World to end on August 22nd
8-13-2006 The Infidel Sage

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."
This thread makes me think of the live thread during "24"...
Viewer Discretion advised...
If that's a condition for ending the world, grab a trainload of Snickers because we're not going anywhere for a while ;-)
But we can be tranquil and thankful and proud
'Cause man's been endowed with a mushroom shaped cloud.
And we can be certain that some lovely day,
Someone will set the bomb off...
And we will all be blown away!

I am going to the gym, nothing is going to happen.
Dunno about chips, but can't have a party without the beer :-)
If it does, you'll have a buff corpse.
I bow before the master.
Should have known.......the first thing that goes is the short term memory, and I forget what the rest of that s*** was....
Interesting. Thanks.
U2 Until the End of the World
Havent seen you in quite a while
I was down the hold, just passing time
Last time we met was a low-lit room
We were as close together as bride and groom
We ate the food, we drank the wine
Everybody having a good time
Except you
You were talking about the end of the world
I took the money, I spiked your drink
You miss too much these days if you stop to think
You led me on with those innocent eyes
And you know I love the element of surprise
In the garden I was playing the tart
I kissed your lips and broke your heart
You, you were acting like it was the end of the world
In my dream I was drowning my sorrows
But my sorrows they learned to swim
Surrounding me, going down on me
Spilling over the brim
In waves of regret, waves of joy
I reached out for the one I tried to destroy
You, you said youd wait until the end of the world.

You come from nothing, you're going back to nothing. What have you lost? Nothing.
So we have a few more years left. :-)
We are at the new moon, fox news alerts???
Aw, what the heck, just wear your birthday suit. You're going 'out' in it anyway. ;o)
yeah, i get it. i just objected to it being put in "Breaking News" category, thats all. then, tons of people piled on me, a few I am sure who had not even read my initial post :-)
(Well, you had to ask.)
Back in the day, new moon cycles were sometimes referred to as "Bombers' Moon" because of the dark sky.
Tomahawks kinda made that deal obsolete, though.
Don't worry about it.........
We're all still friends, even after the occasional food fight.
I think several groups/people sang it. Who's Skeeter Davis?
Bong!
This is a Fox News Alert.
9 out of 10 Freepers surveyed did not want that visual.
Stay tuned to Fox News for film at 11.
This has been a Fox News Alert.
