Actually you can still get twinkies outside the states
It's just the U.S. license that is <<expired>>


Can't quite get a handle on anyone actually believing the world is going to end.
Course, there are those that believe campaign rhetoric, too, so there you go .... :)

Not sure if it's been discussed, but the Maya didn't predict this as the end of the world, just the end of a long-count calendar. Another starts after that.

In fact, inscriptions with reference to dates after this Friday were found as well.

the Mayans weren't nearly as goofy as people on the interwebz
 
was it not the Mayans that set Wednesday as "Prince Spaghetti Night"?

Wow, we could import them and make a fortune on Ebay... rare imported cake treats. Only $10 each, delivered fresh to your door once a week. Discounts on all orders shipped after 12/21/12.
 
Had a group of kids (aged 13-14) seriously ask me what I thought about the world ending 12/21 the other day. I told them to prepare they should have a comfy lawn chair ready so that they can enjoy the view.

I was ultra impressed to receive a smile and nod from each as they understood what was meant by that.

Looks like Jake and I are going to be really busy on Friday :ZZZ!!!

Not me . . . I'm catching a ride on the Hale-Bopp comet . . . went out and bought my jogging suit last night. Will be mixing up some Purple Kool Aid tonight for something to drink along the way. :)

Reading, Hazelton, Latimer, Warrington, Perkasie....all the stomping grounds of parts of my family before and even now......

Quakertown is where I got all my stoves in the early days...lots of stove history around there.

When I lived there I found out they don't call it "Bucks" county for nothing......
;)
Hah! My husband's family lived in Warrington for many generations! The original farm house was on a lot of property that was divided up to all the kids and their kids and so on....
Before we moved to Point Pleasant, PA, east of Doylestown, we lived in his Grandmothers 309 sq ft sears and robuck kit house his family built. You wouldn't recognize Warrington now, it's like driving in NE
Philly with all of the stripmalls, no more farm and :(

We went to Quakertown to get a stove but they were so mean to us, we left. Turned out good for us anyway as we ended up getting ours used from a friend :)

Small world!
