What all Bobcats need to know for Thursday, Sept. 24, 2015
Good morning. Here's what you need to know for Thursday, Sept. 24, 2015:
When you step outside this morning, enjoy the fresh air a little more than unusual. It seems you’ve managed to avoid the apocalypse.
Some conspiracy theorists said Sept. 23, 2015 marked the arrival of the antichrist, citing Sir Isaac Newton’s writings on the matter. The Post had received no reports of antichrist sightings in Athens by press time.
Others point to a French dignitary who in May 2014 said the world had “500 days to avoid climate chaos.” In fairness, it was unusually warm for September yesterday.
Others maintain that the Pope visiting the U.S. for the first time yesterday spells doom for us all, especially considering we’ll see our fourth blood moon of the year Sunday, if we last that long.
It should be noted that OU’s football team is still slated to play Minnesota on Saturday at 3:30 p.m. You can catch the game on the Big Ten Network.
