All that needs to be said is contained in one letter.

It seems that Pluto shan’t go down without a fight after all. I was notfied of an article in which Alan Stern, head of NASA’s New Horizons mission to Pluto, blasted the decision to demote Pluto to “dwarf planet” status. I was also emailed by a group of people who have started similar petitions to mine, and we have decided to pool our efforts on a separate website, PleaseSavePluto.org. I’m going to export the current signatures on my petition to that site, so feel free to check it out and witness the resistance.
We got your back, Pluto…

Like many individuals around the world, I was horrified to discover that Pluto has been demoted from planet status. This arbitrary decision prompted me to create a petition, which I encourage you to sign immediately. If Pluto can so easily be discarded, how much longer before some governing body decides that Earth is no longer a planet? Then what? I ask. Then what?

Update: Please see my second Pluto post for information about the online coordinated effort to “save Pluto” and the proper website you should be visiting to make your voice heard.

I have just witnessed the funniest video(s) I have seen in decades, so I thought I would pass the savings on to you, my loyal fan base. Stephen Colbert appeared at the White House Correspondents’ Association Dinner as the comic relief, and as you have probably heard on the news, he gave Bush that special brand of “truthiness” that only he can dole out. I am utterly amused by his ability to sarcastically lambaste conservatives and liberals equally, all with that “harmless prig” quality that defies true indignation. So without further ado, check the technique.

In what was one of the most lethargic Super Bowls ever–despite a record-breaking run and interception return–the Seahawks failed to get the job done. Congrats to Pittsburgh, I guess. The dullness of the game has obviously infected even my writing ability, so I shall stop here.
