LOL. They were probably tired of chiseling out all those calendars they made. One of those specials I tried watching said they had calendars for many heavenly bodies orbits, etc., for eons going back and forward! They figured out that 26,000 years ago when the sun and Milky Way central plane and earth were last all aligned as they will be again for the first time 12-21-12 that the earth underwent huge changes due to Sun activity or something. So they deducted that the next time this all happened, which is this Friday, more than likely something big and likely earth-changing will be happening again. And then they made no more calendars anyone has found. Of course, the Spanish might have taken them - they could be out there! They burned most of the Mayan book, etc., because they were sacrilegious, etc.
Anyway, I'm with you. Likely their tired calendar maker just hung up a "Gone Fishin'" sign, got himself a pole and went to the nearest lake, chewed some "funny" leaves and chilled out, deciding it was time somebody else made a calendar or two! Maybe a "
Take This Job And Shove It!" atty got hold of him! Been there myself!
