A drinking song for the end of the world

Just in time for the Apocalypse, the ever-charming singer/songwriter Jill Tracy is offering (temporarily, which, if the world is coming to an end, goes without saying) a free download of “Doomsday Serenade.” So, keep the absinthe flowing and sing along as frogs rain down and the sun grows cold. Rapture, after all, does not mean the same thing to all of us. Should we all survive to see Sunday, the hangover might be bad enough to make us wish Armageddon really had come, but at the very least you will have a lovely song to play until the next time someone cries out that the sky is falling. 


Jason Henninger is optimistic and made plans for Sunday.

I just don't understand why this story got legs. Some marginal kook made a wacky prediction and every media outlet (even science fiction publisher blogs) has decided to obsess over it. I guess it plays well with their "all religious people are dumb and worthy of scorn" stereotype. Why give the nutjob the time of day?

Because unlike all the other kooks, he specified the day and hour it would happen, so he can be easily proven wrong.
