    I hope they were wrong, because I want to meet Jon Gruden when he gets on campus!

    If he takes the job, you should have three years to meet him.

    Somebody should open up a restaurant on the Square and call it The Restaurant at the End of the World, but only open up for one day December 21, and only take pre-paid reservations.

    That is such a Mercury retrograde thing to say because Mercury "went direct" two days ago.

    This is a great idea!

    Maybe, like others, the Blab is suffering from Doomsday fatigue.

    There was, of course, the Y2K doomsday on January 1, 2000, which was also possibly the date of the millennium doomsday, except there was much confusion over when the millennium began and the world ended and when all that happened on January 1, 2000, was that the V-Roys disbanded, the millennium doomsday got switched to January 1, 2001, and then there was the Rapture doomsday in 2005 or 2006 that somebody in the US predicted, and then there was the end of the world as we know it doomsday when Obama got elected in 2008, and then we just had another Rapture doomsday in April or May of last year as forecast by Harold whatshisname, and now we just had the second end-of-the-world-as-we-know-it Obama doomsday with his reelection just weeks ago, and now we're supposed to worry about some Mayan end-of-time-calendar doomsday? And that's not even accounting for all the other little cultist doomsdays over the last decade, scattered around the world?

    I think we're just plumb doomsdayed out.
