Faux Planets, Fictional Planets, and Surprise Visits

Time for my first long post in a while. The reason for the length being that I have a lot to talk about. To begin with, I've just recently found out that everything I know is wrong. Well, maybe not everything, but did You know that there are no longer nine planets???!?! I know, mind boggling. They (whoever they are) have decided that Pluto is no longer a planet! http://antwrp.gsfc.nasa.gov/apod/ap060828.html This is a site that Dad gave to me to see them. Ceres and Pluto are good names but that other one is bogus I'm convinced. Anyway, that's the first cool/crazy thing on my list. The second, by my title, is Fictional Planets. Now, Star Trek is not my forte and I know very little about it but we did go to the Star Trek Experience in Las Vegas and it was pretty fun. Anyone who's been anywhere with me will attest to the fact that I have trouble doing new things. Thankfully, I didn't overload and the two rides were actually pretty fun. One was kind of like the Muppet thing at California Adventure but more Borgy and less Gonzoy. You sit in a theater type thing and put on your 3-D glasses and the seats poke to and stuff spits at you to provide the "Fourth Dimension." The other was a simulator ride that took you through areas where plenty people had gone before. It almost made me sick but I was able to ward off the motion sickness. The third and probably greatest thing over shadowed the Star Trek stuff. Two and a half people came to visit: Zachary, Brenda, and Other!!!!!! Yay! I think most of the angles have been covered by Brenda and Lauri's blogs but I had to mention it anyway. We had a whole bunch of fun even though they only stayed for one whole day. It was extraneously fun! Again, I would appreciate your comments on the Faux planets or whatever. Have a good rest of the week!
