In response to a request by Wombels, I am going to break the number one rule of blogging and post two posts within an hour of each other. I apologize, but this issue is a burning one, and I have to get these invites out so people have time to plan their costumes and pick a sober cab.
According to reliable Mayan sources, on December 21, 2012, the world is going to end. And I say, let's go out in style! I am hosting a Doomsday party in that date and you are all invited!
The details:
Date: December 21, 2012
Location: My bomb shelter/bike storage room.
Entertainment: Wombels will DJ.
Dress code: Hazmat suits.
BYOCGAPBTUAT (Bring Your Own Canned Goods And Plastic Bag To Use As Toilet)
We will drink wop out of 20 gallon garbage cans and dance by lantern light. Wombels will either bring a generator to power his sound system, or we'll dance to the AM radio stylings of my hand-crank weather radio! We'll await the end of the world through the night, then go out in the morning to see if the sun rises on December 22.
Apocalyptic appetizers will be served, but you should bring extra stores of canned goods, just in case we are the only remaining survivors.
RSVP is required. You may RSVP by commenting on this post. Space is limited, so reply today!
If you want to know how to REALLY survive the end of the world, read this:

I'm bringing the shrimp dip and the nuclear generator.
With a nuclear generator, we can refrigerate the shrimp dip! Think of the terrible irony of surviving the apocalypse only to die of food poisoning.
http://www.progressiveu.org/blog/ediblewoman
We'll need more food. I can't do the canned food thing, and I'm not a fan of shrimp dip.
Well, you know, since it will be our last meal and all, we should get some good food. I'll bring the PBR. =D

"Democracy works only when you vote. When you don't take the time to vote for the candidate you find the least offensive, you run the risk of electing the candidate you find the most offensive."
But if we get stuck down there for months (until the nuclear dust settles), we'll need non-perishables. Can you do Cheerios?
http://www.progressiveu.org/blog/ediblewoman
I love cereal. I could like off of it. Can't do the super-sugar stuff anymore, but YUM.
This would make a great movie! Of course, just before midnight, we'd HAVE to be listening to REM's "It's the End of the World as We Know It."
-Sonja
"Democracy works only when you vote. When you don't take the time to vote for the candidate you find the least offensive, you run the risk of electing the candidate you find the most offensive."
Let's come up with a play list! Everyone play! When you RSVP, post your favorite apocalyptic song!
http://www.progressiveu.org/blog/ediblewoman
When the rain begins to fall
The last one on the guest list, get’s eaten first!!!
Also, what happens in the nuke shelter, stays in the nuke schelter....lol
"Don't blame me. I voted for Kodos."
Homer Simpson
Will the Mighty Meek Dog be able to take a break from the destruction of the world to attend?
http://www.progressiveu.org/blog/ediblewoman
She isn't personally attending to that. So she will come with her minion, Timid.
"Don't blame me. I voted for Kodos."
Homer Simpson
I'll bring the Twinkies! I might also bring some canned fruit, we wouldn't want to forget one of our basic food groups.
Twinkies, as much as they suck, do last forever. Do the rest of the Hostess brand food-like substances last forever too?
-Sonja
"Democracy works only when you vote. When you don't take the time to vote for the candidate you find the least offensive, you run the risk of electing the candidate you find the most offensive."
I don't know but I can bring the rest of the Hostess foods. It can be our own end of the world experiment!
Did you know it's impossible to grow mold on a twinkie?

