Why isn't Pluto a Planet???

Pluto is a Planet!!!

I was extremely sadden when Pluto was demoted from its planetary status about 3 years ago. I grew up learning about 9 planets... NINE!!! Not 8!!! NINE!!! Besides, I love odd numbers while even numbers are a total turn off. I don't know why, I just like odd numbers. Maybe it's because I'm odd? Who know? But yes, I was super sad... and I will always think of dear Pluto as a planet, the 9th, forgotten planet, denied its rights. Why the sudden rant? I saw someone driving while walking to work today whose car had a bumper sticker in the rear that read, "Honk if Pluto is a planet." If I had my car with me, I would've honked, because it is, damn it! Ah yes... I'll be telling children in the near future, "When I was your age, Pluto was a planet." Woah, that makes me sound like I'm an old granny or something. Haha.

Anyway, in light of the planet rank, here's something interesting:
If countries were planet, then...
Jupiter would be Russia
Saturn would be Canada
Uranus would be Greenland
Neptune would be Saudi Arabia
Earth would be Tajikistan
Venus would be Czech Republic
Mars would be Switzerland
Mercury would be El Salvador
... and Pluto would be Cape Verde.

LOL, apparently I'm not from a planet, but from the moon! lol

You Are From the Moon

You can vibe with the steady rhythms of the Moon.
You're in touch with your emotions and intuition.
You possess a great, unmatched imagination - and an infinite memory.
Ultra-sensitive, you feel at home anywhere (or with anyone).
A total healer, you light the way in the dark for many.





You Should Rule Mercury

Close to sun, Mercury has very long days - and is rarely visible to the rest of the solar system.

You are perfect to rule Mercury, because you live for the present - and can truly enjoy a day that goes on forever.
Like Mercury, you are quick and elusive. Your wit is outstanding, and you can win any verbal sparring match.

Some people see you as superficial, but in truth, you just play many roles and have many interests.
A great manipulator, you usually get what you want from people. And they're happy to give it to you.
