It's the end of the world as we know it

And I feel fine.


So this calendar predicts the end of the world. Supposedly. Thinking back, I probably should have mentioned before "doomsday" that the calendar was out of alignment, and apparently the 21st was never meant to mean the end of the world. Just good to know. More importantly, I want to mention the fact that THE MAYAN CALENDAR LOOKS KIND OF LIKE AN OREO.

.

Both are in their way, cultural marvels, and the pinnacles their civilizations.
Besides, an Oreo could never mean the end of the world. Well, maybe.
To finish off, REM. Sort of, the world as we know it didn't end, so we all feel fine.

One Week - Barenaked Ladies

I heard this song about 12 years ago (and for me that's like forever). For years I could only remember part of the tune, and the lyrics:

"Chickity China the Chinese Chicken, you have a drumstick and your brain stops tickin;"

From that point onwards, no matter how many drumsticks I consumed, my brain kept tickin'. I could not remember anything else about the song, which anyone who's had the experience would know. It drove me crazy, sort of one of the unexplained parts of the world along with Bigfoot and Nessie.
One day I was on the internet and remembered and googled the lyrics, as stupid as it sounds. Try righting chickity china the chinese chicken into Google without it seeming stupid.
But I found it.
