What are the odds of that ??

Not "people", you

The asteroid is gone already.

Well it was a Meteor "shower" so there wasn't just one... and at least one definitely crashed.

The local office of the National Emergencies Ministry said in a statement: "A meteorite disintegrated above the Urals (mountain range in central Russia), partially burning up in the lower atmosphere.

"Fragments of the meteorite reached Earth, falling in sparsely populated areas in the Chelyabinsk region."

There's also lots of info here

rt.com...

Apparently over 1200 people injured..

Star for you, I got it, either nobody eles did or they just groaned and moved on.

'impact more powerful than the North Korean nuclear test...'

So all these years, the governments of the world in their vast wisdom have spent trillions of dollars on incredibly sophisticated, horribly toxic nuclear weapons when they could have just been throwing rocks at each other???

ok... well its gone past now... maybe its time to go to bed now good night

Apparently one has hit Cuba and there are news articles on it but I cannot find a credible source


Also I guess the Utah and Georgia sightings of fireballs in the sky last night were just hyped since nothing more on it emerged..

Seriously!! It kinda gave me goosebumps. That's why I decided to share it... Maybe there really is something to that remote viewing stuff. And the weirder part is that she said she has had the link to that site for several months so they haven't changed it or added to it at all.

Nope. I almost always stick to non-fiction.

Well, then you won't get the significance of "throw rocks at them" then.
The term "fiction" doesn't mean there is nothing real about it.
