| Planet Eris |
It finally happened today. The so called dwarf planet
nicknamed "Xena" is now offically named after the Greek
discordian goddess Eris. Here is the URL of the planet
from wikipedia.org: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/136199_Eris
According to wikipedia, the planet "Eris" is the farthest
planet from the sun (Down, Christianity, down!) AND it
orbits around the sun at 556.7 years! Now I know what you
are thinking: "How come it's not 555 years?" Well, there's a
trick to Eris' so-called planet! if you add the numbers like
so: 5 + 5 + 6 + 7, you get the number 23! And 23 IS Eris'
number! I love this goddess so much. She finally came
public in the most unexpected way. Hail Eris for replacing a
terrible actress with a crazy, new one! One who's so good
at acting, that no one knows whether or not she's faking it.

I wonder if the Discordian campaign to get it named
Eris actually worked, or if this is just coincidence.

We should start a Jake campaign to get the new planet
named Eris, or more like "Discordia" to keep with the Roman
naming scheme.
Here are the most popular names, and it looks like the
SubGenius' beat us to it... Bob is actually listed there, along
with Douglas Adams' Persephone and Rupert... AND the
trickster Loki!
This planet was obviously not invited to the party and has
been hiding out there well into our Space Age waiting to
cause mischief. Also, there are no hot dog buns that far from
the sun. I think the choice is obvious.
Lets just hope she doesn't roll any golden asteroids our way.
