1 in 500 Chance

Bruce Willis, where are you? There is an asteroid approaching Earth and there is a 1 in 500 chance that it will hit us. That is not so great. If I wanted to play Major League Baseball and I got one hit in 500 at bats I would quickly find myself out of a job.

If it does, it might be the size of the asteroid that caused the Arizona crater, but it won't have the force to create a crater that large. Don't worry, it won't be a danger until 2030. Wait! I'll be 78 years old then. Let it land on my head.

So, is this another case of the media taking something scientific and sensationalizing it? Plus, where would Bruce Willis have been without Billy Bob Thornton? Good thoughts. Entertaining read.
