Doomsday!

Jesus Christos! Corpus Christi!

It is official; the Norwegian government has excavated the former apartment / love nest of Superman, and is now using it to store seeds.

No, not those kinds of seeds. That’s in Holland. It’s all the same continent though. Anyways, reports from around the world indicate that the Norwegian government financed the construction of the “Doomsday Vault” in order to fill the space with seed collections from around the world. It was done at the bare bones price of about 9.4 million American greenbacks.

The “vault” itself has been built into the side of a mountain that borders the North Pole. The storage space will be serving as the ultimate safety net against any type of human errors, such as war and poverty. It will also work great against world-wide crop changes, effects of globalization, global warming, and any other natural disaster.

So far, over a million seeds have been placed in the 427 foot deep icy chamber, with the hope that they may never be needed in an uncertain future. The United Nations also played a roll in the operation since 2004 by supplying much needed funding to the project, in order to promote crop diversity. The majority of the seeds are from plants that sustain global food supplies. There have also been calls for other types of plant life as well.

This is not the first project of its kind, as there is a similar seed bank in Sussex, England. Not to mention the unknown paranoid billion/multi-millionaires out there who have constructed their own Doomsday survival chambers. For when the day comes that the seas boil and the heavens fall those guys will be ready with a year supply of Dinty Moore stew and Easy-Mac. Plus, the US Government certified duct-tape and plastic wrap.

Rest assured the original Doomsday is still strapped to that meteor and hurtling through space so he won’t be threatening our global food supplies. Thanks again Superman. Or was it The Eradicator?

    um I’m thinking if there was a meteorite the size of Asia, that it’d have a very good chance of being seen long before it was close enough to be quite dangerous.
