Obscure comic strip reference of the day:

Is it the comet Kohoutek?

 

[Mr. Laser Beam]

hey, is that Viggo Mortensen walking down the street with some kid?

 

[QuasarVM]

The object is only 33 feet across...not big enough to cause any damage -- unless you are walking down the street and it happens to fall on you. Or your house or place of business.

That might smart.

Oh my! I think my number is up!

(I have always said that I would be killed by an asteroid or falling satellite, since I love space and the space program so much. Or I will be killed in freak cow stampede, since I am a vegetarian. )

What comic is that referring to? I'm old enough to remember the real Comet Kohoutek, and in fact, in my bedroom I have a paperback about it on the shelf.

Not sure about asteroids and the dogs, but I do know, if you hear rain, then grab your gun and bring in the cat.

Peanuts. When comet Kohoutek was in the news Schultz ran a strip parodying the Doomsdayers by having Snoopy and Woodstock believe the end of the world was coming.

Will this asteroid-hitting event get me a day off work? Otherwise you're just getting my hopes up unneccesarrily.

Yup, me too. (Did you work at DRI by any chance?)
