You aint no planet

From the AP wire services:

"PRAGUE, Czech Republic (Aug. 24) - Leading astronomers approved historic new planet guidelines Thursday -- downsizing Earth's neighborhood from nine principal heavenly bodies to eight by demoting distant Pluto."

This is just Goofy.

So is Frito now an official planet?

The timing seems to suggest so.

these same astronomers have recently requested that the name of the planet Uranus be changed due to all of the childish snickering at the mention of the name. They suggest that it be changed to Urectum.

I could go for a planet Frito (or sixty) just about now...mmm.

You beat me to this story nooprah.

But if one of them had to go, it REALLY should have been Uranus. Nothing against it, of course. We've never been properly introduced.

So what next???? Australia isn't really a "continent?" Burger King isn't really "Fast Food?" Lake Ontario isn't "Great?"

I can't process all of this new information. Pass the Fritos please.

And by the way cake...cute. It took me a while.

That mascot guy in the Burger King commercials isn't really a king (sorry).

Thanks...mostly I just amuse myself, I think. I probably need to get out more.

Hey, quit hogging the Fritos!
