Asteroid inbound Atlantic Tsunami will follow

#1 Postby spinfan4eva » Sat Apr 01, 2006 8:15 pm

A giant, 40 stories tall wave could soon drench the eastern United States, the result of an asteroid-driven tsunami. However seaside dwellers need not move just yet, the asteroid isn't due for another eight months.

No offense, but you guys need to try harder. :) Celebrity rumors and impending doom does not make for good April Fools jokes, especially for anyone already on their toes.

Besides that, celeb rumors lead to problems for forum administrators (just ask the guys at Datalounge or Marcia Cross). And false predictions of natural disasters on a weather forum? *snirt* Did ya really think about that one? :)

Gimme silliness! The S2K being down for two weeks was good (although I too wondered why it wasn't a mod/admin posting it). In-person pranks are the best...unfortunately, that's not possible here.

Maybe next year.... :D

:yayaya: Well I tried twice here and tried all day in RT and got absolutely nowhere with anyone. But ya cant say I didnt try and I think I deserve an 'E' for effort. :(

---I'll admit though I did actually get fooled by the late season cold snap in houston joke in the winter weather forum and actually went to the local forecast discussion for here to see if we in Fla would get in on some of the cold weather :roll:
