Town Grouch Ebensburg, Alberta, Canada, a lax an official Town Grouch who is licensed to pester, grumble, complain and criticize for a whole year. Slow poke! From the time Pluto was officially discovered in 1932 the time its status as a planet was rescinded in 2006, it had not completed a full orbit around the sun. Early explorers used watermelons as canteens.

It’s all about paper-work. If we don’t declassify Pluto, then we have to include all the other objects as planets.
