Dwarf Status

To celebrate the anniversary of the finding of Neptune in 1846, this would be a good day to sign the Pluto Petition, saying that you believe Pluto should be reinstated as a planet and not just a dwarf planet according to the 2006 Prague Conference of astronomers.
Was Tom Thumb any less of a human than you or I?

Dwarfs - dwarfs- you must be into
the dwarf business now. I watch
the TLC channel that has a program
about the Rolofs who are a dwarf
couple with two normal sized kids
and one drawf. I enjoy watching
that, but thats about the most
I know about dwarfs. I know Jess
is scared of them. It is sort of
sad to think that Pluto has been
a planet for years and now they
took them off of the planet list.,
but guess there are more concerns
right now than that problem. The
big boys are trying to figure out
how to save the economy. It might
be too late. They said yesterday
that the FBI was even looking into
it - so??????

I just read about some dwarves that were smuggled in baggage onto a bus (in the undercarriage). They got out after the bus got going and stole from other's baggage. Guess they took in quite a haul...pretty smart, huh?
