Sky�s falling!...You think�

Chicken Little was right!

According to La Republica newspaper of Peru, a meteor has crashed into the earth on Saturday the 15th, on the Andes near a small town called Caranca, in the district of Puno. About 200 people who went near where the fiery ball from the sky fell felt ill with headaches, nausea and breathing problems caused by "toxic" fumes radiating from its crater, which is 30 (98+ feet) meters in diameter and 6 meters (19+feet) deep.

Just a few days ago, there was another meteor falling report in one of the nearby countries to Peru (I think it was Colombia or Ecuador, I’m not sure). Is this because the people in that region are more apt to believe in the occult or things from the sky or is this for real, it remains to be seen. The fact is, in Peru’s case, we have a crater and a respectable newspaper reporting the incident.

I think, maybe, the members of the jet set keep falling off the sky while mishandling their private planes or the earthlings are being stoned by the higher ups.

If it is the second case, heaven knows we deserve it. Maybe we should walk around, wearing crash-resistant helmets.
