June 18, 2007: Pluto: It started out so great, you know? I was "Planet X." I was beloved! Heck, they even named a cartoon dog after me! But then the "scientists" decided I wasn't big enough. A "Dwarf Planet," they called me. And now? I'm a nobody! Kepler: Uh... I gotta go. Pluto: Sure! Just ditch me like everyone else! Pluto's a loser! Go laugh it up with your pals!
June 20, 2007: Pluto: My Very Eager Mother Just Served Us Nine Pizzas! Mercury, Venus, Earthy, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune, Pluto! See? Without me, you have no planet mnemonic! Al: My Very Eager Mother Just Served Us Nachos. Pluto: Nachos are a poor substitute for pizza. Al: A dwarf planet is a poor substitute for a planet.
June 22, 2007: Dana: Yesterday was the first day of summer. Pluto: Nice. My summer is just around the corner. Dana: When is that, Pluto? Pluto: Umm... 2029. Dana: 22 years is "around the corner?" Pluto: I know! And before you know it, fall will be here in 2108! Where does the time go?
