    LMAO...sorry but I found that amusing.

    Just like other predictions, you see what you want to see. Some people saw the devil in the smoke from the twin towers on 9/11 and claimed that the devil wanted it to happen and that it fulfilled a prophecy. I saw a lot of smoke and a tragedy.

    There was snow in Mobile, so I'm sure it drifted over to the panhandle

    Forget red and blue — color America white. There was snow on the ground in 49 states Friday. Hawaii was the holdout.

    It was the United States of Snow, thanks to an unusual combination of weather patterns that dusted the U.S., including the skyscrapers of Dallas, the peach trees of Atlanta and the Florida Panhandle, where hurricanes are more common than snowflakes.

    More than two-thirds of the nation's land mass had snow on the ground when the day dawned yesterday, and then it snowed ever so slightly in Florida to make it 49 states out of 50.

    At the same time, those weird weather forces are turning Canada's Winter Olympics into the bring-your-own-snow games.

    Who's the Great White North now?

    Actually...it was 50 out of 50 states wasn't it? Hawaii has some pretty high mountains that were supposedly snow capped. That counts in my opinion.

    And the day we stop manned space flight will be a sad day indeed. What's the point of going into space in a robot? In the 60's we went to the moon with enough computing power to rival a cheap calculator. Now we're getting too chicken to venture out of Earth's orbit. It baffles me.

    And I agree with what's been said about the Mayan calendar. No calendar can last forever. Plus, the Mayan calendar is a freakin' circle. You can only spin a circle through so many combinations before it runs out and starts over. I don't know about you guys, but I'll be looking forward to a nice Christmas in 2012 :)
