Dear PoPville – Ethics for the Rapture?

“Dear PoPville,

So this Saturday is supposed to be Judgement Day – AKA “The Rapture” when all the Believers get sucked up to heaven. I have some questions. Once my neighbors vanish, am I allowed to go into their houses and take their stuff? Can I just move into an empty raptured house? Do you think I should stay off the Beltway on Sunday? All those empty cars are going to crash! Do Raptured people leave their clothes behind? I know a woman with some dynamite designer clothes – if I follow her around is that considered stalking?

Seriously though (yeah right) are there any end-of-the-world festivities going on this weekend?”

I know Duffy’s (a PoP advertiser) is having a Doomsday happy hour:

DoomsdayHappy Hour!
This Saturday 5pm to 8pm

What a better way to mark the beginning of the end of the World than with a great Happy Hour!

All Beers Half Price til 8pm!
Wings Half Price til 8pm!

Duffy’s Irish Pub
2106 Vermont Ave NW

Anyone know of any other fun doomsday events/specials for Saturday?

For many remote workers, a messy home is distracting.

You’re getting pulled into meetings, and your unread emails keep ticking up. But you can’t focus because pet hair tumbleweeds keep floating across the floor, your desk has a fine layer of dust and you keep your video off in meetings so no one sees the chaos behind you.

It’s no secret a dirty home is distracting and even adds stress to your life. And who has the energy to clean after work? That’s why it’s smart to enlist the help of professionals, like Well-Paid Maids.
