Asteroids

Did you guys hear? We all almost DIED!

No, not really. But a big-ass space rock did pass REALLY close to us. Now this isn't as big as the one that nearly hit us back in 1998. Thankfully Bruce Willis saved us from that awful plot-line.

Most people didn't even hear about it until it had already done its fly-by. JPL scientists knew it wouldn't hit us, but they only even saw the damn thing about two days before it passed us by. Just think, a slight shift in gravity thanks to our old pal Jupiter or the Moon could've sent that sucker directly into our ass. (And, with any luck, it would've been pulled into Rosie Odonell's gravitational field and taken her out!)

Kind of makes you think if the public would've been told if it WAS going to hit. I understand it could've turned into a dogs and cats living together mass hysteria type of moment, but it damn sure would've been fun to watch.

Also makes me wonder what I would've done. Not much I would've been able to do in a world in chaos on the brink of total annihilation... I'm not one to go help loot stores, and why would you want a flat-screen TV for two days only? No sense in praying or going to church since, even if there is a G-whiz, no amount of repentance on my part would've gotten my ass into heaven/nirvana/Eden/wherever else.

Maybe I'd just sit outside and look up... just to contemplate my life...

Or I'd throw THE MOST OUTRAGEOUS PARTY EVER!!!

Yep. The party sounds more my speed.