Want the highest rated list to change? RATE those blogs, then!
How are you supposed to have cereal without milk. I'll bring the powdered milk and we need some gallons of water.
Can you mix powdered milk with wop? It's vodka-based. Vodka's clear. Good enough, I say! What's your apocalyptic song request?
http://www.progressiveu.org/blog/ediblewoman
Too many bad White Russian nights...
-Sonja
"Democracy works only when you vote. When you don't take the time to vote for the candidate you find the least offensive, you run the risk of electing the candidate you find the most offensive."
Woman cannot live on Twinkies and PBR alone. How will you survive the end times if you won't eat canned goods or vodka?
http://www.progressiveu.org/blog/ediblewoman
I'll bring a few cases of Juicy Juice Cherry and Fruit Punch. That stuff is the best mixer with vodka, rum, gin, anything clear.
-Sonja
"Democracy works only when you vote. When you don't take the time to vote for the candidate you find the least offensive, you run the risk of electing the candidate you find the most offensive."
Vodka would totally curdle the milk. EWWWW!
I will supply the basic necessities:
Guns of all sorts - To kill the walking zombies that will probably occur in case of nuclear fall out
Cookies - To eat when we're feeling sad
Money - In case we're not the only survivors
Nitric Acid (19M) - To dispose of wastes
Shovels - To dig graves, pits, etc
TNT - To dig tunnels
Magnesium Flares - To attract survivors to our positon
Thermite (100 kilos) - To use in case of emergency to kill, destroy bodies, or wate removal
Water Proof Matches - To light the torch
43 1-L Butane Tanks - To fuel the torch
Torch attachment - To kill zombies.

By Cormac McCarthy? You might not want to attract other survivors. They might eat us. But otherwise, all good ideas.
http://www.progressiveu.org/blog/ediblewoman
We need that book and our four legged friends to help us out when intruders come to steal our music CD’s or try to eat us!
Animals know when something is not right, they feel it, they can sense when danger lurks out there in the dark, nothing will sneak upon us when we have our cats and dogs around...
Somebody else will have to supply the animals. My dog is deaf and blind, and will probably not live that much longer. My cat is just an asshat.
http://www.progressiveu.org/blog/ediblewoman
We need pets that are named Godzilla, Rambo, bloodsucker or something similar! Vicious pets that never sleep and don’t care for affection...lol
I'll start breeding one right away.
http://www.progressiveu.org/blog/ediblewoman
There's a Gecko named Godzilla up for adoption at the pet store by my house. He's tiny, but I'm sure we can do something with radiation to help him sprout a bit. I mean, that's how the real one came about, right?
We can just tie him outside during the apocalypse, and go get him after the deed is done. But he might not survive it. Maybe we should get a cockroach instead?
http://www.progressiveu.org/blog/ediblewoman
I think tying him outside would go against the adoption contract. We could tie the cockroach outside to experiment then if the radiation works properly, he'll have food for awhile. Anyone know how to dry cockroach meat?
They also need to require not that much food. We don't need extra mouths to feed.
There may be carnage to devour, though, That would help with clean-up.
Ew. Where is the "threw up in my mouth a little bit" smiley? I've needed that one so many times!
http://www.progressiveu.org/blog/ediblewoman
No kidding! Maybe you should come up with a whole set of new smilies.
I'll do that.
"Don't blame me. I voted for Kodos."
Homer Simpson
Hence the guns, lol.

I'll bring the drugs. There might not be any left after the apocolypse.
Also, I recommend you make sure there's a good amount of people capable of reproduction and willing to do so.
And a source of water. Lots of water. Because we might be in there a while and I'll be damned if I'm going to go through the apocolypse stinky.
I kind of thought the end of the world meant that it would like, END? Like, go boom and explode or something. In which case, going nuclear in the middle of a party sounds pretty cool.
I forgot about reproducing. Most of my friends are lesbians. The ProUers will have to get busy with each other, then.
http://www.progressiveu.org/blog/ediblewoman
...er, we NEED you and your friends to reproduce. It's extremely important that all the intelligent people reproduce, because there's going to be SO FEW intelligent people left. I guess we could stock up on turkey basters?
That's just the kind of creative thinking we need to get through this! We're gonna make it!
http://www.progressiveu.org/blog/ediblewoman
There's a slight possibility I'll be sterile by then. Can I still join the party?
T.k.
We'll need thinkers, so you're in.
http://www.progressiveu.org/blog/ediblewoman
Wow, a chance to survive the end of the world and a compliment.
T.k.
"It's extremely important that all the intelligent people reproduce, because there's going to be SO FEW intelligent people left."
Haha. I'll bring the movie 'Idiocracy' so you can see just how true your statement is in the future. :-)
http://www.progressiveu.org/blog/sawaboof
"...There is a crushing guilt that comes with being a Catholic. Whether things are good or bad or you're simply... eating tacos in the park, there is always the crushing guilt."
-30 Rock-
Reproduction will not be an issue, people tend to become extremely open-minded when facing situations in which numbers around are decreasing...lol.
Our ego’s will break down and therefore unite us in many ways. Being (still) alive will make us to become creative and special...
What drugs are you speaking of? Cause I would think I could more properly cover that, and I got pretty decent creative intelligent genes, inventors, scientists, and gymnists... all three about flexability...
Zeros and ones
Like computers we tick, not only in brain but body..
I'll bring the (legal) drugs. Wouldn't it just suck to live through the end of the world but die because you didn't have antibiotics to deal with a paper cut?
We also need plant seeds for later farming purposes.Cheerios can only sustain us for so long, unfortunately...
Song choice: Schadenfreude, from Avenue Q.

