Pluto Doomed!
Well Pluto seems to be doomed as a planet. Destined to go the way of the Brontosaur. Curse these scientists and their tricky science stuff.
Edit: I am reminded of the famous saying: I said nothing when they came for the Brontosaurus, as I am not a Brontosaurus. I said nothing when they came for Pluto, as I am not a Pluton. What will I say when they come for my gravity?

They can kiss Uranus? Seriously, what’s with the Plutons? I don’t have anything invested one way or the other with Pluto, but plutonian or pluton? If we have to learn about those in grade school… well it’s a lot more to learn about than just nine planets. On the plus side, no one disputes Dr. Brown naming a big ice thing after Xena. Ya boo dee, ya boo dee, ya boo dee Xena!

They can take my Pluto when they can pry it from my cold dead posters of the solar system.

Plutonians are the beings who live on pluto, obviously. (Cartoon fleas, perhaps?) Plutons are part of an atom, the ones so far from the middle that they’re really really cold.
Have I got my science right?

Carol, would you mind substitute teaching Science in my kids’ school? I think they need the cool reason of your mind.

Well, maybe not substitute teaching, but I could tutor just a few kids so they have the extra edge in school. Somebody has to ruin the curve, and I say they dare to do it! I hope you don’t mind school prayer, because I have an incatation to Faeries that’s really nice to start off a class on horticulture.
