New Rule: Skeeter Davis Alert™

Here's another tabloid category I can check on. The end of the world! I could choose R.E.M. or Prince or many other singers to give the name to the category, but here's Miss Skeeter Davis being straight up country and not even a little bit crossover singing her great hit End of the World on some old hillbilly music show.

Matty Boy, did you choose Miss Skeeter over Michael Stipe or The Purple One because of her wonderful hair?

Hypothetical question asker, you know me too well.

So anyway, whenever one of the tabloids predicts the End Times, I'll be sure to mark it down here at It's News 2 Them™, giving the name of the publication, the date of the prediction and the date of the publication.

Expect a lot of these to be in the Sun, which has taken over from the dearly departed Weekly World News as the tabloid of record for crazy ass prophecy. Unlike WWN, the Sun is published in color, which I guess is a point in its favor, but it will never tell you about the life and times of Bat Boy or the alien that endorses presidential candidates. Dang, I miss those guys!
