Pluto Demoted: Say It Ain't So!

[galaxygoddess63]

I can't believe it! How could such a thing happen? How dare they screw with my history? I'm talking about the recent demotion of Pluto from planet to "spherical" body. Well, whatever it was, it was a demotion, Buddy Ro, make no mistake! So what if it's orbit is a bit quirky? It doesn't spin around like the it's fellow planets. It's different than our own, not what we would call "normal", know what I'm saying? Hmmm, I don't know about you, but that sounds kinda like prejudism, does it not? So what if Pluto is small and revolves to a different drummer? So do many of us humans, truth be told. We call them "mentally challenged", but it means "********" on the streets, okay? I don't care what they say! Pluto has and always will remain, at least to this galaxygoddess, the ninth planet in the Solar System, BAR NONE!!
