Signs the Apocalypse is Upon Us

When I woke up today, I realized I hadn't passed in my sleep, which was something of a relief.  I got up, sat in front of the television set and was amazed at the complete lack of entertainment at 8:00 a.m.  I realized then that the end must be near.  If you don't believe me, then take a look at the signs...(and use the links to verify that I am not crazy - the world is!)

11.  North Korea says cause of loss to U.S. Women's soccer team was due to lightning; Kim Jong-il says it's the same reason he's so ugly.
12.  Malaysia airlines bans babies from being seated in first class;  US airlines ban Alec Baldwin from first class after embarrassing commercial.
13.  Billy Ray Cyrus fears Miley will be attacked by Satan while music lovers around the world cover their ears as Miley's voice makes their heads hurt like hell.
