Is That Your Final Answer?

So what is all this shit about Pluto not being a planet? Instead of having all these nerds looking for alien life or Armageddon sized death rocks they are all debating each other in a sealed room. I guess I have no problem with them trying to classify things a bit better but from what I hear their definition of a planet, while excluding Pluto, now opens up the chance for many more planets to be named. Now middle school science projects will take far more styrofoam balls and now that cute little saying we all learned in school is totally useless. Then again how much of what you learned in science class really useless once you graduated. I honestly think that Beakman's World, Mr. Wizard and Bill Nye The Science Guy taught me more than my high school science teacher and I probably remember their stuff better. The debate might be over but it seems a few folks are trying to get things switched back. I really don't give a shit either way but if they do reach a conclusion maybe they can send out postcards to everyone just we know what their final word on the matter is. Also if they can print a new saying to remember the order than would be great because now My Very Energetic Mother Just Sent Us Nine just sounds fucking stupid.

My blog was down again the other day. My renewal for my domain is coming up soon and I'm looking into some programs that will help me post my entries on my domain since it is far more reliable. WordPress is free and works on my site but I am absolutely stumped as to half the shit on their page so I highly doubt I will be able to install or use it without some outside help.

Since the free download of Texas Hold 'Em showed up on XBOX Live Arcade less than a week ago I have played over 1,000 hands. I can't say I'm any better at the game because my bankroll hasn't grown that much. It's a really fun game and it's very addicting. I'm not really into gambling and it has me hooked. The first and only time I went to a casino I think 3 of us split 20.00 and we actually got bored and grew tired of winning and wasting time inside the place. We eventually gave our remaining coins away to some random person who was far more obsessed than we were. I'd never gamble with real money again because it's dumb and when playing on Live I have no self control or common sense when I play.
