So what does that make Pluto now, a moon? Laughing

Why are they deciding this now? Then again one less planet for kids to memorize. Laughing

Oh great, now that song I learned on Blues Clues to help me remember the planets isn't valid on the last part anymore. RATS Laughing

Seems they've decided Pluto is a 'dwarf planet,' which for some reason excludes it from being an actual planet.

But have no fear! I have THE SOLUTION!

Not that anyone would go for it.

Well, at least with all these 'dwarf planets' they've just announced, we won't have SM fangirls creating 'Sailor X' the Nth. (I can't wait for all the 'Sailor Xenas'.)

Pluto: Hey, Charon! We're not planets anymore! Now what?
Charon: Uh... I dunno. Hey, wanna get drunk?
Pluto: All RIGHT!

Oops! I did forget Saturn. And where did that random T come in? Oh, well. Since they've thrown out Pluto, we can throw out Saturn. Very Happy

Um... the invisible planet Tiberius? Very Happy

I did think of throwing out Saturn, but I think it's a bit too large to be lobbed that easily - it is a beach-ball class celestial sphere, after all.

I'm a scorpio, and Pluto is meant o be my ruling planet, and it's also, astrologically the most powerful...although in ancient times my ruling planet would have been mars....but still, I like Pluto Sad

Syera · Posted: Wed Sep 06, 2006 9:18 pm Post subject:

Actually, it's both.

What I'm curious about now is with Pluto demoted and several other Pluto-sized objects floating around, are astrologers going to attach the aggies to other signs, or is Pluto going to be removed? And if the aggies are included, exactly how does Xena influence our destinies? *Jibblies*
