Amazing 2012 Event at Chichen Itza

January 28, 2012

Hunbatz Men, Robert Bauval, Gregg Braden, Colin & Synthia Andrews – popular speakers on the 2012 circuit, but there’s a special place where you can see them in Dec 2012 – at Chichen Itza, heart of Maya country.

The tour, called Maya 2012, runs Dec 12-22. Price is $4000.

For Dec 21, precisely at the time of the solstice, how does this sound?

Power Places Tours has been granted special permission to be inside Chichen-Itza for three hours early in the morning at the exact time of the Solstice, when the site is closed and otherwise off-limits to the public! A special sacred event and ceremony will take place.

Crystal Skull Vodka

January 26, 2012

I’m not suggesting that a staying drunk is a valid coping mechanism for 2012.

Nor am I giving any value to the idea that crystal skulls have special powers, or were even made by the ancient Maya.

But you have to admit, as far as vodka bottles go, this is impressive and somehow appropriate:

KRS-One: New 2012 Rap

January 21, 2012

Full size at YouTube

The lyrics to Aztechnical show that KRS-One has studied 2012, knows it inside out, and has his own take on it. Basically, if you believe in a doomsday prophecy, someone will use it against you. Just like the Spanish did against the MesoAmericans. Cortez deliberately made their prophecy come true, for his own purposes.

This is probably the most intelligent rap on 2012 there will ever be, so here are the lyrics:

[Verse 1]
If you don’t like what you singing, you sing a different hook
If you don’t like what you cooking, you get a different cook
If you don’t like what you wearing, you get a different look
You wanna escape Armageddon, read a different book
When knowledge is right there, we don’t even look
December 2012 got this whole world shook
But look, the last days for others are the first days for us
The question to ask is who can you trust
Respect to all that 2012 stuff
But when you really study it it’s fear, it don’t apply to us

Nice Calendar for 2012

January 12, 2012

Nice in that it is a nice fit for a doomsday year… http://www.lulu.com/product/calendar/2012/18783665

I have it, and don’t judge it by the cover – it’s the best doomsday calendar I have seen so far.

UPDATE – In Australia another 2012 calendar has just become available. It’s a bit odd – Cats of the Apocalypse.

Daily Mail Spreads 2012 Suicide Idea

January 10, 2012

For a publication with the reach of the Daily Mail, suggesting that some people are considering killing themselves – as a response to the 2012 meme – is irresponsible. It will almost certainly cause some additional people to make such a consideration.

There is nothing new in the article at all – just a mish mash of articles that have appeared over the years.

Geryl Offers $10K Reward

January 8, 2012

Patrick Geryl has put out a $10,000 reward. He is hoping to find someone with the necessary skills and qualifications who can convert his static analysis of solar activity changes into a dynamic model, and the hard part is that it needs to be published in a recognised astronomical journal.

The offer and supporting documents are at Tall Bloke.

I hope someone takes up the challenge – Geryl’s calculations are quite complex, and having them verified (or disproved) by an expert would be good for the 2012 community.
