The Mayans weren’t predicting the end of the world with their calendar. They just wanted you to buy the next age’s calendar.
Take, for example, my Justin Bieber 2010 photo calendar. It runs out at the end of March 2011. Am I speeding to the supermarket to stock up on canned corn, Space Shuttle ice-cream […]

We are now competing with Facebook at .01% of their 500 million. And going strong.

The headline reads:
