    US preacher warns end of the world is nigh: 21 May, around 6pm, to be precise
    http://www.independent.co.uk/news/w...-21-may-around-6pm-to-be-precise-2254139.html

    Read the full article on the link above.

    At least we Aussies will have another 14-16 (approx) hours of life due to time zone differences. :-D

    I reckon FredG will be well prepared. :major
    What are you doing?

    IIRC, my ex and I went down to a South Australian beach to witness "the end of the world" in 1976. :-D

    Rather than a list of things I want to do, I have a list of things I will NOT be doing because the world is ending! LOL

    • laundry
    • dishes
    • housecleaning
    • paying bills

    LOL

    I was planning to mow the lawns tomorrow. But even if I leave it until Sunday, it's still Saturday in the preacher's part of the world.
    And the weather's just taken a cold turn so I can't even G&T my way to the apocalypse.

    EDIT - bigbazza, you would have shared that day with Don Dunstan, am I right?

    Hey, NOT paying bills.
    I like that one. ;)
    It'll save some postage stamps.

    Do I still have to take a shower?

    What's the dress code?
    Is it casual, or should I wear a coat and tie.

    6:09 pm here in Perth, nothing yet.
    Maybe the Almighty works on Pacific Daylight Time.

    I never know how to feel about things like this,on one hand the people that donate deserve to have their money took from them,on the other I hate with a passion people who get rich through religion.

    I'd laugh if he has a heart attack at 6.00pm:-DLike Donni Darko or something...

    I think most men are more afraid of their wives than of any prediction that the world will end. If the world is ending, you better believe that you should still take out the trash!!! :-D:-D

    I was wrong in my previous posts. :-o
    Prediction was for 6pm in each time zone, not USA alone.

    New Zealand would have been the first major country to come to an end.
    2 hours later it would have been us Aussies turn.

    By then the preacher should have realised that his prediction was wrong AGAIN. :-D