Good point!
We will have to travel to get to the Svalbard Global Seed Vault.

I freaking love Norway! The land of my people. They funded it as a gift to the world community.
*sigh*
http://www.progressiveu.org/blog/ediblewoman
Norwegians are well ahead on many aspects regarding life, social and economical problem solving.
They are all living life within the reality of life. I have only been as far as Sweden. That place is really amazing, it’s like stepping into another human dimension...
You have family there?
Only very distant cousins, whom I have never met. I am an even blend of Norwegian, Finn, and English. As pale as a person can get. I burn if I THINK about the sun!
http://www.progressiveu.org/blog/ediblewoman
You're all crazy! (but, damned, if I'm not just as bad...) I won't be able to make it, but I have a request. For me and my friends, as we'll probably be dead by morning, could you listen to the following three songs?
"Blaze of Glory" by Bon Jovi
"Sound of Silence" by Simon and Garfunkel
"Hair of the Dog" by Nazareth
They aren't quite "end of the world," but they would serve as a good memorial for the other crazy folk who just couldn't get there...
OK, I have these 3 songs, will be happy to play them ;-)
Any reasons you would like to share why you can’t make it that day?
If it’s personal, don’t bother we will understand…
The whole world is crazy…lol
I have a prior engagement (i.e. kidnapping my gf so she can have 24hrs of peace before the world ends).
That, and I have all the navigational skill of a goldfish. lol
Nine Inch nails till the end I got 100 songs, enough for the countdown..
We'd kick it off with "Eraser".... very tribal, and the song is meant to symbolize the human becoming and ending *if you watch the video you'll get me*
And then "The warning".. ect...

Everything, you have done, and will do, is chemically predisposed by matter, even the fact you are reading this message. You make no choices, only perceive a given reality.
Here are the following types of people I've learned that we'll need:
-A doctor
-A fugitive who knows how to think outside the law for the stickier situations
-Someone who knows how to hunt and can see the deeper meaning behind the apocalypse. Can be unpredictable.
-A con person to watch over the medications/supplies
-Someone who is good with mechanics and can mash together everything from radios to eyeglasses
-Someone with a sense of humor (entertainment)
-Someone who can write music (more entertainment)
-An architect in case we need a boat or something.
-A kid who can appear in different places in case we lose someone
-A Scotsman.
If I'm missing anyone, let me know.
I think we can come up with all of these. Look at all you've learned from Lost!
i think the fugitive will be the hardest one to come by. They are, by definition, hard to catch.
http://www.progressiveu.org/blog/ediblewoman
You don't necessarily need a fugitive. Any of the people in my AP Government class would work just fine, as we're very fond of findinig loopholes in the government's legislation (i.e. finding legal ways to be illegal).
I say I'm the fugitive, when it comes to out of the box, illegal deeds, and even power (inventing perpetual motion for power*which I have and will never give to today’s humans*). I could be the fugitive/advisor/philosopher.. its been my fate for as long as I've lived...
We all flock to the mountains in Venezuela which I have calculated*in case of a flood* to be the highest safest point equatorially.
Trust me, if anyone can save the species in a given scenario, its me.

