Happy Doomsday!

It has been a busy last few weeks. With finals done with, attending Avery and Dan's wedding, getting Michelle on the plane to Hawaii, and the end of the world planned for today, I've been busy. While it makes a good excuse for me not posting in a while, some of us are left wondering what happened-- why are we still here?

For those who don't know the back-story, Harold Camping of Family Radio predicted the second coming of Jesus to be today, May 21st. Of course there are always people telling us when our demise is going to happen, but this is different; millions of dollars have been spent to communicate the message, and some have even believed it too. Now they're still waiting, and Camping is nowhere to be found. Who is to blame for all of this? None other than the one and only Macho Man Randy Savage.

Just yesterday, May 20th, wrestler Randy Savage died in a car accident. He was a legendary superstar in the world of wrestling entertainment. Was his death, one day before the declared rapture, a coincidence? I think not. Savage was well aware of forthcoming atrocities, and gave his own life so that he could save us all. What exactly happened in the heavens above is still unknown, but is likely to be revealed in further revelation. Savage and god may have settled matters peacefully over a cup of coffee, or maybe there was a pile-driver or two. Regardless, life would not continue to go on if Macho Man Randy Savage didn't make the greatest sacrifice. If it wasn't for this much appreciated intervention, I'm sure we would have seen the fire in the sky; the evidence is clear as daylight.

Aside from the few who actually believed it, the rest of us are happily proclaiming, 'I told you so!' There's a lot for us to buy into: fake miracles, superstitions, political propaganda. It's always a good day to reconsider why we believe the things we do, whether it's things we willingly accept or choose to ignore. In one way or another we are all a part of the scam, but thanks to Randy Savage, we'll live another day to live and fight it.
