I guess it doesn't matter if we can't reproduce, with only 6 months left.

P.S.

Rapture jokes also getting old. Looks like we'll have no humor while we wait.
Even worse. I had to work today. Fucking Washington state allows motions to be filed on 5 business days notice. Thus, when Plaintiff drops one on you at 4:30 on Thursday, my opposition is due 4:30 the next Tuesday, for a hearing on the next Thursday.

That said, it is arguably better than watching the Miami Heat. (Disclosure - I have money on the Mavericks.)

you've bet money that the Dallas Mavericks will win the NBA finals? did Harold Camping's advice play into that decision?

In a sense. I have 5 contacts @ $20 each to win $100 per contract that they win the Finals, but those contracts are liquid. I bought them when the Mavs went up 2-0 on the Lakers. I could sell them today for $28, but will probably wait until after they beat the Thunder. If the Heat win the East, they will likely only get $35 to $40 each, but if the Bulls win (hence my bias against the Heat), they might have been close to $50.

Day 3, After the Apocolypse.

Still no sign of anyone but Less, Hank, and Adder. They're talking basketball. I'm starting to hope their food runs out soon and they have to resort to cannibalism.

Fugee reports on the other board that she's a ghoul. I would have thought angel, but, either way, it seems she's raptured. I'm sensing some very big scores for the death board this year!

Fugee posted on the death pool board. Could it be Zombie Fugee? Surely if anyone was raptured it was her.

Damn. That would be a scary sight.

I just grabbed lunch - my office scotch is now gone. Hell. This Apocolypse thing is worse than I expected.

Surely you have people you can send on a run to refresh it.

Cletus has appeared on Politics, but isn't he one of Hank's socks?

Day 3. Later in the afternoon.

I don't know who is themselves and who is a zombie. I jump every time someone (something?) walks by my door.

I ran out and looted a liquor store, and have restored my scotch supply. There was a zombie at the cash register - I have no doubt that one was a zombie, with the blank stare, the sunken cheeks, the waxen complexion. My skin crawled. Still, this scotch won't last forever, especially if I keep taking a swig everytime I worry about zombies.

The board remains hell. Am I condemned to chat with Adder and Hank's socks for eternity? Can Less and I set up a separate board with Zombie Fugee? Or is that just asking for a M-Z-M?

If you're a confused lapsed Catholic like me, and have been wondering where this Rapture thing comes from, as none of your mainstream Protestant relatives and friends believe in it, none of your Jewish relatives have a clue as to where it came from, and you can't recall any reference to this event in the bible, well, here is is - the Source of The Rapture:

In the 1830s, a defrocked Catholic Priest named Edward Irving developed the Rapture theory popular in America based on the fantastic visions of a 15 year old Scottish girl named Mary MacDonald.

Salem, this... It's always young chicks hallucinating crazy shit. Personally, I blame what was then known as "female hysteria." If there'd have been good vibrators in circulation, none of this would have happened.*

*And perhaps a little less ergot poisoning in the bread the Puritans were eating.
