Strange thing is, the Chinese have had writting for like 6,000 years yet they make no mention of any giant rogue planet/star/gizmo or any related world catastrophies.

I know ... funny how that is.

It's amazing though, what the earth has been subjected to over the years ..

And ... I like the music ... as odd as that may seem.

The sun going nova is the likeliest but I won't last long enough to worry about it.

Civilization on the other hand is in the clear and present danger of being lost to the people that will protect us from terrorists on the secular plane or evil on the metaphysical. In either case the protection will cost us our freedom of expression and travel to start.

Well, first you kill off the unborn because of the oopsie excuse. Then you kill off the veterans by promoting euthanasia. Then you slowly kill off the elderly, the terminally ill and the disabled, also known as the nonproductive folks to Obama advisors, by rationing healthcare treatment to save a few bucks. Then in emergencies you withhold vaccines to young children that you haven't vested a lot of money in yet.

Then the rest of you that are left kill yourslves when your day of reckoning comes and you realize what a bunch of self-absorbed heartless b**tards you've "evolved" into that have nothing or no one worth dying for.

Do you feel compelled to by every copy of Catcher in the Rye you come across by any chance?

They actually had something on one of the documentary channels not to long ago on that.

According to the program, seems galaxies "collide" quite often.

Thing is tho, that the distance between stars is so immense that it allows galaxies to actually pass through each oter with little notice.

Our alien overlords will return and decide their experiment was a total failure. They will inject a plague into our environment that only kills humans, and the planet will be restored.
