Burning debris seen falling from sky

Preliminary reports by Williamson County officials said a small aircraft went down, but officials now say it's likely just space debris from two satellites crashing.

The Federal Aviation Administration said Sunday that it has received numerous reports across Texas of falling debris, which could be related to a recent U.S.-Russian satellite collision.

FAA spokesman Roland Herwig said officials suspect the debris could be related to the collision, but he said that had not been confirmed.

That was no satellite collision.

The aliens want their Roswell vehicle back, but missed the turn over Albuquerque and burned in.

At least it hit Austin and not somewhere imporant in Texas.  And it happened during a night marathon!  What are the odds?

Teh Russians would never lob satellites at "The People's Republik of Austin".   :thatsright:  It's obviously Bush's fault.
