The discovery of 2003 UB313 and 2005 EL61 has brought up the debate of what exactly counts as a planet. If there's reason to believe there are dozens of Pluto-sized objects floating in the Kuiper Belt then it is definitely time to reconsider the current definition.

Why do cats not like sweet foods? Because they can't taste them. Well, isn't that novel.

A New Way to GROW
Eyezmaze
Some of you may have played the super bizarre puzzle game GROW. Now there's a new verison that adds an RPG element to it. Kimberly figured it out before I did.
There's a also a new version of Tontie that's a bit easier. Hatch and Pelpet are new to me, and equally odd.

For the Glory of Thailand!
The Last Knights
This is a game where you act as an military officer under the setting of the 17th Century world. I've joined Thailand in their quest to vanquish the Ottoman Empire. Actually, I got injured and I'm currently stuck in Thailand. My favorite feature so far is that I can name my soldiers, so I'm naming them after my friends. When I can afford to do so, I'll add you as a soldier and let you know how you'r performing.

David Lynch Offers World Peace for Only $7 Billion
Guardian Unlimited
Filmmaker David Lynch says he can help bring about world peace if you would be willing to finance his global network of transcendental meditation classes for the low low price of $7 billion. That's the same cost as 21 billion cans of Cheerwine*.
*Price per unit as bought in 12-pack.

The Yuan, Does It Float?
BBC
The Yuan is now pegged to a basket of currencies instead of just the US Dollar. As such, there are now 8.11 Yuans to a Dollar instead of 8.28. So a small change, but a change in the right direction. Some argue that the Yuan should be worth 40% more than it is now, but such a dramatic change acting suddenly would be devastating.

No More Happy Cows
BBC
Liechtenstein has banned feeding cows hemp, which has been in practice lately because it makes cows calmer. Legislators are afraid that the milk they produce is contaminated with THC. Farmers claim that calm cows produce better milk, but maybe it's the THC.

200,000 miles
My car finally made it 200,000 miles. I'm so glad I was still here to witness the momentous occasion.
