Members of Panawave Laboratory, a doomsday cult based in Japan's Fukui Prefecture, are hard at work preparing for The End of the World, forecast to occur on May 15th by their ailing 69-year old leader, Yuko Chino.
Just how is the world going to end... this time?
Chino, in what she called her final statement issued on May 5, cryptically said, "It will be caused when electromagnetic waves strike the Japanese archipelago and the delicate gravitational balance between the Andromeda nebula and other nebulas is altered."
I, for one, am glad Chino cleared that up. Damn those wacky planet-destroying nebulas anyway!
Wearing their trademark white garments, because as everybody knows white cloth "shields" one against "harmful electromagnetic waves", the insularly group is spending their final days both in preparation for the end and keeping those darn waves at bay until it comes.
Wouldn't you know it; I only have blue sheets at home. No wonder I've been feeling so woozy lately.
For the next week, Panawave Laboratory members will be:
1. Wrapping trees near their camp in white cloth to deflect electromagnetic waves that they claim have made their leader ill.
2. Keeping police at bay by using mirrors as "shields".
3. Parking their traveling caravan of white vans along Japanese roadsides. At least until the locals ask them to leave, then call the police when cultists don't drive away. After a fierce "mirror battle" with authorities, the cultists will travel on - always searching for that one prime spot of Japanese real estate where electric pylons, which emit lethal leader-killing electromagnetic waves, aren't found.
4. Constructing dome-like structures in Oizumi, Gifu Prefecture, which is the only type of homestead that can withstand up to 15M earthquakes and earth-ending changes in the planet's axis.
5. Selling the populace on dome-living. Asking price per dome is rumored to be million yen each. Hey, it may not have a big backyard or even running water, but it IS Armageddon-Proof!

From the "Whew!" Department...Doomsday Delayed!
Japanese police raid some 12 Panawave Laboratory facilities. Cult members dressed in white turn red with anger...
A 66-year old male, believed to be second-in-command, states, ""We're no harm to society, and regularly report our activities to police. We'll take legal action. We only grow stronger and more powerful whenever we are bashed. Our group will never disband!"
The high-ranking cultist then corrected a prediction that The World As We Know It will end on Thursday. "I think it will be delayed till around May 22."
He thinks? To AROUND May 22? Hey, we ain't wondering when the dry cleaning will be ready, pal! This is the end of the world here!
You'd think he'd be a bit more specific, considering such a thing is, you know, kinda serious and all.
"End of the World? No big whoop. Whenever."
