LOL

I don't know what it is, but I am seriously amused by a lot of random statements this morning

I find it really fascinating that they can predict - down to the DAY - when this thing might hit.

Astronomers are monitoring an asteroid named Apophis, which has a 1 in 45,000 chance of striking Earth on April 13, 2036.

Don't wanna fall asleep...don't wanna close my eyes because the asteroid would miss us baby and I don't wanna miss a thing! Sorry, had to.
Anyway...Shiner, never mind Jersey Girl, what about Gigli? Seriously, get your priorities straight.

Too bad the weather channel can't tell me whether its going to be raining or sunny 6 hours from now. I'm simply stunned that they have the audacity to post that 10 day forecast, and Accuweather has a 15 day one...you gotta be kidding me. Hell, you've usually got a 50 percent chance of being right, and they don't even take that risk, predicting days 2-8 as "Partly cloudy, possible chance of rain low of 20 high of 80"
