Remember all the hupla over 9/9/99? They were saying that computers didn't know what to do after reaching all 9's and everything was going to shut down.

BTW - to answer your question - why, 12:12, of course...

Actually the world's supposed to end on 12/21/12 according to the Mayans.
What's gonna happen to ZR-1 values on 12/22/12?

They'll be worth nothing, of course. But if anyone wants to cash in before then I'll give them 50 bucks cash... :cheers:

I know back then on the systems I wrote code on, without patches these systems would have failed on all 9's. They didn't because lots of work was done. Most people just thought it was a fluke that nothing happened.

They could predict the end of the world but not their own world. How long have they been gone? haha

Oh and I can't wait to see how many people kill themselves on the 21.

Or how about all the concern with all the computers unable to handle the year 2000! Remember 01-01-2000? What the heck did they call that??????

Great. I don't have to pay bill for this month then.

One thing's for sure. This is the last month/day/year
alignment for a very long time
i was too young to remember 5/5/55 but
sure do remember all the others since.

The Mayan's are alive and well; they just do not have an Empire!
Our Calendar ends every year and it is the end of the world for someone!

How often do the planets align like they will on the 21st?

One of my service guys is going to be at Machu Pitchu on 12-21-12, he planned it that way. I'll let you know if he doesn't come back.

There is no planetary alignment of the planets on the 21st...

And I thought was he real significance or the 21st. So does that mean the world might not end? What am I going to do with all this canned food.

It's not the planets that align, it's the sun in line with the center of the Milky way as seen from earth. And so it goes......

Let's see. If a bullet is fired at you the front of the bullet hits you first.
The back is still a long way away in time and distance. Are you hit by the
bullet only after the back end hits? hmmmm
I suppose the end is relative to the observer. I'll be watching as all of
you end. I'll still be here :-({|=

Don't know about our values on the 22nd, but I'm trading my C-6 in for a Ferrari on the 19th. If I wake up un the 22nd, I'll take that puppy back....
Should be a fun final 3 days. Anybody want a ride???

:icon_boun oh, I'll take that test drive! Please? Which one Darin? The FXX?

:o I thought that those guys, the Myans, just might have run out of suitable stone upon which to make new calenders, no huh...?

Oh well, then maybe I'll go do the Christmas Post Card run in the rain in my ZR-1 this weekend so I'll have just one more run with Mistress. Hummm, I wonder if I should tell Mistress that it's all over after the 21st? :dontknow:

We American Natives live a very modern life and use the same Calendars and Clocks that you people use.
We live in houses not wigwams.
We drive cars and trucks.
We like to ride horses, hunt and fish.
We know how to live off the land if needed.

Like Steve says, the day ain't over yet...
However, if we do get thru the rest of the day, it looks like ZR-1 value$ are gonna stay the same. On the bright side, at least they're not falling to $0 like they would have if the Mayans were right!

Big John :-D I guess breakfast tomorrow is ON (if we get thru the rest of the day that is...)
