YES!!! There is a God!!! His Son Jesus Christ will be coming some day soon. You CAN prepare for y2k. You can NOT prepare for Hell, because THERE you will not be able to bring ANYTHING with you. Hell will be for all eternity, y2k will not last forever. Only through Salvation can you have eternal life in Heaven...for ever and ever and ever. And that Salvation can only be found in the Savior Jesus Christ. This is the ABSOLUTE TRUTH. Regardless of what happens because of y2k, there will come a day when EVERY one of us will bow before God. Those who have a personal relationship with Jesus Christ and are Born again as the Bible clearly states will be in Heaven for all eternity. Those who have rejected Jesus Christ will spend eternity in Hell. This IS the ABSOLUTE TRUTH. So don’t just prepare for y2k, but prepare for that day before the Lord by making your decision TODAY while there is still time. God is in control of ALL things and y2k included! Praise the Lord, He loves us and He created us for Himself. He was here LONG before we were ever even thought of and He ALWAYS will be!

There just ain’t no escaping Y2K. Ashton & I have a new hospice job coming up, so thought we’d totally blob at a movie -- comedy -- which we rarely do. We had to go to the mall anyway to catch the *incredible* sale on long underwear (clearance 80% off the sale stuff that’ll keep us warm next winter :) So we went to the mall theater on economy hour and saw “Office Space.”
Guess what? The whole movie is actually about Y2K! No hint of it in the review. We’re just sitting there saying “This can’t be happening ...” The movie is sophomoric, stupid, funny, not quite a release because it shows exactly why Y2K is going to throw us all in the garbage bin. Toast. Flaming toast. Don’t think it was meant to turn out that way but the writer included all the points the geeks have been warning Yourdynamites about, in a goofy visual fluff movie. Wonder how many casual viewers will see it? The audience was laughing more than we were.
