    Even if they didn't find that, I never really got why people would think it wouldn't be logical for any calendar to have an end date. And why that wouldn't also be the end of the world.

    Oh comon, why spoil the fun? I remember the Y2k scare, you can have alot of fun when everyone thinks the world is going to end. Even more fun when it does end.

    Yes, not the thick, lush mane I use to turn heads with, but it has come back and still not much gray! I keep it shorter now, too.
