Greedo Never Fired

Every so often the above gem shows up on the internet and all the little angst ridden, revolutionary wanna-bees line up in the comments to say “sooo true” and “more so now than ever” and I get irate every time. So this time it will be ME posting it and it will be ME who comments on it. You are welcome to comment as well, but I was first. This time. GO TO WORK While growing up discover something you enjoy doing and are good at and find someone who needs that something done and arrange for them to pay you to do it.

FOLLOW FASHION Wear clothes because other wise you will die of exposure. Wear the clothes you find comfortable. Wear the clothes you find help represent who you are.

Looks like the old debate has returned and astronomers are once again arguing over Pluto's planet status. I personally would like to see Pluto remain in its "NOT A PLANET" status. But for a somewhat unorthodox reason. I often use the fact that Pluto is no longer considered a planet as a way to point out one of the important differences between science and religion. It is a great example of new technology... providing new information... that causes the scientific communty to admit fault in it's existing information. No adherence to tradition, no injured pride, no accusations of heresy and no excommunication. You just inform the world that billions of books, posters, documentaries and science fair models are WRONG. And when the world replies "COME ON!" Science replies "TOUGH SH*T" this is science. And if you are thinking "Hey man Pluto should be a Planet, It always has been, its an accepted fact." Well then you have missed your call...
