So we’re nearing the end, and I expect we’ll see lots more of these types of things, but yet another mountain (this time in Argentina) is closing for the Mayan apocalypse.

 

“The invitation, signed off simply by “EBR” continued: “We will abandon our impure flesh and transport our spirit through the inter-dimensional portal which will open at 21:00 on 21/12/12. Unite with the Army of Light which will save all humanity!””

I’m pretty sure that’s a direct comment on the fact that the Mayan Ball League will be holding its one final exhibition game, ending a nearly two thousand year old labor dispute between the owners and players. Take that, NHL donkeys, holding up their own league.

And you can read all about the events leading up to this historic lockout in “The History of the Mayan Ball League” (or as an iBook), of course.
