For those of you who were disappointed because you did not fly away last Saturday, be encouraged that Harold Camping, the California preacher who has made it his life ministry to interpret God's will, has now said that Judgement Day will come on Oct. 21.

Knowing that the date has changed gives all of us a chance to repent for sure now.
Preacher Harold, if he is anything, is an optimist.

Maybe such optimism can rub off on us as we vainly hope that our dire economic times will soon come to an end.

The other thing for sure you can say about the good reverend is that he lives in the right place, right in the middle of the San Francisco Bay area, along with the rest of the fruits and nuts of the country.
