And the good news is:
It's Warhol's turn to get bonked in 2007
Good riddance.

Campbell soup in bath room happens more than this coffee boy report,
dares to claim... He who last laugh always laugh best.... Ha Ha Ha Ha

And Remember I am not talking about a little Rock... I am talking about
mountain high Iron Patato as the mount of Himalaya.

Got any other false predictions Warty, because in all fairness you are
full of them. You must be the navigation officer. Or the Jester.

Yes... I have the Hangman CometH.

All Rise For The Hangman CometH

He comes from the land of the dead.
Leaving his victims with eyes full of dread.
The crime has been done and the price will be paid.
All hell breaks loose and justice is being made.

CHORUS:
Stretch the rope, hang it high!
Bring the sinners, they are about to die!
God cant help you, nobody can!
Open the gates, all rise for the hangman CometH.

Condemned to be hung its the worst kind of death.
The judge has no mercy he has only wrath.
Dont look for redemption inside your psycho mind.
When the hangman cometh is here damnation is all you'll find.

CHORUS

As the rope is tight around your neck.
No need for regret no use looking back.
Your face turning red and you're burning inside.
You're going to hell and its a one way ride.

The Hangman CometH...

Default Probability of Being Hit By a Meteorite

Cactus Saul I'[m holding an iron meteorite in my hand it is small and
very heavy(much heavier than the average rock. If hit by it on the head
you are dead. I have read a dog was killed by a meteorite. I read a
woman had a near miss. Reality is meteorites come in all sizes,and hit
the Earth at different speeds. Some touch down rather lightly. Should
one a mile in diameter going at 50,000 mph hit the Gulf of Mexico
Florida Alabama Mississippi lower Texas would be completely wiped out.
Such a meteorite hit Arizona 60 thousand years ago. It killed only a
few lizards, Water being non-compressible makes being hit a transfer
of energy in all directions. Bert

How do you know? Maybe Arizona was teeming with life before the big
one hit!
