Did anyone else just see something very large entering the upper atmosphere about 5 min ago. More then a small meteorite, it seriously exploded into a flash of fragments.

About three years ago, I saw a really bright white/blue flash of something burning that lasted about 3 seconds as it streaked from West to East overhead by Castle Rock. Never saw any reports of it, so I guess it was just my wife and I that saw it. Seemed pretty special at the time. [Tooth]
No. I always miss the good stuff.
WTF didn't you call me?! I miss all the cool stuff.....
Most likely a meteor. 10 years ago, I saw one and actually HEARD it sizzling down near Penrose, CO. I found out later it is called a "sonic bolide". Much more common to be seen here than say Cape Canaveral,Florida because we are a mile higher.
