I'm Still Here, You're Still Here

Some wag suggested leaving piles of clothes scattered around last evening. I sort of like that idea, and might have done it, but my neighborhood is so leftist and so secular that people wouldn't have understood it. Besides, it probably would have scared the children.

I have to wonder, though, about the kind of person who would feel such joy at the idea that they and those who are just exactly like them are going to be "saved" and everyone else is going to suffer torments. Somehow, that doesn't strike me as terribly Christian.

As for the guy who blew his life savings on billboards, I'm sorry to sound uncharitable, but he's an idiot.

So, we have managed to survive the end of the world yet again. I guess there's cause for relief in that. The downside is, this means I have to do laundry.
