Mayan Calendar Prophecy Demystified

Apparently, there has been some kind of mix up with the whole "2012 Mayan Calendar" thing.

A new translation of an ancient Mayan text -- "The Axhumuchicha Diaries" -- has just revealed that the word was actually "colander," as in the bowl-shaped thingee with holes on the bottom that allows a person to drain spaghetti.

The translator of the ancient text, J. Templeton Edwards, a semantical historian and world-renowned expert on Mayan literature, recently noted on a December 21st webcast:

"After years of assiduous research, I have come to understand that, approximately 2,100 years ago, there was a severe shortage of Mayan COLANDERS -- an occurrence that moved one of the most beloved Mayan Emperors of the time -- Xytyl Myzucytl -- to publicly bemoan the 'end of the Mayan colander.' Alas, in the years that followed, the emperor's comments were poorly translated -- leading, unfortunately, to the recent glut of END OF CIVILIZATION, AS WE KNOW IT books that have hit the market."

Whew! Mystery solved!

Mitch Ditkoff has several calendars in his house -- all with quotes from Rumi, who, as legend has it, made a mean marinara sauce. Mitch also has two colanders. One of his colanders looks as if it pre-dates Mayan times. The other one is new and dent-free. Mitch much prefers the old one.
