The Sky is Falling

Frank Barone was fond of saying that he prayed every day for the coming of the "comet" to take away his married existence.  And a week doesn't go by when someone doesn't advance the notion of a similar catastrophe to the Yucatan Peninsula impact that wiped out the dinosaurs.

But now, scientists have determined that 2182 is the year of impact, and we're all doomed.  I hope my speculation about the non-event known as catastrophic global warming is  wrong, so that no one will be around for the actual impact.  "Better to burn out than be blown away", to paraphrase some old, bald, bloated rocker.
