Astronomers declare that Pluto (pictured at left) is not a planet. He (or it) is now considered a "dwarf planet," which apparantly are also not planets.A bunch of nerd astronomers in Prague have pointed out that Pluto does not orbit the sun. Or maybe it was a bunch of three-year-olds with coloring books. In any case, it's now conclusively concluded that Pluto actually orbits Mickey Mouse. Also, rather than being way out at the end of our galaxy, as previously thought, Pluto has been relocated to Tampa, FL.
I look forward to the discovery of Angry Dwarf planets. Hi Ho.

My main concern always was why was Pluto a dog and a pet so he had to sleep outside, but Goofy was a dog and owned his own house, drove a car, spoke English (albeit with an odd cajun accent), and wore pants.
Examine your own confusion, as the Buddhists might say. Goofy wears pants, speaks, and owns property and is therefore a man (even if he is also an anthropomorphized dog). Pluto does not speak a discernable language, wears a dog collar, and owns no property -- his dog house is owned by Mickey, presumably. Feel free to extract untoward political subtest from all this.
By the way, Walt Disney and Ray Croc (early McDonald's empressario) served in the same WWI ambulance corps. I think it was there that they jointly decided to replace American culture with commerce.
