On Nov 8th at about midnight, a HUGE asteroid about the size of an aircraft carrier will pass closer to the earth than the moon. The astronomers have given it the ubersexy name of 2005 YU55.  The physicist that shows up on Fox News all the time said we should be able to see it with binoculars. For those of you who don't believe just cause I heard it on Fox News, here's a link from Katie's bunch. http://www.cbsnews.com/stories/2011/05/09/scitech/main20061151.shtmlMarty |

In any event... I've decided to procrastinate on my Christmas shopping and do it at the last minute.... just in case.  |

Not supposed to but you know some people will be running around claiming it's a sign of the earth coming to an end. Where's Bruce Willis and Billy Bob Thornton when you need them?  Marty |

the big foreheads are really excited about this because this time they know about it in advance. we've been missed (barely) by asteroids a few times but they always found out after the fact. we are overdue for a big impact, any day now.........  |

If there is one thing I have learned in my life is not to worry about stuff I can't control. It's just a waste of time and energy.
