Mark (Matthew, Luke, John) your calendars
This morning I met a woman on the subway who called herself "The Prophet of L.A." and she had a message.She stood at one end of the car and announced:
"On July 7 at 7 p.m. Jesus will appear in the skies. It will be the end of the world but He will help the world."
She then made her way down the car, repeating the message in Spanish and English.
Because I have an apocalyptic air about me, she stopped in front of me.
"People need to be ready for the message," she said to me, though she didn't look me in the eye.
"7 a.m. or p.m.?" I asked, because one is the seventh hour of the day and the other is the nineteenth. I mean, Jesus.
"On July 7 at 7 p.m. Jesus will appear in the skies. It will be the end of the world but He will help the world," she repeated.
I had reached Wilshire Boulevard. March 7. It was the third stop on the seventh car, true, but it was nine o'clock in the morning.
(Regardless, the escalators ran with blood.)
