I sure hope he tests that out, because I'm pretty sure its top heavy.
That sucker is going to go right over then straight to the bottom.
Not if he puts me in the bottom.
My Chinese nickname is Hung Low...but, yeah, my gut does add some extra weight too.
After weeks of reviewing the data I'm going to have to agree with Defcon on this one

BYOB of course.
12 And God said, “This is the sign of the covenant I am making between me and you and every living creature with you, a covenant for all generations to come: 13 I have set my rainbow in the clouds, and it will be the sign of the covenant between me and the earth. 14 Whenever I bring clouds over the earth and the rainbow appears in the clouds, 15 I will remember my covenant between me and you and all living creatures of every kind. Never again will the waters become a flood to destroy all life. 16 Whenever the rainbow appears in the clouds, I will see it and remember the everlasting covenant between God and all living creatures of every kind on the earth.”

That is incorrect.
There are prophecies that are contained the in the various Codices that do appear to predict the “end of this world”.

You have some links for me to read? As funny as some of this 2012 stuff is, I do enjoy me some doom.
Dresden Codex
The Dresden Codex contains astronomical tables of outstanding accuracy. It is most famous for its Lunar Series and Venus table.[2] The lunar series has intervals correlating with eclipses. The Venus Table correlates with the apparent movements of the planet. The codex also contains almanacs, astronomical and astrological tables, and ritual schedules.
Archaeology: Apocalypse Soon?
But a menacing scene does appear on the last page of the Dresden Codex, a Maya bark-paper book from the 14th century A.D., depicting destruction by flood. A sky caiman vomits water, which gushes from "sun" and "moon" glyphs attached to the beast's segmented body. Still more water pours out of a vessel held by an old-woman deity, who is suspended in the middle of the frame. And at the bottom, a male deity wields arrows and a spear. Verses from early colonial texts back up the flood story of creation. Curiously, contemporary prophets of doom haven't seized on the flood myth as a mode of destruction, though moviemakers certainly have. Among the vivid special effects in 2012 are tsunamis engulfing the Himalayas and tossing an aircraft carrier into the White House!
Paris Codex
The Paris Codex (also or formerly the Codex Peresianus) contains prophecies for tuns and katuns (see Maya Calendar), as well as a Maya zodiac, and is thus, in both respects, akin to the Books of Chilam Balam. The codex first appeared in 1832 as an acquisition of France's Bibliothèque Impériale (later the Bibliothèque Nationale, or National Library) in Paris. Three years later the first reproduction drawing of it was prepared for Lord Kingsborough, by his Lombardian artist Agostino Aglio. The original drawing is now lost, but a copy survives among some of Kingsborough's unpublished proof sheets, held in collection at the Newberry Library, Chicago.[5]
Madrid Codex
The Madrid Codex is the longest of the surviving Maya codices.[3] The content of the Madrid Codex mainly consists of almanacs and horoscopes that were used to help Maya priests in the performance of their ceremonies and divinatory rituals.
Keeping the Old ways
We were told before Breathmaker returns we will see signs
like people changing to be disrespectful and people doing many
wrong things. You will probably see more hurricanes, tornadoes,
and earthquakes. You will probably see something you’ve never seen
before on this earth because earth is getting hotter. You’ve never seen
certain types of snakes around here before; they will probably be
here. So many things will change, you see. We must keep that and
believe that. So that’s what our people know and always believe—
something’s going to happen someday soon, and they want to make
sure we won’t be something different.
