I've been looking forward to this moment since I was in grade school. I never anticipated that I'd be spending it... sitting at work and doing nothing interesting.

Oh, well. I guess I get a second chance to live it up later tonight, at least if no wet blankets on 24 hour clocks show up.

Thankfully, I was raptured into Heaven back in October, so I don't need to worry about it.

It's Nigel Tufnel Day. These knobs go all the way to eleven!

@1 - So much for a day where I don't think about your cervix.

@5 - There are a lot of knobs around here, and they all go to eleven.

@2 - Luckily it will be 11:11 again 12 hours later so you have the opportunity for a do over, which doesn't often happen in life. Make the best of it!

@3 I like to envision explosions and flying farm animals happening traveling around the world when it hits 11:11 in each time zone.

At 11:11am or pm, for one minute, we will all become ONE with ONE another... it will be miraculous like magnets.

I would like to know what happened on 11.11.1111 11:11 am or pm

@11 - actually, year "11" didn't happen, because the middle east & western world were using different calendar systems during Jesus' lifetime. :>P

I was counting on a sort of rolling rapture that would occur at 11:11 in every time zone, but that doesn't seem to have happened. Or did it.......

Go out at precisely 11:11:11 on 11/11/11 and shake your wallet (or checkbook) at the Sun. If you do, it'll never be empty !
