    Are we doomed?

    It has been said that Nostrodamus has predicted the end of the Earth sometime 2011.
    Anybody actually believe this?

    Everyone who has predicted the end of the earth previously has been wrong.
    Can I choose both? He was a crackpot but also the man. (And wrong)

    There's no chance for us. Eat, drink, and the person with the most STD's by 2011 wins.

    But wasn't it end of civilization as we know it he predicted ?
    Or was that, that a man with a towel on his head changes it ?
    Or was it that a rogue planet (aparently hidden by the sun) actually comes into our orbit in 2012 that is suppose to fuck up our G ?
    Soooo vague !!!!!!
    Can't wait !
    A girlfriend once asked " Why is it you seem to prefer to race, than spend time with me ?"
    The answer was simple ! "I'll prolly get bored with racing too, once i've nailed it !"

    Bowls can wait !

    That's how I interpreted the book I read, the end of the world as we know it, a new world order!


    What is the world as you know it anyway? Just when you think you may know it, it's not what it seemed at all!!

    I reckon Nostrodamus' 'predictions' are extreemly vauge dibble that can only 'predict' anything when applied to an event after it has happened. A few years back I heard Gary McCormick take one of Nostrodamus' dire predictions that supposedly 'predicted' something like 911, and apply it to the All Blacks loosing the world cup because Helen Clark was PM. It fitted perfectly.

    The Mayan calender stops at 2011 - I think that confirms it for me.

    Ha, we are not doomed. He is so wrong.

    Here's why. According to my interpretations, in 1555 Nostradamus predicted that Chelsea would beat Everton in the 2009 FA Cup final 2-1 with Dider Drogba scoring the winner. Wrong, it was Frank Lampard.
