The aircraft carrier was the John F. Kennedy and according to Wikipedia it’s currently in the Naval Inactive Ship Maintenance Facility in Philadelphia. Which makes it kind of funny to see it crashing into the White House from a tidal wave coming up from Chesapeake Bay….

I thought you were from DC I’m originally a NoVa kid. There is a huge naval ship yard in the Chesapeake. I didn’t think it was an aircraft carrier as much as an old ship, but I guess I wasn’t looking that close.

Now this is a review. I had one question. Where do you think the aircraft carrier and tidal wave that takes out the White House came from? Are there carriers in the Chesapeake? Could that carrier have ridden the wave from the Atlantic?

Best guess?

I saw the film. It was marvelous. But it still keeps me in the conclusion whether we are dying in 2012 earth disaster or its just a fake fictioius movie. The film really needed a better ‘end’ just to ensure us whether we are safe or not.

If you ask any modern day Mayans, they’ll tell you the world isn’t going to end. I saved a link to an AP article to give to my class next year actually, which of course now I can’t find.

Basically the Mayans actually had 2 different calendars that ran at the same time, so any given days could be refered to as two different names and numbers. Every so many years they resynched, and every so many years certain days overlapped. Basically 12, 21, 02 is one of these special days that the two calendars overlap on and i believe the entire cycle starts anew.

It’s also the last recorded date they’ve found so far in the ruins I believe, so people have jumped on it as the end of the world (but in the mayan universe the world has “ended” and “begun” several times before.

I saw a show about 2012 on the Discovery Channel or something and it freaked the living beejeezus out of me. So is the world gonna come to an end on 2012 or what? What did you teach your class and did they all crap their pants after? Or do you have a more level headed insight into this? If you’d calm my nerves down for me, that’d be much appreciated!!

I love disaster movies. One of my favorites is “The Day After Tomorrow”. I can watch that movie over and over. The only problem I have with them, is I get paranoid for about a week that whatever disaster I just watched really will happen
