Apparently today is supposed to be the end of the world. So if you are not whisked off to join all the other Christian fundamentalist in heaven, then like me, you will be facing a Zombie Apocalypse this time tomorrow.

Unless you live in Palmerston North, then it just be like any other day.

So with that news in mind, I am busy banging in nails into a baseball bat and later me and kids will be off to Mitre 10......I remember they had a special on machetes.

The CDC has issued a survival guide to help over the next few weeks.

What handy Zombie killing stuff do you have lying around?

They keep reporting that the end of the world will be at 6pm.....but no-one has mentioned a time zone...so....do we just all take it in turn???

Did we survive?

j19fmm

Guess you guys did...perhaps it'll start here first...oh poop...more hours of rain to put up with ....

Apparently, it's 10am Sunday, our time......best have a few more beers, if it's going to be my last!!

It was supposed to start 6pm Saturday in NZ and then go through each time zone at 6pm

Poo, I find it so annoying when aliens, deities and ends-of-the-world aren´t specific with their time of arrival predictions, don´t you?

The really should be a standard imposed, calendar, year, month, date, hour, minute AND timezone....how can we plan otherwise???? and if you don´t get it right you could, well, miss it

Also remember the "This could be our last/only chance to have sex" excuse.

Am Loolah

Typical, I missed that too ...

Dan Carter was playing for the Crusaders that night IRRC, maybe 2012?

I KNEW the world was not going to end, I bought 45 tins of baked beans on Friday morning. I am not suggesting the purchase of beans saved us all......it's mint peas that are supposed to ward off raptures. Wibble.

But there may be noxious winds emanating from Palmy

Save them for October - return of the rapture. The world's going to end in a fireball then, beans and methane will be useful.

If it does happen at least I'll be in NZ by then

We now have until the 21st October. Apparently God has decided to be merciful and we'll be engulfed by an enormous fireball then so we'll all die quickly instead of 5months of pain and terror
Pretty pointless doing any kind of emergency preparation for that!
