   I sincerely hope that 100% of the employees for the Sallie Mae Student Loan Corporation are among those 25% that ascend next year. If that’s the case, I’m cool with being left behind.

   I’m accepting every credit card offer that hits my mailbox. Let the good times flow!

   Don’t forget their bank accounts in cash.

   Nice to meet someone else who is trapped by the hellhole of a company that is Sallie Mae.

   Sallie Mae, heh.

   Tom: ooh, that would explain the high rates of credit card default in the country, wouldn’t it?

   Josh: oh, yeah bank accounts! Hadn’t thought of that!

   Ah, revenge on the Millerites.

   You go up on that mountain. I’ll be over at the Lexus Dealership.

   Thanks, this is a kick in the pants, I gotta write that novel.

   And what are these people thinking. You *must* rebuild The Temple first, before Jesus will return. There is actually a rancher working on getting a “red heffer without blemish,” so once Israel scrubs that little mosque off the top of the mount (yeah, THAT’S going to happen soon) and rebuilds The Temple, we’ll have the sacrificial animal ready to go.

   So, I doubt it’s going to happen this year.

   Or should I buy season tickets to the Plain of Megeddo? Lets get ready to RUMBLE!

   (old man voice)Who are all you people in white robes? Get off a my mountain!

    You’re cracking me up, Steve. But good doctrinal point on the temple thing. Did you ever hear about the US evangelicals trying to raise money to rebuild the temple on the mount to help trigger the end of the world? Weird…

    Yes indeedy, they were the ones who paid for the special charter flight to transfer said herd of red heffers to Israel. If I took off my tin foil hat for a moment (and don’t think THAT’S going to happen) I might think that much of the current administration’s favor toward said country while ignoring or actively working against another country-wannabee could be traced to such millennial fervor.

    You do know they’re building a vacation park on the Plain of Meggido. It’s the investment opportunity Crazy Uncle Pat (Robertson) was thrown off of when he made that crack about the former PM suffering his stroke because he was willing to transfer Israeli land for peace.

    Weird shit about the vacation park on the plain of Meggido. That is just boggling.
