The beginning and the end***

[Frankn]

Well most have heard that the world will end on Dec. 21. 2012, but did you know that the Maya also believed that time started on Aug. 11, 3114 BC. The Maya did not actually say the world would end in 2012. It was the end of their long count calender. They believed they were living in the 4Th long count cycle. A little food for thought.

On the beginning of time they were about 900 years off.

T , They only predicted the end of their time cycle, not the end of the world!
Kentucky, You got to remember, the didn't have computers so I think they did darn good. Frank

Since they couldn't go on to infinity, the calendar would eventually end.

So, what do you do when you come to a fence? You climb over it, crawl under it, or just go around it.

Kinda like the universe. If it had an end, what would be on the other side?

Now let's see how crazy things get because of all the hype knowing there is not a thing we can do! Remember all the craziness for Y2K? The store I worked at sold out of generators, batteries and water.

I got a lot of OT during that time. Everyone knew computers all over the world were gonna crash!!!
The only thing that we had was old programs that used 2 numbers for the year, and assumed the beginning was 19xx!

Was a good thing, because my wife got cancer on Feb. 2000... spent all that and more!!!!

Yep, not worried about the Maya's!!!!!!!!!!!!

First thing you need to realize,
Dispite archaeological rumors,
The Maya were non to Bright.


the Mayan performed human sacrifice.
and Drove themselves to extinction.
(Probably came down to the last 2 .
One pregnant Woman & one Man. Wanted
Favor from their Gods, & Sacraficed the pregnant
woman )

IF you could Travel back in time,

Would you take advice from a cave Man
on the best place to build a Casino ?

or atlantians on the secret of longevity ?

I have no intention of missing Christmas next year....so to their calendar

 

[Frankn]

Now Jeff, you know they only sacrificed virgins and loosing ball teams. Frank

They simply ran out of room on that rock; the world is not ending. There are still 47 undiscovered Myan rocks with calendars on them so don't panic!
The ONLY person that could EVER tell the future was my Mom. She was always right when she said things like, "You're really gonna get it when your father gets home".

It will be fun to watch all the reactions to the doom sayers on Dec 22, 2012 when the world does not end.

Just saying.
