MERINDA, Mexico - Dec. 21 started out as the prophetic day
some had believed would usher in the fiery end of the world.
By Friday afternoon, it had become more comic than cosmic,
the punch line of countless Facebook posts and at least several dozen T-shirts.
The doomsayers who had predicted apocalypse were
nowhere to be seen. Instead, people showed up in T-shirts reading "The
End of the World: I Was There."
At the ruins of the ancient Mayan city of Chichen Itza,
thousands chanted, danced and otherwise frolicked around ceremonial fires and
pyramids to mark the conclusion of a vast, 5,125-year cycle in the Mayan
calendar.
