Did the Rapture Take Up All the Wingers Yet?

Please let me know when they're all gone into the heavens to be with their Lord. I have projects waiting to be started.

Thanks!

Kind of like the ending of Don Giovanni, where the Commendatore drags him to Hell and everybody else sings happy songs.

or cars crashed into trees and light poles. A shame, since I was hoping those lunatics would be going away and maybe leave behind some good stuff.

I've expressed the fact that I am a Christian many times here. I'm not a crazy evangelical, but more a red-letter type.

I haven't gone anywhere yet today!!! LOL I'm not expecting to go anywhere either. This whole thing is preposterous, and for myself with those Christian beliefs, the idea of someone prophesizing this is completely blasphemous and improper.

Guess I'd better figure out what's for lunch...
