Bad News: Someone ate all the pizza!

Now you may be wondering, what pizza? Where is the pizza? Who ate the pizza? You may be enraged that they didn't share the pizza... And with tears in my eyes and butterflies in my stomach I will share this awful news about the pizza. Where is the pizza? About 3 billion miles away. Who ate the pizza? Over 2000 scientists in Prague today. What is the pizza? The pizza is Pluto. And that's right folks the sad news is that we can no longer use the mnemonic "My Very Eager Mother Just Served Us Nine Pizzas," because sadly today the International Astronomical Union stripped Pluto of the planetary status it has held since its discovery in 1930. That's right folks everything we learned in school was wrong... Well at least the stuff about Pluto... Because Pluto is no longer a planet.

This morning I knew that by sunset our solar system could be considered very differently. Today the vote could have gone 2 ways, either leaving us with twelve planets or 8. And the latter was chosen.

And so now this frozen sphere orbiting the sun that is smaller then our own moon, is a dwarf. I'll let this shocking news sink in... Feel free to talk about your feelings by leaving a comment... Terribly sorry.

Just a side note... This vote has terrible effects on astrology... :)
