The Truth Is Out There??

I hope you can see this, because I'm doing it as hard as I can.

Ok in honor of the X-Files coming out this week, I am going to post this story via AICN.  This is a conversation between Dr. Edgar Mitchell, a former Apollo 14 astronaut, and someone from Kerrang radio, in which Mitchell claims that aliens exist, and that the government has been covering it up for 60 years.  Cool stuff or maybe the ramblings of a Professor Farnsworthesque crazy scientist.  Who knows maybe walking on the moon for over 9hrs just completely makes a person insane, or maybe he has seen shit that we only think exists in the X-Files.  Story here, and more news coverage here, here, here, and here, if you’re interested.

Fuck yooooo!

Seriously I know this seems like old new, but it’s not.  The status of Pluto has once again been changed this time to a plutoid.  This is the third different classification of Pluto is the last year or so which is making it hard for teachers, but I’m sure publishers love it as it gives them a reason to put out yet another revision.

Pluto was once a planet. Then, a dwarf planet. And as of last week, a plutoid. The fall from grace has teachers, parents and educational publishers struggling to keep up, while kids remain loyal to their favorite, the ninth planet. Underscore planet.

So I am here to say that I am with the little kiddies on this one.  Fuck yooo you nerdy, googly-eyed scientists, I am going to continue to call Pluto a planet.  Check it here.
