  If it lands it'll probably end up bang in the middle of somebody's recycling bin where they will be fined for not sorting interstellar waste from plastics. Either that or it'll land on double yellow lines and receive a ticket from some jobsworth peaked hat.

  According to the doomsday websites, it could change the Earth's magnetic poles, and those int the A positive blood group will be played off in A minor, while those in the A negative group will become positively electrified.
  
  For two days the Earth may go into Quantum Relativity, and the two opposite genders will be properly attracted to each other, marriages shall be redefined as between "two opposite poles", and same-poles will instinctively repel each other and "go straight".

  And you and BarryW will be spotted in a romantic restaurant, holding hands and gazing lovingly into each other's eyes.

  The asteroid over the Urals is totally unconnected to the asteroid visible this evening as the two had completely different trajectories.

  Rumour has it the asteroid was transporting smaller landing craft carrying aliens, which landed in Russia.
  Oops, this was leaked ....
