Was it a comet and an asteroid collision or an asteroid and an asteroid collision or a comet and a comet collision [[no way)? I don't care it's still pretty sweet.

"...the pressure of sunlight..."
Dang, Qweek. I didn't know that there even was such a thing.
See that? Thanks to you & your fascination with celestial phenomena, I have learned something.
Thanks for bringing this business to our attention.
It's always healthy to contemplate the fact that, despite all of our machinations, lofty intentions, and the seriousness with which we take ourselves, if a large enough fragment of something, anything, is headed for our planet and hangs in there long enough, and with enough remaining mass, to hit us squarely, we are goners.
Alas; no more Super Bowls, no more TMZ, no more CSI:Poughkeepsie.
No more being mad at Jack White for moving to Nashville.
No more speculating about whether or not John Conyers is gay.
No more talk about being the Greatest Nation on Earth.
No more fucked-up human beings fighting wars with other fucked-up human beings as a result of the illusion that there is any difference between the two groups.
Cockroaches, of course, will survive the cataclysm.
