Which Way To The Apocalypse? - By Mark Morford, SF Gate Columnist

When all the fanatical Christians disappear, will traffic finally improve?

Friday, June 9, 2006


Wait, did I miss it?


Did it happen three days ago, on 6-6-06, a.k.a. Tea Time with the Beast, a.k.a. the Great Day of Reckoning, a.k.a. the National Day of Slayer, all the world crashing down in a heap of hissing steam and belching smoke and balmy gusty breezes sometime around noon just after lunch but not before rush hour and hitting right around siesta?

I might have been napping. Did the Apocalypse finally hit? Did the deep wish of roughly a half-billion zealous believers come to pass and were they suddenly whisked off into the humming glorious divine ether in one big orgiastic load of divine redemption, leaving us heathens and pagans and Wiccans and Jews and Muslims and Buddhists and journalists to fight it out over the last scraps of artisan Gruyère and fine Pinot Noir and gorgeous new Porsche Caymans? I simply cannot be sure. (snip)

1. I was kind of hoping
the suicide rate in the south would spike. But that's just me.

2. He's one of my faves
Like the Rude Pundit, but without the F bombs.
