Of the things listed, that's probably the most probable. A few weeks ago there was a murder/suicide in a building adjacent to this one (I'm going to have to assume a gun was used). Could be someone tried to mimic that and missed, however there was no indentation in the glass last night (before it fell apart this morning), so that rules out the bullet theory.

Building settling, maybe a temperature thing, or some weird pressure thing. Evidently the glass was not of great quality and something turned out to be the trip wire this time around.

Whatever, I'm just hoping it does not happen again.

Dude this is just plain weird. Are you sure there's no children around that don't like the Kobster? I can't imagine that at all, but its a possibility.

The reason I ask is onetime I was playing when I was little and accidentally threw a rock through a road grader window, and you wouldn't beleive the noise it made. Sounded like a shotgun. I was only in the 2nd grade, so it didn't get thrown very hard either.

It may be possible that it could be this

It could have been someone wanting to scare you or something and since you said you didnt find anything(bullet, brink, rock etc..) I thought about these shotshell pistol bullets. Just a thought.

I'm on the 17th floor. If some kid threw a rock then I want to find him. Not to punish him, but to act as his agent/manager and represent him as the most awesome pitcher in Major League Baseball.

Wow, 17th floor? I don't even think I've ever been in a building that was 17 stories, much less 17th floor. Been higher in an airplane, but not a building.

Of course there was the arch once....But that wasn't really a building.

No way. Seriously? Dude, you need to get out more.

Well here in these parts we build wider, not upwards. Heck I don't know why, but schools, malls, hospitals large buildings are all like 3 miles long around here. Of course nothings very large here either and not really crowded. Although you should come to Jonesboro (about 10 miles from Paragould and getting closer by the minute) at Christmas time, there's some pretty crappy amounts of traffic around. It's weird, town gets more crowded every year at Christmas, and then it's like people don't go away after Christmas. It's the yearly cycle of population increase. The bad part is they (city officials) aren't doing anything about taking care of the extra traffic either.

Kinda strange that our part of the world would be growing so quickly too. I guess it's because you go anywhere else in Eastern Arkansas and there is absolutely nothing but slums and ghettos and occasionally a farmer will have a really nice house.
