I think that Pluto is totally being wronged and should be grandfathered in.
Come on out, River. The nice man wants to kidnap you.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
But doesn't Neptune's cross the path of Pluto's? Is this some sort of plot?
That crossed my mind too. Um... Neptune was there first.
OK, there must be more to the rules that what I quoted.

Neptune totally has the right of way

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
I'm watching the PR rerun, since I was on the phone with my mother for the first 15 minutes of last night's show, and when they pick the models, the four slim women are picked first. No surprise, I know. And I know the majority of clothes for plus-size women are ugly and shapeless. Believe me, I know. But I'm still grumpy. Watch an episode of What Not to Wear, for god's sakes. Big flowy clothes just make big women look bigger.

Because books.
Dana, that's why I gave Kayne points for the pants he made for Michael's mom. Only problem was, Michael Kors was right -- they should have been full-length and straight, not cropped.
Interesting that this issue never came up in the last two seasons. Also since I don't think Allison designed her outfit last week without disregard for her model. I think a cinched waist is usually going to give more of a figure/silhouette, but stiff paper is a pretty unforgiving material.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
* It is large enough that it has cleared the orbit through which it moves
I'm not sure I understand this. Does it mean nothing else is in it's orbital path?

Yeah (with the exception of moons). This rule prevents an asteroid from being a planet, because there are bunches of other asteroids in similar orbits.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Part of the thing, though, Dana, is how hard it is to convince some of the people on What Not To Wear that hiding is not best. And then the designers were supposed to work with what their clients wanted, after a half-hour conversation. I'm not saying the whole thing isn't jacked up.
I am seriously remarkably not cranky. Even after I just got caught in the rain for a 15 minute walk in my fresh-from-the-cleaners suit!

I love the premise: Mel Gibson has decided to make good with the Jewish community, one Jew at a time.
I remain cranky, which has nothing to do with Mel Gibson. Okay, maybe a little to do with him. Why not?
