I hope your right about the Mayans Rich, because if its not on the 21st, it will be the 25th for ME, if I don't go out a buy my OH her Christmas gifts. I'm waiting for the 22nd to do that. Think that's a good plan?

Sam, I like the plan.
Meanwhile, keep a close eye on the OH, and monitor her cell phone conversations. She may attempt to contact the aliens and barter your layout in exchange for her own safety.
What kind of steam engine are you planning to buy her in the event that we reach the 22nd?

Did it appear to you like ANYONE in here was taking it seriously and thinks it's going to happen?

It's NOT!!!
Oh No, I just blew the rent money on a brass locomotive!!!
Maybe we could send some nukes to the sun and blow it up on Friday, that's better than telling my wife we can't pay the rent.

Well Rich, now that you asked, she always did seem to have this thing for BIG BOYS. Thanks for the suggestion.
When the Mayan calendar runs out, I'm switching to the Playboy calendar. I like all kinds of models.

mactier_hoggerSome of our boneheaded politicians up here in Canada believe that the world is only 5000 years old!
I think one could easily make an argument that the "world" began with human's current recorded history. There may have been world's before that but they were certainly not ours.
It is now 3 days, 0 hours, 0 minutes,and 0 seconds until Friday, December 21, 2012 at 11:11:11 AM (UTC time).
I am still waiting for the latest pour of Woodland Scenics Realistic Water to completely clear.
I just hope that it is all done in time. I want this layout to be completed before it is all over.
If you can read this... thank a teacher. If you are reading this in english... thank a veteran
When in doubt. grab a hammer.
If it moves and isn't supposed to, get a hammer
If it doesn't move and is supposed to, get a hammer
If it's broken, get a hammer
If it can't be fixed with a hammer... DUCK TAPE!
Good one Teen Steam Fan!

Teen Steam Fan,
Is that a copy of track diagram that the one Mayan is holding?
I ask because I see several reverse loops connected by those crossovers.
There ya go, Rich solved the whole thing. The Mayans made the world's first track diagram. Complete with crossovers and reversing loops
A few hundred years before the first model railroad, but we will overlook that one
Nuf said?

Good morning, fellow modelers.
Well, this is it. According to the countdown timer, there are just over 35 minutes to the end.

I ran my trains last night for the last time. The Woodland Scenics Realistic Water pour still has not completely cleared. Now, it never will.
Nice knowing ya !
There are still people moving around. They must be zombies.
Well.....I am still here - now I have to go out and shovel snow. Didn't get gas for the snow blower because I didn't think I would be needing it......
There's never time to do it right, but always time to do it over.....
It's gone, it's all gone. We are gone we just don't know it.
Impending doom is here!!!!!!!!
My working for a living- life is ending today. I walk out the door here today and that will be it, I have retired! Maybe the Maya knew this was happening and that's what the Mayan Calendar was all about! How nice of them!

No big plans, going to a beer joint to have a few with working buds, tonight, then get intensly into the hobby over the winter. Taking a tour of Austria, next spring with side trips to Venice and Budapest.
Still here. Everything's is just....wait. Hold on, what's that?

I woke up this morning and looked out the window. The world was gone. There was nothing outside but blinding white light...
Then, I woke up a bit more and realized that I'm at a ski area, and it's snowing.
It is now obvious that the Mayans preferred continuous running over point-to-point.

According to "Doc", we have entered an alternate time divergant.
Our earth has in fact, been destroyed.
But we are now in another world and the date is: Nov. 5th 1955.
