Default Is this a Meteorite? Help Please.

Actually what sets this "rock" apart from others, and what makes me think
this is indeed a meteorite, is the many spherical structures within the
rock. As you will see if you click on the links below, this "rock" seems to
be broken off from a larger piece. There exists many spherical structures,
which may be chondrules.

Any input would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Ken

Probably a metamorphic rock.
