DU Lounge Check-in: Post here if you haven't been raptured yet
Want to find out how many we lost to the Rapture.

BTW, I watched the movie "Red State" last night. I loved the ending - that was good Kevin Smith irony! Michael Park was amazing and should be considered for an Oscar!

1. Still here, and I have a gig tonight from 8-12.
If Das Rapture occurs at midnight, we won't have to do any encores; however, if the crowd is lame, is there anyway it might occur before the third set?

2. Well if the concert is poorly attended you can blame the rapture
that might work

5. Slaughter Rule: when the band outnumbers the audience, you can bail on the gig!
Woo-hoo! Got paid in advance, too!

11. ***UPDATE*** Just got a call from our bandleader - gig has been moved up, now 7:00-11:00!
(insert spooky music here)

Maybe he knows something, but I really don't want that Rapture shit happening on the drive home - the roads at that hour are already filled with weaving drunks and idiots (but if I see a nice, post-Raptured Mercedes wagon I'm snagging it)!

3. Rapture's for sissies. I hope they all got the fuck out of here this morning.
Paradise on Earth is a rapture that really DOES take up all of the whacko rapture freaks.

8. Well, hey, the Rapture could happen any minute now.
I'd rather stay here. Frankly, if the fundies all go away, how could this be Hell on Earth? Sounds more like Heaven to me.

13. Must have been a whole bunch
Lynn's had this thread up most of the morning and not many people still here,

I must be one of the unlucky (or lucky)ones.

14. What time is it supposed to happen?
Maybe it won't be until later today. There's still hope.

Or not.

19. Still waiting. I've been wearing a bike helmet all day cause I'm still indoors.
I want the going-through-the-roof part to be as smooth as possible.

I've got a video cam handy so I can get some space shuttle type footage going up.

Could be any minute now. Fingers crossed.

29. WTF?? I got raptured TWICE. Last week I got dropped in San Antonio,
and then today I got dropped back home in Maryland. This rapturing shit saved me and my company a bundle of money. Kind of like getting teleported!!

:D

38. I was raptured but guess what happened?
Edited on Sat Oct-22-11 07:34 AM by NNN0LHI
I went straight up into the sky and when I got to the destination someone asked me what religion I was. I told them I was a recovering Catholic and they threw me back. So here I am.
