I couldn't make this up.

Dark Side of Uranus' Rings Reveals Dramatic Changes. (http://www.sciam.com/article.cfm?chanID=sa003&articleID=94197ED3-E7F2-99DF-3198D2F6F6EF2FF7&ref=rss).

Goatse anyone? :goofy:

Despite the hilarious title of the article (and this thread) that's actually an interesting bit of information. Now if you'll excuse me, I'll leave this thread for fear of forcing myself to make horrible jokes. Good day. :kitty:

I agree, that is in fact an interesting article. But really, I'd like to know the person who named the planet Uranus, the filth bag. ;)

Sir William Herschel named it after the mythical god Uranus on March 13, 1781. There's your answer Piney. :kitty:

Thank you, mrzy. (That doesn't work like that, does it?)


Uranus is the Latinized form of Ouranos (Οὐρανός), the Greek word for sky.

Ah, so it's the Romans' fault. :rolleyes:

Thanks for the announcement. I think there is a better place for it though than in this topic... :shrug:

Glenn, I'm telling you this very nicely... I do NOT need you to tell me how to do anything around here... especially my job. Thank you very much anyway.

Interesting article.

See, what you really should be asking is what moron decided to name that particular part of your anatomy that.

Someone who had a sense of humor and wanted everyone to laugh about it in decades to come?

The worst headline I've ever seen was about a brutal murder where a guy killed his wife with a hammer. It was "Man Hammers Wife to Death" and I burst out laughing when I saw it. Fuck!

The Buffalo newspaper once ran an article about how kids were illegally attending school districts that they didn't live in thus effecting the tax base and what not. Their headline?

"Backdoor Entry"

"Freddie Star Ate My Hamster" would be a cool name for a punk band.
