The government wants to probe Uranus? Can't be good.

Geez. Anyone who has had a prostate exam knows about this.

This should really confuse most of those drug-sniffing dogs.

Here in Geezer Acres the bet is those scientists will discover a black hole that also needs probing. If something goes amiss, they'll blame it on the Dog Star.

It sounds like Mike Pence finally has his legacy.

Absolutely NOT until the U.S. Science Advisors and I get better acquainted.

If they'd wanted to look at a big ball of gas surrounded by a ring, they could have just gone to Washington.

Well, where ever IT is, I hope they find what they're looking for, and I might add it's probably also the LAST place I'd look for whatever IT is.

Most of you are familiar with Uranus, Missouri, the source of 90% of the world's puns, not to mention fudge. Well I recently noticed that there is a new Uranus in Indiana. Which means that the business is expanding. Which means that, wait for it, Uranus is getting bigger.
