Rapture happens at 6:00PM ET USA
5.21.11 12:00AM ET US by Q3 – while I was still here.

Update --- 6:00PM EDT --- the world did not end.

To celebrate the EOTW…….
R.E.M. - It's The End Of The World
www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z0GFRcFm-aY

It’s gonna be one hot party for those of us left behind!!

More Than 40 Percent of Americans Believe the Rapture Is Coming
Link: www.good.is/post/more-than-40-percent-of-americans-believe-the-rapture-is-coming/
(Of course, since only 48% of Americans believe that Evolution is a good explanation for the existence of man, is this really a surprise?)

Now, I would be just fine if the Rapture happened and all these believers where sucked up to the heavens. The planet would be a lovely place and there would be no more traffic jams (except in San Francisco).

Well, if the world is ending, I think I will spend the day listening to my favorite music – even if listening to that gay propaganda ensures me a one-way ticket to the fiery depths.

What Happens if Pets Survive Rapture?
Link: www.chicagonow.com/blogs/steve-dale-pet-world/2011/05/what-happens-if-pet-survive-rapture.html

Well, maybe now I CAN get that new stereo!


So let me just say – if the world is gonna end, I will party like it’s 1999! Or is that 2012?? (So many end-of-the-world date – it is just too confusing!)


What Music Videos Have Taught Us About Surviving the Rapture
Leah Collins, May 20, 2011

If certain doomsday prophets are correct, that could be the day the music dies.

You, too.

Plus everything on the planet.

If those jerks are right -- jerks who dare contradict the teachings of blockbuster 2012 -- we'd best use our last remaining hours wisely.

Like, by watching music videos, for instance.

Many a pop star has re-enacted the apocalypse. And as such, there are lessons to be learned. Here are just five notes we'll be taking to heart on Judgment Day.
...

2. Make Friends With John Cusack And/Or Adam Lambert

(Adam Lambert, "Time For Miracles")

If we learned anything from the movie 2012, it's that these two are the only people on the planet who could possibly walk faster than a tsunami/earthquake/volcano/you name it.

The Top 10 'American Idol' Performances Of All Time
Posted Fri May 20, 2011 12:23pm PDT by Lyndsey Parker in Reality Rocks

Here are a few highlights – all the Adam bits……

1) Adam Lambert - "Ring Of Fire"

This was probably the most polarizing performance on "Idol," and definitely the most exciting. Love him or hate him, Adam knew how to get people's attention, sometimes get people downright angry, and make those who were faint of heart and/or feeble of mind squirm in their support hose--all very good things in the world of rock and pop. On this fateful night, Adam took a strong stance, making it clear that he planned to stay true to himself, even if that meant freaking out Randy Travis with his goth manicure, or refusing to "go country" on Opry Night (though I think black-clad country maverick Johnny Cash would have appreciated this remake). Many Glambert performances--"Mad World," "Tracks Of My Tears," "Whole Lotta Love"--could've made this list, but "Ring Of Fire" is the one that really put him on the glittery map.

7) Adam Lambert & Allison Iraheta - "Slow Ride"

"Idol" duets can be a hokey affair, but Season 8's resident rockers were so awesome on this Foghat stadium anthem, many fans would have been happy if "Addison" had just tied for first place and recorded a full album of duets together. Sadly, this did not come to be--incredibly, Allison was voted off the day after this performance--but "Idol" fans at least got to see Lambert and Iraheta recreate this rock 'n' roll magic onstage every night on the Idols Live Tour. Personally, I'm still waiting for that duets album.

VERY HONORABLE MENTIONS:
Brooke White - "Love Is A Battlefield"
Chikezie - "She's A Woman"
Jennifer Hudson - "Circle Of Life"
Josiah Leming - "Grace Kelly"
Lilly Scott - "Fixing A Hole"
Norman Gentle - "And I Am Telling You"
Siobhan Magnus - "Paint It Black"
...and everything Adam Lambert ever did

Sauli's first radio show


@riinukka: Awesome @tiiqqu has made a transcript of Sauli's Radio Aalto report: bit.ly/moGrMA
less than a minute ago via Echofon


On Friday 20th May 2011, @ghosst_ said:

I made some proper translations of those bits about paps & A&S's size difference, Sauli's way to speak is so funny Didn't edit.. just wrote what i heard.

7.52-8.30 "Well yeah paparazzis have been this week like.. we go to eat lunch and they're everywhere. Or I just went to add more color on my tat and they came there too.. or actually we were there together. Now you can really understand how there are new pap pics from the US all the time , the paps are everywhere and you need to be a bit sneaky to get away from them. Well of course I have no problem when I'm somewhere just by myself.. But then again people know if i'm out with ~someone else then you just need to..well.. move a little faster lol"

8.30-9.22 "Oh I almost forgot i needed to say this.. it was funny when i read.. hmm which Finnish media was that.. Mtv3's entertainment news! "CHECK OUT HILARIOUS PICS: Sauli and Adam's size difference!!" was the headline and I was like oh shit now they made me sound like some pygmy in there.. But well..if you take a look at those pics carefully.. and now there are new pics already where you can see that the size difference isn't THAT big really. in those "hilarious pics" I was walking a bit behind (Ellen: mmm-m) and the ~other one may have a little bit bigger hair.. And you can also take a look at those shoes of Adam's.. they may have an ~inch more of a heel than my shoes.. Maybe I should wear some high heels next time too.. I can surprise you next time and wear some stiletto heels and some nice summer dress"



Translation – Adam’s fans do not gamble

Thunder Valley narrowed its target age demographic after observing crowds for last year's inaugural outdoor season, begun as part of a celebration of its new hotel and spa. Glam rocker Adam Lambert's fan base skewed too young for a casino crossover and Tony Bennett's senior fans chose to go home, not burn the midnight oil at a blackjack table.
