Anybody else see that sucker? It was a big un! It was around Canon City. I read about another in SW Colorado last night. Is there a shower that I don't know about?

Meteor: A person who eats meat.
Aside from that, could this be like "signs in the heavens"?

Most large bolides are random and unassociated with any "shower."

However, for reasons not totally understood, both shower activity, and ALSO non-shower "sporadics" are generally more active in the last half than in the first half of the year.

I didn't see the one tonight, but saw last nights (sunday) one in Northern Colorado. It was impressive. From my viewpoint it was coming straight down, BIG blue green one with golden fire tail sparks. this one was the most spectacular I've seen. I think it might have impacted, probably somewhere NE of Grand Junction (but my point of observation was form east of the mountain range and I could be off considerably).

(Two people seated opposite each other at a desk. Between them there is a large window. It appears that they are quite high up in a large office building. Every so often a body falls past the window. They are both working busily. After a pause a body drops past the window. First Man talks. Second Man hasn't noticed.)

First Man: (Eric Idle) Hey, did you see that?

Second Man: (John Cleese) Uhm?

First Man: Did you see somebody go past the window?

Second Man: What?

First Man: Somebody just went past the window. That way. (indicates down)

Second Man: (flatly) Oh. Oh.

(Second Man returns to his work. First Man looks for a little. As he starts to work again another body goes hurtling past the window.)

First Man: Another one.

Second Man: Huh?

First Man: Another one just went past downwards.

Second Man: What?

First Man: Two people have just fallen out of that window to their almost certain death.

Second Man: Fine, fine, fine.

First Man: Look! Two people (another falls) three people have just fallen past that window.

Second Man: Must be a board meeting.

First Man: Oh yeah. (another falls past) Hey. That was Wilkins of finance.

Second Man: Oh, no, that was Robertson.

First Man: Wilkins.

Second Man: Robertson.

First Man: Wilkins.

Second Man: Robertson.

(Another falls.)

First Man: That was Wilkins.

Second Man: That was Wilkins. He was a good, good, er, golfer, Wilkins.

First Man: Very good golfer. Very good golfer. Rotten at finance. It'll be Parkinson next.

Second Man: Bet you it won't.

First Man: How much.

Second Man: What?

First Man: How much do you bet it won't? Fiver?

Second Man: All right.

First Man: Done.

Second Man: You're on.

First Man: Fine. (shakes; they look at the window) Come on Parky.

Second Man: Don't do it Parky.

First Man: Come on Parky. Jump Parky. Jump.

Second Man: Come on now be sensible Parky.

(Cut to letter.)

Voice Over (Graham Chapman): Dear Sir, I am writing to complain about that sketch about people failing out of a high building. I have worked all my life in such a building and have never once.... [arrgghhh] [splat]

(Cut to film of man falling out of window. Cut back to set. First Man has hands in the air jubilantly.)

First Man: Parkinson!

Second Man: Johnson!

Most large bodies(sic) are random and unassociated with any "shower."

I know Nadler is a large body that is random, but the idea that he would be unassociated with any shower--the thought of him not bathing frequently--is too revolting.
