EVENTS IN NEBRASKA: "At 9 p.m. Central Time on Dec. 16th, a very bright meteor lit up the completely overcast sky like lightning in southeast Nebraska," reports Trooper Jerry Chab of the Nebraska State Patrol. "It flashed for approximately 2 seconds and was followed by ground shaking, which prompted many calls by the public to law enforcement in a three county wide area." The USGS says there was a magnitude 3.5 earthquake near Auburn, Nebraska, at 8:53 pm Wednesday night, about the same time and place as the fireball. Coincidence? Readers in Nebraska with photos or eyewitness accounts are encouraged to submit a report.
Merry Christmas and A Happy New Year.
They're here!
H1N1 is our only hope!
btt
No. The commander of Offut AFB was just trying to demonstrate how important his installation is to Nebraska.
It’s Obambi trying to close Offutt.
Heck, it is thought that the Tunguska event was an airburst meteroid or comet.

10-15 megatons in explosive effect!
Oops! And I now see that Tunguska was buried in there.
Thanks. Will check it out.
My husband’s family contacting the home planet, most likely.
(My husband’s family is from Nebraska, but many of us feel that they are actually from another planet - “The grays speak a higher form of Hungarian”)
War of the Worlds...”they come from the ground”.
My house is only 2 miles north of Offutt. I didn’t feel a quake and some of the past quakes, even the one in Mexico a dozen or so years ago rattled the windows. I did hear a low rumbling sound at about that time but I assumed that it was a snow plow on the street behind our circle.
Oh but we do get and feel earthquakes here. There was a quake centered somewhere around Falls City a few years back that was easily felt as well as one around Auburn. Part of the Humbolt fault runs through this area.
And YOUR Senator Nelson is at the center of the ObamaCare debate...and, and, Dear Leader is threatening to close Offut AFB...
Hmmmm. Spooky.
(Really...it is ‘odd’ how a bunch/cluster of ‘things’ happen all at once).

Calling Scully and Mulder... :-)
Here’s one, but not the actual FReyewitness thread I was talking about.
No, MY Senator is John Thune. We are next door to Nebraska. I won't mention who my other, recovering from a "congential vascualr defect in the brain" but fully functional, (they just can't say "stroke" or "intracranial bleed) Senator is; I try not to mention his name.
