After what the Bush Administration left us, that would be about 5 cents.

You would think that all the money they spend they would've bought a better excuse to invade iraq

I think that the invasion orders were a typo. I think that they meant to end the ira with an n.

We always learn far more from our own mistakes, than we will ever learn from another's advice.

Well, it happened all right, it just wasn't as bad as some people thought. There was this ball that dropped around midnight in New York, and a bridge looked it it was blowing up in Sydney and massive explosions in China and Paris. There were a few shots fired and some bombs going off around the same time, probably by people defending themselves from the zombies.
Similar things were happening all over the world last night, a bit late, but then again, no one said the Mayan calendar was accurate.  It was probably too little, too late, but then I suppose we can look for the same to happen about the same time next year and for a lot more years after that.

OK The world did not come to a destructive end as the "nitwits of media" were so desperately hoping for, and trying to force, by hyping every insane thing that was being caused by the "nitwits of media", and their "prophesies of doom".
A baktun (properly b'ak'tun, English pronunciation: /ˈbɑk ˌtun/[1], Mayan pronunciation: [ɓakʼ ˈtun]) is 20 katun cycles of the ancient Maya Long Count Calendar. It contains 144,000 days, equal to 394.26 tropical years. The Classic period of Maya civilization occurred during the 8th and 9th baktuns of the current calendrical cycle. The current baktun started on 13.0.0.0.0 — December 21, 2012
The Mayan calendar is, in fact extremely accurate with respect to celestial events. It was simply being horribly misused by a bunch of wretched fear mongers, who we laughingly refer to as "the media".
P.S. "nitwits of media" is the polite translation of @*%#&!% $)(^&! !## (%^^*$@ %^&* )(!@^%# certified morons
The frightening thing is, they almost got away with it!
The sad thing is, there were a lot of suicides, and murders, that I am sure were triggered by the fear all the hype was creating.
The hope is, maybe we'll have some peace for a bit, until the "nitwits of media" strike again!
P.P.S. Oh nit.....wiiiiiiits.....look over your shoulder,- - - - - - - I'm walking behind you  and I'm not going out to chop wood

If you find that one of your neighbours believes in an imminent apocalypse, you can offer to take his goods off his hands. If you are a good neighbour, you will give it back to him after it doesn't happen.
