there's a 100% chance it will land on a Cyclone

News Item: NASA expects a 1,400-pound ammonia tank from the international space station to fall out of orbit in 10 to 12 months, with pieces as heavy as 39 pounds surviving re-entry, but says there is only a 1-in-5,000 chance of the pieces hitting anyone. That is about the same chance a golfer has of hitting a hole in one. In other news, a blind woman hit a hole in one at a Pennsylvania country club over the weekend . . .

A Cyclone pitcher I would say...

As long as it's not Z, we'll survive it somehow.

Problem is, it looks like it'll happen next baseball season - so they can't really hide in basements while the pieces fall.

I predict it happening on the pitcher's mound at Dodger Stadium.
