1. Stock up on batteries and potato chips!
Shit is about to hit the fan!

Mass death of birds, crabs, fish and trees.

3. I don't want to scare you, but about 250,000 people died yesterday around the world.
And the same number will die today!!!!!!!

Hope we don't run out of people.

8. Actually, many trees are dying.
I've got a stand of hemlock trees that has been decimated over the past few years.

9. Doomers will be the way they are and that's that.
Yes, there are days when someone tells me to "think positive", I respond "There really isn't anything that inspires positive vibes in 21st Century America". But that's a day. I just can't imagine what it's like going through life without even one day of anything good to feel about. And I think to these people, "The End" would be welcome.

11. Watched Prophets of Doom on the History Channel last night and they said it'll get much worse
so best be prepared ahead of time, I guess.

17. Well, Hades done abducted Persephone and her mom, Demeter, got pissed.
When they got Perse back it seems that Hades fooled her into eating pomegranate seeds and persuaded her to come back to him for 3 months out of every year. Demeter, who controlled the growth of all plants on the earth, vowed in revenge that for those 3 months NOTHING would grow on the earth. That's why your trees are dead!

Makes sense to me...
