“The Mayan calendar didn’t go past Dec. 21, 2012. There is one problem with the Mayan prophesy. It is crap.

But let’s listen to the wacko locked in the basement with 500 pounds of spam because he knows what is going to happen!” – Craig Ferguson

“Well, we got a lot to worry about. In nine days, fiscal cliff. I woke up this morning thinking, Wait a minute. Five days until the fiscal cliff? Where is Superman?” – Jay Leno