My friend beat ya too it lol, his Bday is 12/12 so 12/12/12 hes having an end of the world party with tiki torches primitive drums and fake human sacrifices. By the way, awhile back when I learned about all of that in depth. I learned there is now a small margin of error in the mayan predictions, due to earths wobble. So I took it upon myself to recalculate the day (which is the galactic center), its actually going to be Dec 23 2012 according to my math. Its suppose to be a flood or the start of catastrophic events, so either a lot of water (in which case I know what elevation to flee to) or a nuclear world wide annilation (which I believe more based on the baktun). On the baktun which has predicted every war and technologic leap, and fall of every empire there is a picture *|* (like a nuke cloud) for the end of the world, as its called “harmonic convergence” where we are all meant to become as one.. The Mayans got these predictions not from the stars as people guess and insinuate but from their God Quetzalcoatl (spelled many ways) who was the messenger to mankind according to them the only one they spoke with. He came down (according to their wall drawings) in a metal ship(pod) which looked just like a rocket, and he came in a metal suit *which is why they confused the Spanish with God*. He told them the future of their evolution and where it was headed.. The baktun is this calendar and you can probly find it if you search it. I did a great deal of research and discovered what I’m telling you, hopefully it can come to some use. I’m kinda a mayan prophecies professor lol… so its funny you brought this up.

I booked the bomb shelter for the 21st. I guess we'll have to make it a two day party!
http://www.progressiveu.org/blog/ediblewoman
This was one of the funnest blog's to read. There was so much interaction and enjoyed reading every next comment. Count me in and I will be bringing all my family so we can all be together the last day. Hope we have lots of snacks, lol.
Non-perishable snacks will be plentiful, so long as everyone brings their share! (See the Hostess conversation above).
And I suppose we'll need water, in addition to the vodka.
http://www.progressiveu.org/blog/ediblewoman
Ok, I will bring water, vodka and cranberry juice coctail.
I will check the Hostess conversation list above and make sure we do not miss out on any good snacks...
I'm in as long as we're not playing "It's the end of the World as We Know It." Maybe once, but after that it might get old.
I'll pitch in my movie collection if those generators mentioned before are up to the task of entertainment. I'm also pretty skilled at mixing drinks. :-) I'll need the alcohol when all the coffee beans of the world are destroyed. :'-(
http://www.progressiveu.org/blog/sawaboof
"...There is a crushing guilt that comes with being a Catholic. Whether things are good or bad or you're simply... eating tacos in the park, there is always the crushing guilt."
-30 Rock-
That is our midnight song. We'll only play it once. It might get too depressing to listen to ever again if the world is, in fact, destroyed. That might hit a little too close to home.
I hadn't thought about coffee beans. ;'(
http://www.progressiveu.org/blog/ediblewoman
maybe we could grow our own. and bake them in the nuclear fallout? It will turn us all into super heroes. I read it in a book so it must be true.
I think I have to go make up an entire webcomic based on getting powers from radioactive coffee beans now...
http://www.progressiveu.org/blog/sawaboof
"...There is a crushing guilt that comes with being a Catholic. Whether things are good or bad or you're simply... eating tacos in the park, there is always the crushing guilt."
-30 Rock-
well just like many others i have heard about this,
but its not really the end, it means that their will be change not the end.
Its believed that the world will turn at a certain angle and some lives will be lost, hopefully its not us!! Still sounds like fun!!
There is actually no way someone can predict what will happen, most amongst us are actually unaware we are all connected to an energy field, believe me when I say, some people are probably going to act real funny, like funny in a non humoristic way.
Therefore it important to sign in for this party and come up with a song which you would like to hear when the music hits the cradle.
If you have a pet that hates affection or to be touched, he is more than a welcome guest too!
Guns and rocket launchers are allowed on site.
I'll bring a disco ball!
And Peeps. Lots and lots of Peeps.
============

I like the thought of the disco ball. That is great!
I love peeps! Especially since they just get better with age. :-)

"...There is a crushing guilt that comes with being a Catholic. Whether things are good or bad or you're simply... eating tacos in the park, there is always the crushing guilt."

