Not to worry. If it had hit the Earth, we’d have detected it.

When one hits, maybe there will be Divine Intervention and it can hit Chappaqua.

It’s those stupid Balusian sightseers again.

Probably was a keg of Balusian ale in the back.

They were probably mooning us.

So, which agency is supposed to monitor for such events? Find it. Replace the senior Executive and the entire staff. Tell them the stakes are high and do not make the same error again.

When one hits and takes out a city, then we will get serious about it. Until then party like its 1999.

We have the means to redirect these things if we see them early enough.
