pg.to - halted ... ? ... huh, i was thinking earlier of bidding a few more

One of the three young men who around 1950, give or take a couple years, protected one of the principal maya ruinas from looters, by taking turns standing guard with a single old shotgun, and who around that time introduced to the site several danish academics who advanced research considerably, was the man who introduced me to my wife, who is approx five eighths maya ... he still was guiding there as of three years ago, don't know about now ... speaks eight languages, has guided presidentes of France, Japan, many other countries, unique individual, ambivalent approach to Truth, claims to have trained at Brownsville Tejas for the USAAF in '44-'45, when, a very little research shows, he was a little short of fourteen on VJ day, lol ... has several wives of record, not hard to do in those days, as pre-computers the civil registries of estados had no contact with each other ... [edit] oops, forgot point - he says 21/12/12 is simply the end of one 'long count', next day [or next minute] is the beginning of the next, the whole circle of highly interesting people around him has always been amused by the attention it gets, and quite pleased overall, as it's brought them a lot of business

rim.to - yeah i took a few teevee, not many, don't want to jinx the thing ... mostly this period is about being positioned for the end of the two tax years, and being able to put five grand in each tfsa prontito on new year's day ... and just basically waiting to see what pops first

Remember Koidu, how Dave always liked its potential, well some outfit name of Octea has it now, and it's got 'foreigners holed up' - bbc.co.uk

Small world - another fellow who also knew Sierra Leone, had a few years before his experience there made a trip into maya country, wrote on it as his only non-fiction work, this book brought a lot of the early tourists to the ruinas area, especially europeans, my friend mentioned in previous post would have to locate various points mentioned in it for them, and explain how the map in the original hardcover was a little bit wrong, or incomplete -
en.wikipedia.org - author is catholic, think they have an Armageddon myth too, but don't appear all that religious about it any more

[edit] - jrhana gone - Message 28614584 ... it's a piecemeal thing, we all get a personal doomsday
