Planet Vulcan Discovered! ---- or 2003 UB313 is a really sorry excuse for a name.
A new planet was discovered, larger than Pluto and further away. It orbits 45 degrees off the main plane of the solar system. Space geeks will argue whether to designate this new body a planet or a kuiper belt object, but who cares, really? Call it whatever you want, just not 2003 UB313.
The one thing I care about, the one thing that would possibly make this whole story interesting, is for these space-geeks to come up with a better naming system. NOBODY out here in the real world cares about a new planet called 2003 UB313. Call it "the planet Vulcan," and you'll get some headlines.

The latest buzz says the name will be Xena. Xena the warrior princess. Ok, it's better than 2003 UB313.
Also- The space geeks were not planning on letting the news out just yet, they had been threatened by a hacker who found out about it and said he'd tell if they didn't. Thank you mystery hacker dude.
Dude. Xena the Warrior Princess? This is so cliche! Figures the pasty white space geeks would come up with a name like that. I mean, she does provide much beat-off material for the D&D crowd. I think when I discover my own planet I will name him Clay Aiken. Ooo-Ahhh!
I know this is bizarre, but, does anybody know if UB40 was named after some planet or something?
I so think if should be called Kelly Clarkson, she is far more talented that that Closet case Clay Fakin Str8!
Shit! I know you are NOT talking SHIT about the father of MY child NOR are you pretending not to know who the great Clay is. If you all would get out from behind your geeky little computers and remove your oh so constricting D&D costumes, then maybe your pasty assed brains would receive much needed oxygen and work a bit better. Kelly Clarkson?? Sounds like something my friend Rob would say. He is always trying to get up in my grill and prove his undying love for me. He's jealous of my relationship with Clay.
You all wish you were cool but you are nothing but posers.
Boo Hiss!
You're all nuts! Clay Aiken is at best an asteroid, and Kelly Clarkson? didnt she have a lame movie or something? whatever.
Xena is a great name, I prefer Gabrielle the blond, but the whole leather and whip thing Xena has going on is nice too.
Alright, I have only one thing to say about Clay. He said in the TV Guide interview
"I only hope that someday I'll love someone enough that I can write a love song."
AWWWWWW how sweeeeeet.
I predict Clay will be crashing out of the closet well before he writes any love songs.
Has this become a Clay Blog?
UB40 was named after an unemployment form.
I am against Idolatry, American or otherwise.
