Divert Your Course

This is the actual radio conversation of a US naval ship with Canadian authorities off the coast of Newfoundland in October 1995. Radio Conversation released by the chief of naval operations, 10-10-95.

CANADIANS: Please divert your course 15 degrees to the south to avoid collision.

AMERICANS: Recommend you divert your course 15 degrees to the north to avoid a collision.

CANADIANS: Negative. You will have to divert your course 15 degrees to the south to avoid collision.

AMERICANS: This is the captain of a US Navy ship. I say again, divert YOUR course.

CANADIANS: No, I say again, you divert YOUR course.

AMERICANS: This is the Aircraft Carrier US LICOLN, the second largest ship in the United States Atlantic fleet. We are accompanied with three Destroyers, three Cruisers and numerous support vessels. I DEMAND that you change your course 15 degrees north. I say again, that's one-five degrees north, our counter-measures will be undertaken to ensure the safety of this ship.

CANADIANS: This is a lighthouuse. Your call.

Mickey Mouse Protest

Walt Disney’s Mickey Mouse shouted in anger as soon as he heard the news that Pluto is no longer a planet. Mickey calls the decision the worst and most discriminating decision in the planet’s history.

Mickey is now gathering signatures from all over the movie industry to reinstate Pluto back to planetary status. His goal is to gather at least 1000 signatures which he will then send to the International Astronomical Union.

“I’ve been playing with Pluto ever since he was small,” says Goofy in a quick interview. “I think this is absurd!” says Donald on the other hand. Minnie Mouse on the other hand just couldn’t stop crying about the matter.

We tried to get Pluto’s own words about the situation but all he can do for now was bark in agony.

“I’ll never stop until I get what I want,” was Mickey’s final statement.

We tried to get the side of the International Astronomical Union but all they said was, “We think Mickey’s confused. We’re talking about a planet here. Not some showbiz dog.”

Jedi’s poised to attack Planet Earth

The Jedi Masters and their allies from across the galaxy are poised to send a steady stream of attacks on this very little planet called Earth. The Jedi Masters, amidst all their training are so mad at the International Astronomical Union (IAU) because of their recent definition of the term planet.

According to the new definition, planets should orbit only the Sun, effectively demoting all extra-solar planets to non-planetary status. The Jedi’s and the entire Republic calls it absurd. “Our technology is far better than yours and our race has been around long before you started walking on two feet,” says Princess Leia. “This is certainly against the force, we should take immediate action.” says Luke Skywalker who is now the head of the Jedi council.
“I’m confused,” says C3P0 and R2D2 just kept on beeping in his own robotic language.

Apparently, the entire universe is running amok at the decision made by our little race. Earthlings, I think the best that we can do for now is prepare.
