It's nothing really. Just Marvin the Martian trying to destroy the earth because it blocks his view of Venus.

Ahh, I wonder if that was what my 5 year-old was talking about. I was driving the kids to indoor soccer and he was telling me he saw a shooting star. Seems likely since we live in NE Sask and practice was at 6:30 pm.I, of course, hushed him because we were running late and missed everything.

Very cool pictures. I wonder if they will find any pieces.

tons of rumours as to where it landed.

Tommy Knockers ala Deslisle, Sk?

So was there a gathering of communists about to protest a gathering of Nazi's?

Posted by: Stephen at November 21, 2008 11:41 AM

I live in the cold Lake area and by all accounts here, it looks like the impact, if there is one, would be close to the sask/alta border.

War of the Worlds!!!

Obama took the White House. Now his armies of aliens are starting to land. Like undeserving freeloaders (AKA Affirmative Action) they will suck up all our resources (AKA wealth redistribution).

No wonder nobody's sure where the O was born.

Anybody remember the Puppet TV show "Captain Scarlet and the Mysterons"?

Watch all of video and you will see the Mysterons sign: TWO O's!.
One's for Oprah who help put Obama in.

And to think, when George W. Bush came into office the loudest leftist whine about the man was his insistence on an American missile defence shield.

Let's hope this remains a mystery...

I've seen two really big ones in my lifetime. The first was in Nova Scotia in about 1972. It traveled in a very shallow arc, and had some spectacular colours.

The second was in Grande Prairie in about 1982. It came straight down, and it shattered just above the horizon. This one was seen by a lot of people, and all of them thought it landed close to them. My brother saw it from his home, 20 miles from me. We both had a good bearing on it, and by triangulation, we estimated it landed in the mountains. A bunch of people convinced someone from the government that it landed just outside the city, and an extensive search followed. I'd expect the same thing will happen this time.

Obviously this scenario has already been covered. I think Jack Nicholson does a good impression of Obamma. click .

I always suspected that giant pysanka in Vegreville was more than just an egg. It is the mothership!

After the apocalypse, the Vegreville Egg is going to break open, and the world will be repopulated with Ukranians.

The real story:

That was an alien ship that landed in a rural area across from a gas station. The captain of the ship and his 1st officer approached the two gas pumps. The Captain said "Hello Earthlings, take me to your leader". Obviously the neither pump answered the question so the pissed off alien reiterated the question, this time more forcefully "Take me to your leader or I'll blast you!" while pulling out his ray-gun. At this time the 1st officer was growing concerned and told the Captain that " I don't think it's a good idea to bother these two Captain", but the Captain ignored his Officer and proceeded to say " I'll count to 3, if you don't take me to your leader I'm going to blast you! 1...2...3".

BOOM, a big explosion resulted from blasting the two gas tanks throwing the two aliens 20 yards away into the ditch. It was at this time the Captain turned to the 1st Officer and asked "How did you know these humans were going to be so bad ass?" and the 1st officer responded "Captain, anyone who can wrap his d*nk around himself twice and stick it in his ear has to be one bad SOB".

At this very moment, somewhere high above the prairies, some hapless Albertan is having a shiny metal tube shoved into his arse.

The Sky is Falling! The Sky is Falling! No doubt this will be blamed on globle warming as well.

Yeah, the in-flight entertainment on Air Canada is getting pretty bad these days.

Interesting... Nostradamus mentioned something about a "comet", and he also mentioned Mabus, or the AntiChrist, in the very same Quatrain, and some believe he was talking about Obama... Hell, never know... he does seem to have foreseen Hitler and 9/11, if one sees the eerie similarity between what he wrote and what actually happened later...

So I'm on the computer and my wife yells at me thru my door, 'did somebody just drive in our yard?'

I get up and look out the back door and say no.
Why do you ask?

She says, 'well I was just looking out the north patio window and the trees and backyard all lit up for an instant like a cars headlites were shining on them.'

'That's strange' I said.
An hour later, I heard that a meteor had blown thru the area.

And today we hear that it was actually Camrose and vicinity that drew the short straw to be the landing pad.

Way O/T but:

The blog World Climate Report was one of the first I found as contrarian, but scientificaly so, about global warming. Then it fell almost dormant for a few months. It is now posting regularly again. It ranks up there with WUWT and CA. Hey, Patrick Michaels does contribute, so it's got to be good.

Pay a visit and encourage them. http://www.worldclimatereport.com/

If you listen to or read transcripts of Limbaugh's program, you may know that he called the chosen one the Messiah.
Could it be? The star. The falling star?
Limbaugh is almost always right 98.3% of the time, according to his auditors. He also mentioned that it is extremely difficult to be right 100% of the time something like 6 weeks or months in a stretch.
You think? Do you?
Just bloody kidding.

Sorry for the one-liner, but LOL!

"Yeah, the in-flight entertainment on Air Canada is getting pretty bad these days."

OT: I caught this while flying (WestJet) on their TV system:

Louis CK's "Everything's amazing, nobody's happy" on Conan O'Brian.

His bit on flying starts at about 2 minutes into the clip. I still find it hilarious even after seeing it many times.

Oops, sorry, the full clip is here, where he later talks about the sun exploding:
