Imagine That

Did you see the news this morning? There's nothing more news worthy than a ball of fire falling from the sky. Over parts of Texas a mysterious ball of fire was seen hurling towards earth, and as of yet, there is no explanation - no plane crashes reported, no satellite collisions in space - all the necessary ingredients to exercise the imagination. 

Imagine.... it was a secret test of a new military weapon that went bad, and its a great government cover up underway to play it down. Or, maybe it was a space ship that crashed and the SSIS (Space Ship Intelligence Service) is secretly on the scene. At this moment they are moving mysterious materials and peculiar green creatures to hidden science labs in the desert for testing. Or, maybe it was a rocket launched from China or Iran that one of our secret military space stations intercepted and secrecy is necessary to ward off any panic. Panic would be really bad for the economy. 

Well, most likely it was just a piece of the ozone layer breaking up due to the global warming crisis. This was no doubt caused by all the gaseous cows in Texas eating some Mexican feed accidentally infused with peppers. Yea, that's probably it - makes about as much sense as anything you hear on that big square thing in the Living Room.
