So, there is a lot of stuff going on about the end of the world. It is just a couple days away and this morning I heard one of the local radio stations is sponsoring an end of the world party.
I'm going to have a party with some nice steaks and a cake. Not because it is the end of the world though. It also happens to be my dad's birthday. A friend of mine is supposed to have a kid. Actually two different friends are scheduled for c-sections on Friday.
So those are my end of the world plans, anyone else doing something fun before the sun blows up or whatever is supposed to happen?
December 19, 2012 at 9:31 am #6172DerekMemberI'm going to do the same thing I do everyday during the week before I go to work. Hang out on the webmaster forum I'm a mod of, maybe write a blog post or send my followers a happy holidays message and go to work.
That's my plan at least, it might change if it suddenly get's really warm in my house. lol

No end of the world plans for me - sadly, I'll be at work (who doesn't want to be surrounded by colleagues rather than family for the end of the world, right?)
Remember all the trepidation with Y2K? I remember needing to be in the office early on New Year's Eve, because by that time, it would have gone past midnight in Sydney, Australia, and we would know whether all the computers were going to melt down by then. It's the same issue here - is the world going to end at the beginning of Friday, or the end?

I'm glad I'm not the one one who does that! The first thing I do each morning is check this board for spam, get ready for work, and then come back on here to answer a few posts, before heading to the office.
December 19, 2012 at 9:38 am #6177nickthegeekMemberGood point, it could actually be the end of the world tomorrow in the US since it will already be the 21st on the other side of the date line. That is why my dad is saying we need to give him cake tomorrow. I think he may just be trying to get 2 cakes though. He has a pretty monster sweet tooth.
December 19, 2012 at 1:26 pm #6231willyrParticipantNo problem then... Β the end of the world will happens in Australia first, and that'll give us time to open the bottle of champers and hoist one to a good run... or will it? Β π

December 19, 2012 at 2:03 pm #6235AnitaKeymasterLOL, you guys are funny! What a nice forum Nick! I hadn't thought about anything special to do, but I'll go buy a Birthday Cake and celebrate your dad's birthday. I used to buy them all the time when my Mom was living. They knew me in the bakery. One day the lady said, "You buy a bunch of birthday cakes, you must have a lot of birthdays in your family." I said, "Nope, but it's always somebody's birthday somewhere!" So, I'll get a cake!

December 20, 2012 at 11:31 am #6440nickthegeekMemberSo I have a friend in Australia. It is the 21st there so I sent a message on Skype asking if the world ended yet. Skype shows she is online but she hasn't replied so I can only assume that she is too busy trying to survive the total destruction of life by Mayan gods, meteors, Sun flares, earthquakes and who knows what else.
December 20, 2012 at 11:33 am #6444AnitaKeymasterLMBO, she's at Friday's celebrating!

December 20, 2012 at 11:50 am #6450SusanModeratorIt's early yet - it's only 4:45am on the east coast of Australia - according to the Sydney Morning Herald, the world will end at 10:11pm eastern (Australian) time - that's about 17 hours from now, so there's still time...
In the words of Rockhound from "Armageddon":
Guess what guys, it's time to embrace the horror! Look, we've got front row tickets to the end of the earth!
