Nut Jobs

Does anyone else find it amusing, by the way, that the word 'fundamentalist' is two-thirds 'mentalist'?

It's the end of the world as we know it. Or is it?

I woke up this morning nursing the sort of hangover that only starting to drink at 4pm and finishing at midnight can deliver, and was almost disappointed to find the world still here. I can only assume, somewhere in the back of my twisted mind, I wanted the Christian fundamentalist nutjobs to be right about May 21 2011.

To quote Peter Cook in his end of the world sketch, "Well, not quite the conflagration we were expecting."

Mind you, I haven't been outside yet. Perhaps everyone else has been raptured and it's just me and the cat left.
