D. Clark And The Mayan Calendar

Yes...I understand that if you spelled out his first name you would be bleeped. Silly, huh. It didn't occur to me that Mr. Clark passed the year when we're not supposed to have a New Years Eve... but you're right about that prediction. Thankfully, that prediction doesn't hold water with me. I don't believe the world will end in a dramatic and tragic way in December. I believe things are changing and have been changing in a subtle way which may be "the end of the world as we know it." Change is inevitable and often for the best. One change I've noticed is that many people have begun to take the law into their own hands. Another change I'm witnessing is the fact that fewer people are entering into a traditional marriage. For many people...that way of doing things...doesn't make sense anymore. Thanks for a great post and for allowing me to share my perception.

Just think about it we have already had newyears for 2012 next one will be for 2013. CLark was a big Igon for alot of kids RIP

WOW! I hadn't made the connection but I'll just bet you put "End of Days" prognosticators everywhere into a state of panic, or in some cases pure joy. One thing is for sure, if there IS a New Year's celebration it won't be the same and never will be again. Rest In Peace, D1ck Clark; we'll miss you! (Note the "1" in place of the "i"...lol!) Annie

That is an interesting way to look at it. The guy who rings in the new year with us is not going to be here for the new year that the Mayans think is the end of it all. Very interesting. So D. Clark it is.

Let me say the world is not going to end in 2012, earlier also there were many such predictions, which never happened, one thing our play with nature and enviornment will end the world slowly.. moreover even if it ends can we stop it? Happy posting, cheers. Kalyani

Actually the Mayans made no prediction about the world ending in 2012. Their calendar ends in 2012. Some genius in modern times decided that since the Mayan calendar ends in 2012 that must mean the world will end then. No one knows why the Mayan calendar runs till this year and no further. I think the Mayan calender ending is not significant in regards to the end of the world. I think the ancient Mayan's predicted that D. Clark would stop ringing in the New Year and because of that they ended their calender. Maybe Mr. Clark had Mayan blood. Has anyone looked into this? Evidently with the passing of Mr. Clark the Mayans don't think it's worth keeping track of time anymore. Maybe we should follow their lead.

Well that is an interesting thought. I had not considered that, and neither had hubby.

actually, i heard a joke along that lines because he had passed on and was always known for the new years rockin eve along with the mayan calendar, this year must be the end of the world!

Well it's sort of a good insinuation or a coincidence, lol! seriously, Mr. Clark, as i have seen a tribute to him, seems to be an icon in terms of the music industry as he have guested the who's who amongst the list of famous singers. His dedication to his craft is well applauded and admired. As to the Mayan calendar, i simply try to ignore it as much as i can, lol!

I can honestly say that this prediction used to scare the holy moly out of me. But I have researched and read the Bible, and seen some shows on television that all denounce this prediciton as crazy. The Mayans were a bunch of guys with feathers in thier heads that came up with most of their predicitons basically high on acid...anyways what bothers me the most though is the amount of people that are profitting from peoples fears. You have people selling bunkers, books, survival kits, name of it they are selling it. And while I beleive things are changing I don't beleive that it's what was predicted by no means.
