I keep an eagle eye out for harbingers of doom. A lot of my personal work is about either catastrophe or apocalypse, so in a way, it’s my job. My future has never been the flying cars, white robes and food pills version, I’m expecting to trudge through middle age in a world of food and water riots, amid the Balkanization of the United States, as we enter a new dark age.
Rice prices have hit records, and for the past month there have been several reports of riots and protest related to increases in the price of rice in Asia (70%), and now Sam’s Club and Costco are limiting (read rationing) the amount of bulk rice that customers can buy. Even if it’s just meaningless hype, Why can’t I get the garbage truck/people catcher from Soylent Green out of my mind today?

What is this, the 100th monkey phenomena? My pal Nazz Nomad just posted something similar:

Yeah it’s the end times alright. We ALL gonna die, and real fucking soon. I say head for them Pt. Fermin bunkers, and quick.
Are you callin’ me a monkey?
Hey, I don’t just work next to a bunker for the view. I’m in it for the crisis!
This was foretold by the Revelations of John in the Bible, from the Lord God Himself! If you consider the book of Revelation you will see that this is a definite sign of the End Times. America has strayed too far from its Christian heritage and foundations. Only with a donation to my website at http://www.movieguide.org can you and your family expect to be spared the horrors to come in the Apocalypse.
I’ll bring my hand cranked machine and after the pockyclipse we can sew.
