That's not why the Mayan calendar ended. The ancient Mayans discovered Randy Rawls' books and simply stopped working to read them.Earl Staggshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13349667172813175960noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7041804343600978883.post-24031218136304154592012-01-07T21:02:29.890-06:002012-01-07T21:02:29.890-06:00I don't think Y2K was a scam at all.
I have ...I don't think Y2K was a scam at all. <br /><br />I have been getting some e-mail since Sandi came home last month about investing in some water aquifer that supposedly is buried under the surface of East Texas. If I invest now, I am guaranteed water no matter how bad the drought gets.<br /><br />Now, that is a scam.<br /><br />I put the sender in touch that needs help getting the money out of the country.<br /><br />I have yet to be thanked by either party and nobody has paid my requested finder's fee of 10k for putting them together. Talk about ungrateful.<br /><br /><br /><br />KevinKevin R.

You said, "Hey, let's mix them together and see what happens." We did and have been slinging it at each other ever since. (All in good fun, of course.)<br /><br />Write on, everyone.

I mean, look how many there have been since 1999/2000.<br /> Maybe we should stat a contest predicting the next one. I predict it will have to do with either unemployment or the housing market.Randy Rawlshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11707838304774622694noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7041804343600978883.post-8357707397377753862012-01-05T13:48:54.056-06:002012-01-05T13:48:54.056-06:00Sylvia,
