The virgins are trimming their wicks, and filling out their brackets.

Building on the idea of imminent apocalypse mentioned previously, I think it's time to start an End of the World Pool, because if people are dying by the millions, why not take the edge off of the horror by savoring a few dollars...that you can promptly burn in order to warm your cardboard shack and cook the toddler you stole from the refugee camp that day.

Some possible squares:

Nuclear annihilation (can't go wrong with the old standards)

"Day After Tomorrow"/"Waterworld"-style global-warming related environmental catastrophe

Terrorist-released biological attack

Bush-initiated economic collapse leading to social breakdown

Peak Oil Crisis (oil prices continue to skyrocket, leading to wars and the aforementioned economic collapse)

Avian Flu (That's where my money be at)

The Rapture (you can get odds with this one)

Zombies

Feel free to lay your money on any of the above or your very own.
