Asteroid insurance, get it now!

Here’s a Special Offer. I’ll sell you one million dollars of asteroid insurance for twenty-five bucks. This offer is limited. Get it while you can!

Why? Because NASA isn’t being funded to watch out for all the asteroids that potentially threaten Earth.

You can use your credit card, and if you act today I’ll send you a free asteroid-strike clean-up kit.

There is indeed, and it includes your pets. Moreover, if the asteroid hits your garage you get a new car.

Re: Asteroid insurance, get it now!

There probably is, or will be, a novel written that accounts for the complex human reaction when a large asteroid is discovered to be on a collision course with Earth. I can image all sorts of mayhem and madness, lawlessness beyond belief. My novel would have all the butchery reset the human population to about one billion. Then I would have the asteroid veer off course somehow at the last minute and barely miss Earth, leaving behind a spectacular fireworks show. Some will say God did it, some will say he didn't, and nothing of any importance will have changed.

Re: Asteroid insurance, get it now!

I'll give you the same coverage for $10 but you have to get at least 1,000,000 people to buy a policy......
