I am now just beginning to get excited about Pluto.
And Charon.
Oh, and Nix and Styx.
And Kerberus.
And that other one.
Looking forward to May, although the best photos won't be out 'til September probably
That's not a leopard!

That's Hydra the farthest out of Pluto's known moons. I doubt, though, that there many snakes on board - not even nine of them. It will be interesting, Spotty, as the albedo of each part of the Pluto system seems to be different. If it really is, as often claimed, some sort of ice block then why is it so? Excited? No, but looking forward to any images that NASA receives. :smile:

Jed the Lurcher.
Lump in throat time after seeing the photo of him crashed in front of the fire, and the story about him dragging his bed in front of the living room door so the family can't leave without him knowing...

The second photo was more so I thought. Reading the NYT now, old chap?

Currently house-hunting to move in with the girlf. Part of this means advertising my room on Spareroom and dealing with the enquiries. F*ck me there's some "interesting" folk out there.

From a girl who couldn't spell her own name - "Emily" in her profile, "Emely" in her message - to one guy, who otherwise seemed normal, but decided to start his introductory message with a limerick! The mind boggles.

Clearly you'd want to leave your current "housemates" with an interesting replacement. If any of them say "Well Pru, have the lambs stopped screaming?", I'd give them the gig immediately. :twisted:
