    I bet it’s that little guy from Destroy All Humans.

    Sheesh - what did he do to annoy them?

    I don’t know if I’d consider it bad luck. You know what a meteorite could go for on EBAY, and you have 5 of them to sell.

    Yup, aliens.
    Aliens have traveled thousands of light years to our little planet to… throw meteorites at some poor guy’s house.

    Thinking martians are targeting you, less far fetched than 5 seperate meteorites falling from space and hitting your house.

    Confirmed meteorites or alleged? My first instincts in the latter are: pranksters with a catapult or a big potato gun or something similar, or in the case of rough weather a tornado picked up the rocks and they were deposited there :the latter being the least likely, but aliens tossing rocks on his house? ..sure, it’s possible, but without far better evidence it’s quite improbable.

    Rock Roll’d!

    I’m not sure aliens would bother bothering with us. Pelting some random guy’s house is like throwing rocks at a hive of bees, no good will come of it. I’m sure they’ve scouted our planet out, this is assuming there are aliens, which I am not convinced there is any possiblity for them, but on the small off chance that there are, their scouts surely have watched our media. They are bound to have watched at least Independance Day, in which we kick some serious “A,” as we do in all alien attack movies. It’s safe to assume they would know that they don’t stand a chance against us!

    I think the Contact’s “nuking an ant hill in Africa” analogy is more apt, DrJones. We could destroy it without them ever seeing it coming, and we wouldn’t even feel bad about it.

    I was going to make a joke about Mycroft Holmes and Free Luna, but I guess Bob already did.

    nice, I was hoping someone would pick up on it :]

    Ooh… Poor guy. I should probably take back everything I’ve said about Scientology. >_>

    Stupid outer space, always screwing up everything good on earth. Can’t even keep its rocks to itself.

    Just because you’re a delusional paranoiac, it doesn’t mean the aliens aren’t trying to kill you.

    Tempscire, I’m afraid I am lost on your reference :( If you’re talking about the ‘97 Jodie Foster flick, I don’t remember that in the movie. If it is some other reference, I am quite lost!

    Close. It was brought up in the book. :)

    Ah, guess I’ll have to read the book to get it then?

    I have to agree with Scotchdrnkr on this one. Hard to argue with money (or something readily exchanged for it) falling from the sky, and looks like he has some free advertising to boot!

    Simple explanation. It was a meteor storm where all 5 were in a cluster. NOT 5 separate isolated instances. DUHHHHH

    Read it again. He said one hit an August and then another hit a year later. Besides, the meteorites would spread out. They wouldn’t all hit one small target. This sounds like a hoax anyways.

    If it sounds too good to be true, it probably is. I’m thinking a hoax.

    Oh OK, I admit, it was me. I threw them stones out of my spaceship. I’m sorry.

    this isn’t true, what are the chances, right now more than one in a trillion.

    Hey I come from Serbia, and follow main news sources from that country daily, but I haven’t seen any such news even on the more trashy tabloids there.

    I saw the original post on BoingBoing and I see that the cited source is ananova.com

    This web site has been source of other such exciting news supposedly from my country such as:

    Serbs line up for testicle shocks
    http://www.ananova.com/news/story/sm_1605282.html?menu=news.quirkies

    Ananova - Frogs rain down on Serbia
    http://www.ananova.com/news/story/sm_1421070.html

    Man needed surgery after sex with hedgehog
    http://www.ananova.com/news/story/sm_1996710.html?menu=news.quirkies

    Of course none of them was ever seen in any Serbian news source. I heavily suspect a hoax.

    This guy totally sounds like my neighbor, he claims he’s been abducted and probed more than once.

    “this isn’t true, what are the chances, right now more than one in a trillion.”

    That’s still better than zero in a trillion.
