Well obviously since you are reading this, the Apocalypse did not occur. We have much to be thankful, besides it not being the "end of days". We have our health. We are employed. We have warm homes and loving families. We should all learn to appreciate what we have, while we do...
Since we have been to Chichen Itza (where El Castillo is located), we can attest to the mystique surrounding the area. The calendar was only a small part of it. One part that caught my attention were the Mayan baby skull presses.These appeared to me as though they were trying to elongate their skulls similar to aliens (?).
Actually, at this point, we should be more concerned about the fiscal cliff...and what our Congress has become, in spite of the election. Too bad we didn't throw all the bums out...

Why Grandfathers are different:
Have you ever wondered what the difference is between Grandmothers and Grandfathers? Well, here it is:
There was this loving grandfather who always made a special effort to spend time with his son's family on weekends. Every Saturday morning he would take his 5-year-old granddaughter out for a drive in the car for some quality time -- pancakes, ice cream, candy-- just him and his granddaughter.
One particular Saturday, however, he had a bad cold and really didn't feel like being up at all. He knew his granddaughter always looked forward to their drives and would be disappointed. Luckily, his wife came to the rescue and said that she would take their granddaughter for the drive and breakfast.
When they returned, the little girl anxiously ran upstairs to see her grandfather who was still in bed. "Well, did you enjoy your ride with grandma?" he asked.
Not really, PaPa, it was really boring. We didn't see a single asshole, queer, lesbian, piece of crap, horse's ass, socialist left wing democrat Obamalover, blind bastard, dipshit, Muslim camel humper or son of a bitch anywhere we went!"
