What a busy time of year! In addition to the usual holiday madness, thanks to the Mayans we must plan for one additional big event this year. According to their calendar, we should plan for The End Of The World, Doomsday or – if you prefer… The Apocalypse, on December 21st.
John Hodgman has written a handy survival guide in case the worst does happen…Although you will begin to view the world differently when you read his warnings. Packs of dogs will now take on sinister meaning for you, and hoarding urine and mayonnaise well, they're signs of an organized mind, not a nutter. Take it from John, when your internet has winked out and the ancient and unspeakable creatures (pictured) return, you'll be smug in the knowledge that you've prepared for calamity. Alternately, if nothing happens, I suspect that John will pay top dollar for a hide-out, just until this doomsday business blows over.
