This is as cool as it gets Jeff, very well done!! More serious stuff to be worried about than the Mayan calendar, like how long the line will be at the coffee shop, lol... #10471820

It's a terrific photo...I thought it might be Santa from the thumbnail. I can't wait until December 23. Between the Mayan thing and the theory that December 22 sun flares will cause a major catastrophe with all the electrical grids on the planet...my spouse believes both--- I JUST LONG to see the sunrise on Sunday. #10471853
