IXIMCHE, Guatemala (AP) - A whiff of incense, a sputter of candles, a hum of prayer.

Even if you went to the temple the same purification ceremony would be held. You are not a Mayan and either is President Bush

The Mayans killed themselves after they took a liking to human flesh.

Hey dud, the Mayans have been dead for hundreds of years and your forefathers were the ones that killed them.

I loved Jon Stewart's take on it:
