Too bad we don’t know how to steer’em. I have a few choice sites for contact, but it might involve when the WEF was in session.

The near-Earth object, called 2023 EY

EY is the common abbreviation for Eretz Yisrael.

An asteroid the size of a house that was discovered Monday is projected to pass by Earth on Friday.

What timing.

Be on the lookout:

Is this different from the “swimming pool” sized asteroid that was supposed to pass dangerously close to the earth? It so hard to keep up with all the impending doom incidents they try to distract us with in order to keep us from seeing the doom heading our way due to the actions of the federal government.

Could the House be prevailed upon to clear the way for Affordable Housing construction in Washington DC?

Close ones....

From 1945 to 1958 there was an MLB baseball pitcher nicknamed Sal the Barber.(Salvatore Maglie).

His high fastballs came so close to the face that the players got a free close shave. “ A gentle personality off the field went unnoticed during games, his foreboding physical appearance contributing to his menacing presence on a pitcher’s mound.”

“Is this different from the “swimming pool” sized asteroid that was supposed to pass dangerously close to the earth? “

Probably caused by the ‘Atmospheric River’ that the weather channels invented in the past two months.
