The End of the World

[BaalChatzaf]

God has finally had enough of us and He announces in Jerusalem that world will end three days hence. Various newspapers and wire services pick up the story and report it.

Jerusalem Post: (In Hebrew) Anakhnu hetavadnu.

New York Post: We're Toast (in 120 point type).

Billboard: God to close show in three days.

Boston Globe: It's Ovah! (in 120 point type).

New York Times: It has been reported by hitherto reliable sources that the world will end in three days.

Wall St. Journal: Markets will close permanently in three days. See section B: Domestic Finances.

Washington Post: World to End in Three Days; Women and Minorities will be affected the most. Full story in Section B.
