I hear December 21, 2012 is when the world is going to end because it happens to be the end of the 5,125 year-long cycle of the Mayan calendar.  Wow!  Those Mayan calendar makers were pretty darn ambitious when they created such a long calender, especially considering their own civilization collapsed over a thousand years ago.  I’m just a little ticked off about the specific date. I feel like it’s going to be such an awkward holiday season, what with our impending doom and all.
