Apocalypse watch
One of my favorite cosmic coincidence sites is Goro Adachi’s Etemenanki. (Etemenanki is one of the towers of Babel.) This post connects the showing of a Battlestar Galactica episode about radiation poisoning, solar flares, a Discovery launch, the opening of Mel Gibson’s Apocalypto, the end of the Mayan calendar, the Transit of Venus, the “passing of the torch” from Ronald Reagan to Arnold Schwarzenegger, Deep Impact, the octagonal floor plan of the Dome of the Rock, the Russian spy Litvinenko who died of radiation poisoning, Comet McNaught, Nostradamus, Pink Floyd, the death of Gerald Ford, the execution of Saddam Hussein, 2001: A Space Odyssey and two must-haves of any good conspiracy theory: the Knights Templar and the Book of Revelations.
Mind-boggling entertainment, the start of a migraine, or your signal to drop everything and head for the hills to await the apocalypse?
So if you’re planning on writing the next Da Vinci Code-type bestseller, you know where to rip off your plot.
Has it occurred to you that Transformers has a premise similar to that of 2001: A Space Odyssey, only it’s much less static?
