Massive Gas Cloud Speeding Toward Collision With Milky Way

A giant cloud of hydrogen gas is speeding toward a collision with our Milky Way Galaxy, and when it hits -- in less than 40 million years -- it may set off a spectacular burst of stellar fireworks.

Assuming we don't all die in the next ice age, or the Iranians or Koreans don't start a nuclear world war, or the collapse of civilization due to socialist "changes" doesnt wipe us out, maybe someone will be around to witness this incredible event.

[redhead]

40 million years? I’d better put in for some vacation time right now, or everybody else is going to get all the good days.

[Bryanw92]

We need to start spending tax dollars NOW to prevent this from happening. It’s for the children.

I can't wait.

[fish hawk]

Thanks for the tip. I’m going to sell all my stocks now while I still can.

Women and minorities hardest hit.

The president was asked what he intends to do and he said he will study the situation for 43 million years.

[Gatún(CraigIsaMangoTreeLawyer)]

And how the heck do they know it is “hydrogen gas?”

It could be methane gas out of Obama’s posterior.

[Frenchtown Dan]

Ha, Ha!!

Bush’s fault!!

He also noted that it was Bush's fault.

..in less than 40 million years...

Damn It! We would have just paid off the OBamaCare National Debt about that time!

[RichInOC]

It’s methane, and...uh...I didn’t do it.

[bytesmith]

The global warming alarmists are missing an opportunity. It will take some heavy duty taxation to prevent this collision from occurring.

[Frenchtown Dan]

You mean there’s money left?

[Frenchtown Dan]

No, it’s all the Macdonald lovers. Like the ones in the White House.

[PogySailor]

Pelosi will announce a galactic ban on gas clouds tomorrow. Paid for by US taxpayers of course in the name of fairness.

Probably a duplicate, but why not...

You beat me to it.

[Frenchtown Dan]

Yep, I always knew he was a blowhard!!!

“It’s methane, and...uh...I didn’t do it.”

It was the dog.

Massive Gas Cloud Speeding Toward Collision With Milky Way

Has Obama apologized yet?

[Jaxter]

[KoRn]

Why is this even news?

In 40 million years it will probably be debatable whether or not we were even here....

[Dysart]

I would subscribe your catastrophism list but I think it would be a disaster.

[Redleg Duke]

We’re all gonna die...and it is Bush’s fault!

[Frenchtown Dan]

This was posted under the topic of Astronomy for the science buffs out there.

But I think it’s even more than debatable whether or not we’re still here, more than likely we won’t be. Not too many species have gone that long without some kind of catastrophe.

And we in the midst of one now.

[Born Conservative]

WE ARE ALL GOING TO DIE!!!!

[Texas Eagle]

...and when it hits -- in less than 40 million years --...

Dammit. Just about the time I should have my truck paid off.

[gogogodzilla]

Oh NOES!!!

(and if that imagine doesn't work for ya)

:-P

[SunkenCiv]

[reagan_fanatic]

DOOMED!!!

[eclecticEel]

Now will we finally stop driving our SUV’s?

[Frenchtown Dan]

Yeah, but not as soon as the Gore Geek Gang would have us think!

[Frenchtown Dan]

No, he’s blaming Bush. We all know that everything universal is Bush’s fault, including: plagues,locusts,tornadoes,hurricanes,blizzards,draughts,and sex with Bitchelle.

[Frenchtown Dan]

Well, perhaps not as scary as our president and last lady.

[Frenchtown Dan]

Not me.
Mine is a 96 Ford Explorer with around 270k on the odometer. A V6, gets around 20 mpg.
I figure I’ll get another 100k out of it.

Puts out much less carbon dioxide and carbon monoxide than my woodstove does, and nobody’s taking away my woodstove,
yuh hear?

[Dysart]

Thank you, you’ve been great...hey, try the chicken little and don’t forget to tip your server.

By all means, I’d honored to join your august ping list. If we’re all gonna die I suppose it’s important to keep abreast of the situation.
