[...] Jules Crittenden points out that today at 12:34 PM and 56 seconds it was 12:34:56 7/8/9 … and I missed it. Actually, I was there but I didn’t realize it. [...]

I woke up this morning only to find the world is gone. I’m typing this and posting it with sheer mind power.

End of the world?

If Ted Kennedy, Barney Frank, Nancy Pelosi, Joe Biden and the Messiah go first I’ll stay and hold down the fort.

It’s so nice to find out that I’m not the only OCD freak around. My girlfriend thought I was nuts last night & I got a few strange looks at work today when I made everyone stop & watch the clock with me.

You mean the world is not ending today?
Dang! I took out a humongous loan from a guy that goes by the name of “Thumbs” so’s I could have a ginormous End of the World Party!

I hope he doesn’t expect to get his money back.

The horsemen may yet arrive if they are on European time….while you guys use the date format mm/dd/yy over in Ireland we use the format dd/mm/yy. Over this side of the pond it wont be until August 7th that 12.34.56 7/8/9 hits.

Surely then the gnashing of garmets, rending of tongues, flossing of teeth, etc will begin.

Today is also the punchline to a really bad joke.

Why was six afraid of seven?

Seven eight nine.

Har har!

Still here. No obvious signs of the End Times. Well, unless you count that fused-blossom Siamese twin of a coneflower growing outside my window.

Doing single-digit years now, are we?

Four-digits is the standard, has been since the global economic meltdown caused by the “Y2K” bug, surely you remember? But “2009″ wouldn’t work, would it?

A nice meme, but a little hokey.
