They fly in a V to reduce wind resistance.
One end is longer than the other because... (wait for it) More geese. Ba dum dum

Well yeah, but I had to repeat it for our more challenged readers. I'm accommodating like that.

Add in this fireball and you get a premeditated program for the destruction of the earth. It's a conspiracy by the racists.

With all the recent earthquakes, floods and now meteors, I think I'll just cash in my 401K and go to Vegas.

I have no idea. I saw one in college back in the 70's and it was bluish green. Others were red.

It WAS a meteor! The weird thing is it didn't look like a streak like you usually see when they fall through the atmosphere.
http://news.yahoo.com/s/space/201004...overedbyfarmer A small chunk of rock believed to be a fragment from a meteor that burst into a stunning fireball over Wisconsin Wednesday night was discovered by a farmer after it fell on the roof of his shed. The meteor fragment is peppered with gray, white and reddish minerals, though one side is covered in what scientists called a "fusion crust" – a layer of dark material forged during the meteor's fiery passage into Earth's atmosphere. It weighs just 0.2 ounces (7.5 grams) and is about 2 inches (5 cm) long and less than an inch wide. |
