Astronomers were within minutes of alerting President Bush to a potentially devastating asteroid they believed had a 25 percent chance of hitting Earth.

The asteroid turned out to be even bigger than expected, about 1,600 feet wide, but it eventually passed the planet at a distance of about 7.5 million miles, about 32 times the distance from the Earth to the Moon, BBC News reported.

wow. were they also getting aerosmith ready to perform?

Jesus all our chicks have to cry now before we die?

bruce willis and ben affleck would have saved the day, for sure.

Billy bob thornton would be involved. Owen Wilson would act retarded and Steve Buscemi would go crazy no less, yadda yadda.

tea leoni would get crushed by a giant wave with her father.

it would be so tragic.

i just hope that I wouldn't get eaten by some giant killer tomatoes.

Id have to run to quiznos to try a toasty sub before i perish.

7,500 times more than the distance I would walk just to be the guy who falls down at your door.

-or-

25%? See, God is pleased with Mel Gibson's movie.

i think it would have been funny to hear Bush talk about the 'evil-doers' who sent the asteriod. hey, maybe it would have been another reason to start a war.
