Ah today I just feel like making fun of a bit of Mongolian current events. I cant be too specific due to the random and rumorous nature of the whole earthquake hype here in Ulan Batar. Some Lama of great importance said that there would be an earthquake yesterday, April 28th, 2010 and it would destroy the city. Ha. Yesterday aparently was wrong, so its happening today, April 29th. For some odd reason, I'm not afraid. I have the feeling that IF I do die today, it wont be in an earthquake. Probably a drunk driver or perhaps a sporatic case of bubonic plauge. For weeks now people have been moving out into the countryside, moving into gers and out of apartments in anticipation of the big day. Sadly for those who might capitalize on disaster hypes such as Y2K or 2012, business isnt going to continue. Oh well. I love when people say, today's the day! Its the end of the world! Too bad people have forgotten the classic piece of literature... "88 reasons why Christ will return in 1988". OR better yet, the sequel... 89 reasons. Haha.
When the end comes, none of us are going to see it coming... Until then. Have a nice day.
