I knew I wasn't crazy to build that bomb shelter under the house...

A spy satellite hurtling towards earth does not frighten me as much as the phrase: Appropriate government agencies are monitoring the situation,"

for love of my fellow man, I designate myself as the official target. I will wear magnets (and , of course, a tin foil hat) until my sacrifice is complete.

You're wonderful, Jazzzz, to take one for the team. :)
I read about this yesterday, but since we don't have basements here in su.so.ca., I really don't know what to do.....

This has already been done before. Doesn't anyone remember the first season of Northern Exposure where Maggie's ex-BF got waxed by one of these?

... um ... " ... ten times less debris ... "
Unfortunate that these "scientists" or "journalists" never bothered to learn proper usage to express the concept of "lesser amount or degree" ...
This would mean that there would be 1000 percent LESS ... um ... *brain hurts* ... nevermind ...

I bet they say it has "hazardous material" in it so no one will go close enough to see all the pictures of naked women on it.

Yay, me! I've hit the big 3 in posts. Dave even used my suggested headline. And I'm LTTG as usual.

Do you think Bruce Willis is up to doing "Armageddon II" ... ?

Wrong
impossible to suspend disbelief disaster of a science fiction flickmovie star, SH. This job calls for Clint Eastwood, James Gardener, Tommy Lee Jones and Donald Sutherland.Oh, and a script that by contrast could make an episode of 24 look believable. That ought to to it.

WD - well, clearly they can get a staff of writers for that by making a quick trip to the zoo.

Oh it's okay...these things land in deserts or places like rural North Dakota.
*thinks for a moment*
Oh sh*t, I live in rural ND.
