5000 dead birds in Kentucky and Arkansas. Thousands of dead birds in Sweden. Now 40,000 dead crabs in England. Hmmmm.

And if you had been a fan of Flash Forward and realized that most of the birds to die were black, you would really be scratching your head right now.:confused:

You forgot "several hundred" dead birds near Murray State campus in westery KY last week. And 100,000 dead fish appearing suddenly on the banks of a 20 mi. stretch of the Arkansas river. And thousands of dead fish in Spruce creek in Volusia county Tues. And 100 tons of dead fish that washed up in Brazil in Parana. And hundreds of red snapper washing up dead on New Zealand's Coromandel Peninsula. And 2 million dead fish that floated to the top of the Chesapeake Bay in Maryland today. 2012 is the end of the world, ya know. According to that John Cusak movie, anyway.

I know that the Aztec calendar runs out in 2012, but my Dilbert calendar ran out 6 days ago and nothing ended.

No more birds messing up my car, or crabs snapping at me in the water? All the bees are already dying off. If we could just somehow get the mosquitos to croak, 2011 is going to be an AWESOME summer.

Won't be long before we have this place all to ourselves (evil laughter crescendo).

Maybe we had the same flash forward. In my flash forward I was a member of this great woodworking forum . . .
