it's 6pm and there's no sign of a rapture. Rationality wins out once again over doom-mongers. In other news, can anyone find me an interview with Harold Camping dated   21 May or later? I want to see the bullshit he comes up with this time. My guess is that he's going to look in the Apocrypha next, but I'm not sure. Anyway, happy non-rapture day and see you on May 22!

OK, this Friday parody really  isn't working. In other news, while our good old British rapture is scheduled for 6 o'clock this evening (and I do  hope someone will bring the tea and biscuits), it seems to be scheduled for 6 o'clock everywhere and there's a map (kindly provided by RaptureFail ) detailing, well...the lack of massive earthquakes and mass disappearances of people everywhere.

And I haven't been able to find any interviews with him from today...links appreciated, because I want to see him making an ass of himself.

For slightly better news, it is Friday aka "beginning of the weekend". And for slightly worse  news...it's apparently the Rapture tomorrow . (Interestingly, the first site I linked to says "best viewed in Internet Explorer"...sigh.) Of course it won't be, but people believe weird things. In the unlikely event that that crazy schmuck Harold Camping is actually right  (as a general rule, anyone saying that the end of the world will happen on such-and-such a date , or using an ancient, largely ambiguous and sometimes contradictory source , tends to be wrong), could one of the 200 million people that have been saved take some pictures and post them on the internet? I'd like to see something before I, as a free-willed sinner, fall uncon...
