"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Did they have a flux capacitor?

Only if you reversed the polarity of the tachyon flow.

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

Worth 1000 Pluto contest.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Do you suppose Pluto has a blog?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Does anyone have access to today's Wall Street Journal? There's a funny headline about astrologers and Scorpios having issues with the whole Pluto thing.

WTF did astrologers do before Pluto was discovered?

Also, will the decision affect the availability of Plutonium?

It's going to be demoted from an element to a compound.

Thanks, Tom! wsj.com told me I needed to be a subscriber to access the article, so it didn't even occur to me to look elsewhere.

Pluto's demotion divides astrologers, troubles Scorpios
The minor-planet faction takes the news in stride; astrolabe adjusts charts.

That is funny, right?
