What Time Is The End Of The World?

 December 12, 2012...This surely must be an indication of something??  Excitement in the Midwest!

I was talking on the phone with my sister from California and she told me about an "End Of The World Party" she was invited to on December 21st.  I told her it sounded like fun, and suggested they should play Prince's song, "I'm gonna party like it's 1999."  She thought the song by REM, "it's the end of the world as we know it"  would be a good choice too.  She wondered out loud; living on the West coast, what time is the end supposed to happen?    Hm-m-m is it eastern, or standard, or pacific or mountain time?  Does anyone know?  I'm thinking maybe Pacific time.  But would that give me enough time to finish painting my bathroom?   

I took into consideration the most recent exciting date 12-12-12, when hundreds of people ran out to get married and/or do other odd things to celebrate the date.  The highlight for me on December 12, 2012, was when highway workers came to my house to remove the huge construction sign that was planted in my front yard for over a year.  Cheers erupted in my house as they yanked the large orange sign out of the lawn.  Do you know what a nightmare it was trying to cut and trim the grass around that damn sign?  So based on this excitement, it doesn't take much for us to get happy.  I think I'll just go paint my bathroom so when they discover my body somewhere in the future, I will be a glimpse into the past as they wonder why mankind was so concerned about the paint color on bathroom walls when an apocalypse was foretold!
