In view of this, today will be a day of mourning…

I always thought that the rapture was about dancing very close, barely breathing.

I would be to differ, sir. That would certainly be drinking Aquavit with the Swedes during a New Year’s dinner. By the end of an evening with my girlfriend’s family from Sweden, I was almost certain I was no longer on the Earth…

I’ve been looking and I don’t see it yet….

if the rapture folks want it they’ll have to pry it from my dead hands.

oh, wait…
