What´s with you guys? Uranus is a soar and tender place, and it seems it will be years into the future before we´ll be able to plant our flag there.

You didn't include Earth because like all Libertarians you have no idea who it belongs to Wink

It's amazing that grown people are making the same Uranus jokes I heard in fourth grade.

it is stil part of the solar system but is not labeld as a planet, just a dwarf planet, since its eliptical travel around the sun differs from the other 8 planets (it happens in its travels that its route crosses Neptune so that Neptune became in over 200 years the outer planet not Pluto (when Pluto was stil considered a planet) i think it even are close to pass through Uranuss course in it's travels), and that it actually is a part of the outer astroid belt, where even larger globes then Pluto have bin found,which futher disprooves Plutos claim for being part of the planet category, even though Pluto have it
s own satelite the moon Charon, which can give it the title dwarf planets, and their are dwarf planets that are larger then Pluto, hell even earths Moon is larger then Pluto. 

everything that are attached to the suns gravity pull and have a connection to the suns total gravitival limits are part of the Solar System, the System of smaller globes that are totaly dependent on Suns gravity and Pluto is yes far out yet a very much a part of the Solar System


Well technically everything in the universe is attached to the sun's gravitational pull.

Yes Pluto does "cross" Uranus' orbit. It actually comes much closer to Uranus than it ever does to Neptune.

Hey, the Klaatu members were close to their 30's when they made Anus Of Uranus on their debut album, back in 1976.

i saw once a guy being interviewed by some TV and his name was Mike Litoris as said by the caption..... which is not likely, but I guess they never caught on to it until after they aired it.
 
 
I know it has nothing to do with the subject at hand, but for some reasons, this camev back to me, and I just had to share it with the first guy i spoke or wrote to.

 if i haddent had Phonetics last semester i would not be able to understand what would effect such a pronounsiation, i think it is effected by a vowel reductuin  the /e/ is removed from the speeking form, it is a type of Elision which is a linguistical term for when a vowel is reduced
 Elision is the omission of one or more sounds (such as a vowel, a consonant, or a whole syllable) in a word or phrase, producing a result that is easier for the speaker to pronounce. Sometimes, sounds may be elided for euphonic effect.

their is also a possibel Assimilation taking place as well but im not sure

I look up, I'm almost blinded

by the warmth of what's inside me

and the taste that's in my soul,

but I'm dead inside as I stand alone...

I thought it was different to what you say.... Pluto "crosses" Neptune's path (on two different occasion per revolution), but get's physically closer to Uranus, because their revolution-cycles are closer (for the moment).... Neptune is generally on the other side of the system by then....
 
Not that we could ever imagine a collision between Neptune and Pluto, though.

That is true, but it also briefly crosses Uranus' path too.

If we're not specifically talking about progressive planets I quite like Planet Claire.
