I woke up this morning and to my dismay ... the world was still here. How could the Mayans and Hopi's be wrong?  How could Nostradamus and all those other psychics be so off.

My theory on the Mayans is a simple one. Late in their history the Mayans started a grizzly practice of human sacrifice to appease the gods.  Apparently the fellow working on the calender, after revealing his predictions, fell into disrepute with the Mayan chief and was placed on the to-be-sacrificed list. He never had a chance to finish his dark predictions by writing how great the world will be having been scared into near hysteria. No more bank fraud, murder, war or famine. We would finally learn to get along ...  right.  The down side of this is we are still in a state of hysteria and will soon start pillaging and looting abandoned stores.  So ... it becomes true in spite of the Mayan chief's attempt to correct it.

Second, even simpler explanation.

The calendar guy was old and lifting those heavy stones around with the added stress of a 'deadline' caused an unsafe rise in blood pressure and he had a stroke / heart attack.  He either died and was unable to finish it OR his stroke was so bad he was unable to speak or move.  The Mayan chief misinterpreted this as a divine curse and immediately started the government's human sacrifice program (HSP).

Whatever the reason ... I am sure upper management had something to do with it. Working at Wal-Mart really does open the eyes.
