Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, pandas, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

Oh, I was wrong when I said the 2010rapture.org website was down. Turns out our wireless router needed to be rebooted.
the router raptured!!!
Happy Birthdays, Nutty and Spidra!
re: the Rapture that apparently didn't happen, or, Is anyone you know missing?
That would be a great basis for a murder mystery. Someone loony who is following a Rapture predictor preacher is anxiously awaiting the day, nothing happens, so the loon kills the preacher because maybe the process needed a kickstart. Or a conman kills the preacher and hides the body so he can declare that only the preacher was holy enough to be Raptured and everyone else has been left behind.

My dad got into our family's genealogy after he retired and traced us back to Rottweil, Germany. Then he traveled there and had the local librarian call up random Schmehs until one woman dutifully came out to meet with him and discuss the family.
In America he traced us back to our first ancestor here, John Smay, who came over before the Revolutionary War. In Germany he went back to the 1400s once they got into the church records.
My paternal grandmother's maiden name was French and she came out of Wales so we think her line were Huguenots who came over from France.
My mom's side is Scots and came out of Maryland, well before the Civil War. Probably back to Colonial times.
I think anyone working with youth would do well to share info like this with them. Eldercare, green energy, recycling technologies - those seem like growing industries.
I will once again pitch welding. Welders are needed to build power plants, wind turbines, and much of the needed infrastructure repairs, and there's a critical shortage of them. We've become so focused on college for everyone that we've shortchanged any kind of technical track in high school that would lead to high-end technical training schools for things like welding and auto mechanics.
Frankly, I'm not sure I want to believe in a god who can't even manage his own Rapture on time. Screw that.
If I were an all-powerful deity, I'd just pick one person at random to Rapture. Screw everybody else.
Or else just Rapture all the hairless cats or something....
