Doomsday Preppers is a Hit
February 13, 2012
Doomsday Preppers, the 10-part TV series, premiered on National Geographic channel Tuesday, and a whopping 4 million American people tuned in. That makes it the most viewed Nat Geo show ever for a Tuesday.
Hopefully the message will get through to many of the viewers, in case there is a catastrophe this year (or in the future…)

Chevy Super Bowl Advert
February 4, 2012
Only two products survive the apocalypse: Chevy Silverado and Twinkies. Fords didn’t make it… The ad features common 2012 themes like volcanic eruptions and UFOs, but they also slipped in some raining frogs for good measure.

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

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.
