The! Biggest! News! of! the! Day! - Not Retail Sales or Google's 360 Price Target

Here are some of the contenders for today's biggest...news...of...the...day...

• A look into the retail sales picture as one firm says "the warmest December in at least 10 years resulted in a shopping environment for the 2006 holiday period that strongly favored demand for non-seasonal merchandise"...
• A new price target for Google (GOOG) as a Piper Jaffray analysts now looks for the internet firm to hit 630 per share...
• The weekly jobless claims report...
• Comments about yesterday's FOMC minutes...

While those are all stories worth watching, I think it is obviously clear that the biggest story is this - Mysterious object crashes through roof...according to the article "Nobody was injured when the golf-ball sized object, weighing nearly as much as a can of soup, struck the home and embedded itself in a wall"...officials said the mysterious metallic object was not from an aircraft...what makes this the biggest story of the day are the comments from Carlton Pryor, a professor at Rutgers University:

"Approximately 20 to 50 rock-like objects fall every day over the entire planet...It's not all that uncommon to have rocks rain down from heaven...These are usually rocky or a mixture of rock and metal."

Is anyone else concerned about rocks raining down from the sky? That seems really bad. Should I be wearing a hard hat?
