Manhattan is a mess today.... and my kids vanished...

No it shouldn't, but still freaky coincidence though...

Im a bit confused with the world ending prediction. Was it 6:30PM California Time, or 6:30PM depending on where you live? If so, its May 22nd here in AUS, and is 6:30PM in California in 4 or so hours....

BIRD is the ICAO identifier for the airport beside the volcano not one of our feathered friends...
