Our Last Weekend On Earth?

Postby Eric Renderking Fisk » Sat May 21, 2011 1:05 pm

Here's a question inspired by "The Rapture Hysteria" Thread.

What if this was your last weekend on Earth? Where would you go and do differently?

I'd be with my boyfriend, gardening and trying to talk him into having a picnic in the woods.

Anyone who reads the bible knows in Mark 13:32 it says: But about that day or hour no one knows, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son, but only the Father. And Harold Camping doesn't even know. :D

Yep, totally understand. We have a thread about that already. The question for this thread is how would you spend your last weekend on Earth?

I'd go down to Republican Party headquarters, and see whose left.

Bye bye... I'm gonna miss em...

I would call the 800 number on the back of my credit card and when the customer service center in New Delhi answered I would point out my remaining balance and say,"Naaa Naaa!"

Same thing I do every weekend, and same thing I was doing last time the world was slated to end. Stay home, listen to music, and watch the countdown either playing with new guns or up to my wrists in grease and rust and and parts for an old one. Then probably go eat Mexican food.

But I have low expectations. :lol:

Where would I got and what would I do ???

Many different places run through my mind,,,,,but right now I am thinking, off to Spain.

Sit on the white sandy shore of the Mediterranean and listen to the waves crash. Eat crushed olives and fresh baked hard crusted bread while drinking local home made Sangria. All that with fresh roasted chicken and potatoes in olive oil and spices......

Keep the Sangria coming as I watch the sunset over the blue waters.....

I have had enough excitement in my life I want to go out peacefully and calmly if possible and most importantly not in a hospital bed with tubes sticking out of me...

What makes you think that someone is there???? You may have been passed up and left to suffer horrible disasters until this October and when you die and go down down down :twisted:

Keep a good thought though.... :wink:

OK, this means two things.

One, you are still here too.

Two, you are saying that I should use my credit card to buy an air conditioner.

Er, want to go half on one of those portable 14,000 Btu units? :D
