the rapture?

Last night I took my dog for a walk in the big field behind my house.  It was so still.  No people walking around the neighborhood, no cars driving through.  So quiet, I could hear a train rumbling through town, 6 miles away.  I had been in the basement watching the last episode of Lost (that's for another post) and when I came up, I went out for the walk.  I thought maybe the rapture had finally happened while I was watching Lost, which would have been somewhat apropos.
