On Get Down With the End of the World: Things are looking up, really!


 
To prepare for the end of the world, I folded my laundry and put it away. I'd hate for future archaeologists who come across my remains to think that I was untidy.

A Mayan elder visited Lake Elsinore Monday to assure residents the end of the world has not arrived.
 
Despite fears by some that Dec. 21, 2012 marks the end of time on the Mayan calendar, Alejandro Cirilo Perez Oxlaj -- otherwise known as Wandering Wolf -- promised an audience of about 75 gathered at The Diamond Club in Lake Elsinore that the world is safe so long as the generations adhere to the tenets of the ancients, which include caring for the planet and practicing peace.
 
Speaking through Peruvian translator Aymar Ccopacatty, Wandering Wolf, 84, told the crowd he lives in Guatemala and was elected by his people to serve as elder. He explained that under the Mayan calendar, earth is entering a sixth sun -- a time of new beginning, not a finale.
 
As for the end of being hype, Wandering Wolf called it nonsense -- an invention of the modern world.
 
"The Mayan calendar has not ended," the elder confirmed for Monday's audience.