How did I forget the disco ball?! I knew there was a reason I like you! You're a thinker!
I can take or leave the Peeps, though. I suppose if we're starving, they'll come in handy...
http://www.progressiveu.org/blog/ediblewoman
We could put them in a microwave and watch them blow up! Hello, post-apocalyptic entertainment!
(I'll supply the microwave as well, if need be)
============

(Latest blog. )
$600 will buy us a lot of entertainment!
http://www.progressiveu.org/blog/ediblewoman
We need more music titles, only a few have brought up some music choices, please stay focused upon the topic!
Who will provide the Woody Allen movies?
Who will go out in the open to see what’s cooking in the neighborhood?
Who is going to organize the laundry days?
Who will (volunteer) provide adequate safety for the females?
Who will paint the walls of the shelter and more important, what color?
How are we going to chose a M/F leader?
What will be our new goals to pursue?
Brains......more brains.......
And no one can go out into the neighborhood for at least two months. That's how long it takes the radiation to come down to a safe level. I will be posting a game plan soon. I've done a ton of reading on surviving a nuclear disaster (inspired by The Road by Cormac McCarthy, which freaked me out). This party has me thinking!
http://www.progressiveu.org/blog/ediblewoman
Cool, lesbians will be more than trigger happy to keep the pigs out…lol
Kiota with an 50cal Barrett sniping out zombies.....yes yes yes
If we stay in for two months we might need some entertainers to keep us from having to organize around the construction of a kindergarten…lol
Let’s paint the walls half pink and blue, just in case…
Looking forward in reading the "survived a nuclear disaster" blog.
:-)
A sly wit!
Now, yo know I'm not big on conscripted gender roles. Can we paint the walls a nice gender-neutral color? Like yellow? It'll make our bunker seem bigger, too.
http://www.progressiveu.org/blog/ediblewoman
I believe we need an artiest that can paint a scenery of a garden with a swimming pool. The ones that go crazy will cool down when they hit the wall of reality…
On the opposite wall a painting of a solid rusty prison cell door, so we will feel more free not having to linger on the other side of that door!
Another wall we can paint the source and essence of life, a seemingly like naked woman running hard through a massive wide field of sunflowers heading her way towards a huge and wild beautiful old forest, so green it brings comfort in our hearts when our minds linger in the past.
I presume there is one more wall that needs some inspiration, anyone?
Yellow is fine, any color which makes us to keep dreaming is fine...
;-)
.
I can paint the garden. I'll put lots of yellow in it. Can I try to paint clouds on the ceiling, too? Or maybe a moon and stars, or half stars and half clouds? If we want the ceiling painted, can someone bring a ladder for me?
"Excellence is the result of caring more than others think is wise, risking more than others think is safe, dreaming more than others think is practical, and expecting more than others think is possible."
Let your imagination guide you,
http://www.muralsyourway.com/garden-wall-murals.cfm
;-)
I think ediblewoman should be the leader. It was after all her idea for the party and she said she was forming an action pan. I couldn't think of someone better than her to lead the group!
But I don't deal with criticism very well, and if there is anything I have learned from watching Lost, it is that the leader always gets bitten in the ass. It happened to both Jack and Locke. I don't think I want to risk mutiny.
http://www.progressiveu.org/blog/ediblewoman
You have a point there. That might not be the best idea after all.
Contradiction is bad on both sides of the coin!
We would not wish Ediblewoman to be in the middle of that, I believe we will for once in our lives, need to stop the gossip, grow ourselves a backbone of reason while creating an understanding which is not putting guild or regret upon anyone’s shoulders…
We need to stay sane of mind within the group, trigger-happy will make sure we keep the right balance overnight…lol
We need to boost this up, lol, there is a lack of interest, maybe they all believe this party was mean as a joke!
It wasn’t a joke, was it?
;-)
If the world is going to end, I am going to party! I'm not going to give my address to a bunch of people I've never met in person, but that doesn't make the party any less real...in our collective consciousness.
http://www.progressiveu.org/blog/ediblewoman
What if I told you we can make it REAL? Therefore not in your shelter, but out in the open....
If the idea is to survive the apocalypse, I think we'll need shelter.
http://www.progressiveu.org/blog/ediblewoman
What the frick people? All of these comments and not a single person has offered to bring chocolate, shit tickets, Bender, stilts or a tank?!?!
What kind of inhumane people are you?!
