The Only Logical Conclusion? 
    There seems to be an asteroid with the name of ‘Oumuamua’ that is being monitored by Breakthrough Listen, which is a project that monitors over one million such things as this asteroid, listening for signs of intelligent life. 
   Now first of all, it someone gave me a name like ‘Oumuamua’, I might not be too keen on answering either, but that’s just me. There has been no response from this big rock which would suggest there is no intelligent life aboard. 
    So, the conclusion from some of the people connected to this project is that there is life on this asteroid, but that this life is just ignoring us. 
    So what’s worse, that there’s no life on this asteroid, or that there is life aboard and we’re just too insignificant to bother answering? The latter would be a real put-down. 
    But one thing these people haven’t thought of, or at least they’re not talking about, is that this asteroid, or the life forms on it, think they’re sneaking up on us. I can imagine that the life on this asteroid has been monitoring our media for the past several years. They’ve watched our primetime TV shows and have come to the conclusion that the males of the species are dumber than soap, and not near as clean, and that the females of the species are obsessed with how they look, and spend most of their time trying to manage their mates. The children of the species don’t respect their parents or any other older members of society and are continually making bad decisions, but then seem to get it all straightened out within sixty minutes. 
    On the upside for these asteroid life forms is the entertainment they derive from watching the political leaders on this planet. I’m guessing there are times when they are laughing so hard they have difficulty steering their asteroid, which just may be our salvation.
