Liz CA Posted May 22, 2011 Share Posted May 22, 2011 Well, it's past 6p.m. in my time zone and I am still here...:glare: Evidently, I didn't make the cut, dh is still here too. For those who have no clue what this is about, there is a so-called Christian group that is (was?) convinced that all believers would be raptured today, May 21 at 6p.m. local time. I missed the boat. http://www.youcanknow.org Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, I'm a missionary and I posted that I'm posting from heaven. I do think that God has a great sense of humor and wasn't offended. Proof positive of his sense of humor- the duck-billed platypus.

Donna Posted May 22, 2011 Share Posted May 22, 2011 We were sitting in a pub listening to dd play in an Irish music session. There were uilleann pipes at the session which sometimes can sound okay but not if the person playing them is a bit new to playing pipes. Just before 6pm ny mother leaned over to me and said, "Well, if the sound changes to harp we know we got to go but if we still hear those pipes, I think we might be heading the other direction." I told her that just being in a pub probably disqualified us.:glare: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ravin Posted May 22, 2011 Share Posted May 22, 2011 My sister very helpfully posted relevant bible verses on her Facebook page--the ones saying no one gets to know when it'll happen.

FaithManor Posted May 22, 2011 Share Posted May 22, 2011 Dh came into the dining room at 6 p.m. and yelled, "Everybody jump!" No go for launch. So, we didn't make it either. Oh well, another day on planet earth. It could be worse, Mercury, Venus, Pluto...... I'm laying a solid bet that when I get to church, the pews will be pretty full.

Seriously, a quilt fabric free-for-all, I am banal enough to be tempted to partake thereof!
