End of World Headlines

Postby brainpanhandler » Mon Oct 04, 2010 12:02 pm

Imagining the headlines from the last edition of a major daily newspaper on the day certain doom is upon us. Feel free to imagine your own end of world scenario



All hope is lost. Lucifer's Hammer expected to strike the north American continent tonight at 11:11 pm est.

Las Vegas bookmakers have our odds of survival as a species at 1000 to 1.

Crowd of 2,000 show up for superbowl that wasn't.

Los Angeles burns to the ground.

10 million christians march to Washington DC in massive prayer vigil.

On R.I.

JR and Alice decide to work on (very short) book together

Jeff does his best blog post of all, tieing together all known anomalous events on Earth up until that time with the breeding cycle of jellyfish.

HMW reveals himself to be the long rumoured lovechild of Marshall MacLuhan and Lady Bird Johnson.

Michael Shermer joins the Forum and sez "I wish I had thought more about jellyfish" \<]

We vote on an RI theme tune and have it as the background music for the big E.
