10:50 AM -- Attention, wagerers! BetUS.com has "posted 10-1 odds that there will be an Apocalypse on 6-6-06."

BetUS's resident theologian elucidates:

“There is much debate over the interpretation of the Bible, especially over Revelation, but if we are to interpret 2000 as the end of the millennium, 6-6-06 could be the end of the world,” stated Matt Ross spokesperson for BetUS.com. “We are in the middle of a war, there have been earthquakes, tidal waves, and hurricane season is now upon us. No one could possibly know what can happen next”.

How true. When before have we ever seen wars, earthquakes, and hurricanes all in the same year!!?? Well... What we do know is there'll be an endless supply of credulous nincompoops -- and oleaginous opportunists ready to take their money.
