Russian meteor blast injures at least 1,000 people, authorities say
Moscow (CNN) — A meteor streaked through the skies above Russia’s Urals region Friday (2/15) morning before exploding with a flash and boom that shattered glass in buildings and left about 1,000 people hurt, authorities said.
Described by NASA as a “tiny asteroid,” the meteor’s explosion created a blast in central Russia equivalent to 300,000 tons of TNT, the space agency’s officials said Friday, adding that the incident was a once-in-100-years event.
I wonder if this meteor is related to that asteroid that flew by on 2/15. The heaven’s are starting to rain down upon us.

Being fucked it seems is a little like the piles; the human condition.

Heebee geebee.. It'd be scary enough to have something more or less innocent from outerspace come hurling through the sky but I couldn't imagine something man-made hurling with the sole purpose of killing me screaming over head.

Also from Vonnegut's "Slaughterouse-Five":
"The visitor from outer space made a serious study of Christianity, to learn, if he could, why Christians found it so easy to be cruel."
"But the gospels actually taught this: Before you kill somebody, make absolutely sure he isn't well connected. So it goes."
