What an amazing show of ignorance.

Don't you know the schedule?

Earthquakes hit at 18 local time. Thats over 12 hours from now.
 
I did feel a rumbling this morning. I panicked at first. Ended up just being my hungry stomach :)

Don't ban Pengy, just whack him senseless with some raptured imaginary ugly, slimy fish, that is a more fitting punishment.

Rhody... :devil: :eek:
 
Finally received an explanation.

Chuck Norris canceled the rapture. Apparently the planned destruction of the world wasn't up to his standards.
 
OMG! It's an earthquake! For real!

This was the Resurrection of the dead that was also suppose to happen. :-p
 
There was a small earthquake around 7pm last night in the bay area.

For a second, I thought the world was ending.

You know, him being a penguin and all, I don't think that even counts as punishment. LOL!

You'll know the rapture's coming when they announce that Firefly is coming back to television.
