December 21st 2012
A few weeks ago I heard some Scientologist (funny lot that they are) mention something about 2012, an event would happen that would change the way we live forever.
so, just now, i decided to look it up...
`Followers of New Age spirituality have long turned to indigenous religions for wisdom and inspiration, so it has not escaped their notice that something big happens in 2012: the ancient and complex Mayan calendar—studied by astrology, spirituality and history buffs alike—has chugged along for 1,872,000 days, (5000 years) and its cycle stops (and restarts) on Dec. 21, 2012.`

Now there's nothing i can read that's going to make me think any date means `the end of the world`, imho that's just a silly projection caused by a modern mindset of fear and wishful thinking.
But I hope I'm around to see what happens.
It's big tho, quite literally astronomically.
