JCC Obsession with the end of the world: after 2012

In geometry, a torus (pl. tori) is a surface of revolution generated by revolving a circle in three dimensional space about an axis coplanar with the circle. If the axis of revolution does not touch the circle, the surface has a ring shape and is called a ring torus or simply torus if the ring shape is implicit.

SuperWatto,

Definition of a torus shape above. No need to blush. Looks like a bagel or a donut.

 

I read a report online or heard a report a couple years ago that a massive asteroid is supposed to hit Earth in 2029 or come real close to us and circle back around and come back in 2036. That was a couple years ago so I don't know the accuracy of that

 

yes that is "the apostrophe". it will arrive and possess the earth's populace.

 

Whatever happens, you just know that the Google doodle for Friday is gonna be awesome.

 

Michigan closes 33 schools in anticipation of the Mayan End of the World.

Okay overkill much?

 

Well I'd wager my old high school would still be open even if the world ended

 

Really? I've participated in seven over the last few days.

 

So would the hell that I called a middle school.

 

That must've been some middle school.

 

Without going into specific details... Yeah, it was.

 

Yeah, it's overkill, but living in Michigan, we're currently getting hit by a big snowstorm, so I wouldn't be surprised if classes get cancelled because of that.

 

nevermind.

Your friend happen to know anything about time zones?
Or does this programme apply to all time zones and, like, move with the clock?
Gotta be home for MJ.

 

If you want to use logic it sure is.

On the west side of the state they will get most of the snow. The east side not as much.

 

These people are just stupid. It's already 1:20 in Brisbane, I doubt the end is happening. Sorry nutters.

 

Oh look, it's tomorrow's paper!

 

It's going to feel weird when this is over...I mean, I remember learning about this when I was in like 5th or 6th grade, about fifteen years ago.

 

Is there a vegetarian option?

 

The Day/Night's still young. According to most disaster movies New York always feels the End of the World first when it's destroyed.

 

Unless its the 22nd we have to worry about

 

Wait until tomorrow afternoon when Joe Biden falls off the wagon and asks Barry what that shiny red button on his desk does.

 

What time zone did the Mayans live in? Central?
