I Just saw this Movie.

Plot Outline: From his hospital bed, a writer suffering from a skin disease hallucinates musical numbers and paranoid plots.What I Thought…..
A very strange movie.
Any expectation of what this movie might be is useless.
I can’t even start to explain it.
Robert Downey Jr is great
and Mel Gibson as the balding psychiatrist is well done.
Poor old Pluto and its moon Charon
there was 9, then we thought maybe 12?
But now the # is 8.
Planets" Rule Their Space
According to the new definition, approved by the IAU, a planet in our solar system is a celestial body that meets three criteria:
* It orbits the sun.
* It's round. More technically, it "has sufficient mass for its self-gravity to overcome rigid body forces so that it assumes a hydrostatic equilibrium (nearly round) shape."
* It "has cleared the neighborhood around its orbit." Basically, it dominates its part of space.
That last criterion revokes Pluto's planetary license--little Pluto doesn't dominate anything. The only planets are Mercury (the smallest), Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune.
I Just saw this Movie.

A young father and his infant son are beset by forces of evil and corruption.
They wander China, upholding their sense of honor and protecting the weak.
When they are forced into combat, spectacular and hilarious fast-motion
kung fu sequences follow. In the end, they must call on all of their abilities
in a battle royale, to attempt to vanquish a supernatural
man-monster or die trying.What I Thought…..
The little kid is great!
The dubbing job is wacky?!
Cool story
Would you buy this?
They come on an adhesive bandage replica that sticks to skin and encloses a candy ‘scab’ for licking so you can keep some candy on you (hidden) for licking any time. These don’t actually hit the market until September of 2006, but when they do finally come out, I predict they will be a huge hit with kids across the country (and parents and adults will despise their very existence). I know I will be picking up a box, even if they are gross.
12 planets?
So this would mean we get planets, dwarf planets and plutons. The bottom line for planets is that they orbit a star and that they are massive enough for it's gravity to pull it into a nearly sperical shape.
As usual this all falls into the 'you can't please all the people all the time' reality of human thought but people adapt. When I was a kid Jupiter only had 12 satellites, Galileo only had to deal with 4 but now we have 63 and counting..

I am posting from the fair.We come every year and its a blast!The kids are off riding an elephant.I am tacking the chance to catch some shade.I'll post some pics later.Sussex county fair
