    He hits one out of the park once in a while, but can't get on base worth a damn. Definitely not a five-tool soothsayer.

    The upside is I won't have to worry about turning 50 in 2013.

    On a tour of Mayan ruins, our guide said that 2012 end-of-the-world stuff as it relates to the calendar is a bunch of bull. The calendar just starts all over again.

    Yes, but it has fallen down. The downfall has begun, even if it's not complete. What is the definition of downfall as it relates to this prediction for 2012?

    Yeah, that wasn't an entirely accurate jab, but the breadth -- http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roman_Catholic_sex_abuse_cases_by_country
    -- and amount of money spent dealing with it certainly didn't help.

    Edit: I wasn't looking to jack this thread into a hearing on the Catholic Church, unpredictable as threadjacks are.

    Jesus Christ, if you have to split hairs over one word ... oh wait, I forgot where I was ... the land of every word being literal ... would collapse suit you better?

    Is that the final score? Did the Fightin' Nostradami win?
