Meet the Planets
#20
Technically, I think Pluto-Charon should be classified as a "double planet", since they co-orbit each other around a common barycenter - a point in space where their gravities cancel each other out which they both orbit.

Maybe they should be classified as a "double dwarf planet", but that just sounds weird...

Diogenes was eating bread and lentils for supper. He was seen by the philosopher Aristippus, who lived comfortably by flattering the king.

Said Aristippus, ‘If you would learn to be subservient to the king you would not have to live on lentils.’ Said Diogenes, ‘Learn to live on lentils and you will not have to be subservient to the king.’
