If you want to be really picayune about it if it hasn’t touched the ground it’s still a meteor.

These days everyone always seems to be talking about “being in the present”. What’s wrong with a little wasing every once in a while? The past tense is underrated IMHO.

I would really hate to be that constipated.

Anyone have more recent info on the meteorite fall in eastern West Virginia a few years ago? I was at my country place when I was startled by a huge explosion. I thought it might be a very large blast at a quarry about 2 miles away. Next day everyone was talking about it at a community meeting. Reports here at that time did not make it sound so close to where I was, perhaps ten to 20 miles distant. Wow, was it loud.

Think San Francisco, and much, much bigger rock.

Keep that positive attitude!

“On Oct. 3, 2021, a softball-sized meteorite crashed through a house in British Columbia, Canada, landing in a bed just inches away from a woman who wasing.” It can be tough to pay close attention to one’s surroundings while one is wasing.

That's EXACTLY why I never was.

I always lie in bed to do my wasing. The bigger question is who was she wasing with?

To get through the shingles, the roof sheathing, attic insulation, ceiling sheetrock and still hit the oak hardwood floor do to that damage? That rock was really moving!

It coulda killed somebody. (especially if they were wasing where the rock hit)

It’s a lot more likely that it was a Bigfoot who are known to throw rocks.
