NOTE FROM CARL:
Well Y2K didn’t end civilization as
advertised, but there’s still the Mayan
prediction of the end of this life cycle
in 2012. Five-plus years to The End…
what to do, what to do?

The Top 7 Things to
Do Between Apocalypses
Do Between Apocalypses
7> Floss. On Judgement Day, details count.
6> Run up debts like crazy - they’ll never be able to collect!
5> Employ lessons learned from Y2K: 1) Variety is just as important as quantity; 2) Get a girlfriend before the *real* apocalypse; 3) Get a hibachi and some steak sauce in case 1 and 2 don’t work out.
4> Practice varying pitch, cadence and volume while repeatedly shouting “wolf!”
3> Put that, “Only 2147 days until the apocalypse” down-counter on my website because FEMA sure as hell isn’t going to warn anybody.
2> Start an emu farm. When the time comes, you’ll know why.
and the Number 1 Thing to Do Between Apocalypses…
1> Since the world’s going to end anyway, for once, dare to underestimate the power of soup.
