I nearly had to have someone give me CPR, but my Falcons pulled it out. Could we have a bird Super Bowl? Falcons vs Ravens? lol
-
Were these created by the mind of Wes Craven or Tim Burton?
-
Happy Birthday, Cassie. I hope it's a great one.
-
Thanks, Hector. I can see the similariities, except I think everyone else was focusing on the good ol' boys, not Devin, but he might fit the Rambo mode, just not quite as macho.
-
Happy Birthday Krista. I hope it's a great one.
-
Zachary, you're a real sucker. lol
-
Excuse me that this isn't in my usual size font or color, but it doesn't seem to be working for me. Anyway, Happy Birthday, Kyle and I hope it's a great one. The entire world is throwing a huge party on your behalf.
-
Happy Birthday, Jack. Unfortunately, you were one of those people who got shortchanged with a birthday during the holidays, but I hope it's still a great one.

I'll be rooting for the Falcons, although I'm not sure if they're as strong as their record would indicate.

After living in the north for many years, I do miss snow for Christmas, but you can keep it the rest of the year.

Thank you for reading and responding, Yettie One, and I'm glad this got you thinking. I'm not certain if the Doomsday Preppers have it right, but I do know if something like this were to happen then we'd have to adapt to a more primitive lifestyle. I'm not convinced there is enough wild game to support the current population, since we've become used to dining on domestic animals, but it would be something we'd need to do again. However, I know there are enough guns and ammunition in the current population that would account for a great deal of killing.

Thanks, Wayne. I'm glad you enjoyed it and I did paint a bleak picture. There may have been others that did as Gavin and Rory had, but not in the immediate vicinity or at least that they were aware of. I tend to feel that if something like this were to happen, we're likely to see the worse of mankind come to the surface. Thanks for the feedback.

We're going with Prime Rib, heart attack mashed potatoes, green bean casserole, several types of pie and lots of wine.

Merry Christmas to those who work so hard to keep this site running!
-
Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to everyone at GA!

Thanks, RJ, and no matter how much I'd prefer to believe in the basic good in my fellow man, too often they have proved me wrong. I feel that if something like this were to happen, even if it was only a regional occurence and not a global one, the events I've indicated could unfortunately come to pass. Thanks for the feedback.

If at first you don't succeed, pick a new date and try, try again. This article says the Mayan calendar might not actually end until Dec. 24. http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2012/12/23/end-of-the-world-christmas-eve_n_2355787.html?icid=maing-grid7%7Cmain5%7Cdl16%7Csec3_lnk1%26pLid%3D249372

Happy Birthday, Greg. I hope it's a great one, but I'm still going to keep the crown.
-
Thanks,Cia, and I'm glad you stuck with it all the way to an end. What I hoped to show was that even though nature didn't destroy the world, mankind would find it easier to attack and try to gain by force, rather than trying to band together and help each other out, as Gavin and Rory tried to do for their friends. Thanks for the feedback.
-
Hey, just look at it this way. At least you weren't foolish enough to spend tons of money preparing for the worst. I wonder how those people now feel about their doonsday investments? lol
-
Misreading feelings and intentions can lead to tense and sometimes drastic encounters. It's sad, however, when they lead to a tragic end. Interesting take on the theme.
-
When your story started, I thought you were going to explore the religious apocolyptic approach, but then you switched to a lost civilization. I'm not sure if that previous civilization was ET inspired or possibly Atlantis related, but it give a different view of what the end of the world meant. I enjoyed reading your story.
-
The end on a single person's world. Interesting take, all too believable, showing how a single error in judgment can have a huge impact on your life.
-
An interesting take on the theme, with an other worldly twist. I knew I would never be on one of those survival lists, but I'm glad you pointed out the fact that there construction may be significantly flawed and still end up dooming the survival of the human race. Well done and extremely interesting.
-
It certainly wasn't the end of the world I was expecting, but I thoroughly enjoyed it. I also loved the creative use of the holographic image. Great job!
