when space debris attacks

When I learned about the meteorite that destroyed some homes in Orissa, India, my first reaction was: "Oh my God! The Pakistanis have mass drivers!"

My next thought was that these homes were playing Dr. Bombay too loudly and somebody didn't like it.

I may need to get out of the house more.


No, it was the Cubbies...

Seen Sunday on Daily Kos:

The Cubs win their division, and balance must be maintained. As I wrote early this morning:

For one night, everything is right with the universe. I fully expect a meteor to crash into earth tomorrow and snuff out all life.

I was wrong, of course. A division title equals a block of houses. If the Cubs win the pennant, expect a meteor to wipe out an entire country. And a World Series?

That's when we can expect all life snuffed out.
