's the end of the world It ended when you said goodbye, goodbye |
Its funny alright. That is why it should be in "humor", not Breaking News. :-)
It's easier to run in mules, I think..............
End of the world live thread!
Bring music, bay crabs, popcorn, beer.....
"That's great, it starts with an earthquake - birds and snakes and aeroplanes..."
This will be a very long thread or very short. No leaks from the NYT is a good sign.
What is there to ridicule? The fact that this thread was obviously meant to be humorous?
Liberals could use a laugh every now and then.
L'Chaim!
.....catch an early shower......
Why bother? it's the end of the world.
I do believe you mean "Hear hear":
Is the parliamentary shout "Hear, hear," "Here, here," both, or neither?'As a parliamentary cheer, hear him, hear him! is first recorded in the late seventeenth century and continued into the nineteenth; the reduction to hear! or hear, hear! occurred by the late eighteenth century. However, the use of the verb hear as an imperative meaning 'listen!' is older: a notable example is the parliamentary-sounding "Then cried a wise woman out of the city, Hear, hear" (King James Bible, 2 Samuel xx 16). '
I may have to clip that one! That is funny.
Thanks.
Thank you....
