Catch it before they retract it:

"American scientists were today expected to announce that they had
found a new 'planet' in our solar system.

"A 10th heavenly body has been spotted orbiting the Earth.

"After sightings by the Hubble Telescope and the Spitzer Space
Telescope, NASA was expected to unveil its latest find."

If NASA announce that Sol X is orbiting *Earth*, I'll be impressed. (In my
book, that would make it Sol IIIb, according to the astronomy I learned.)

I knew it. I noticed the sun seemed to be up a lot longer lately. Somewhere
deep inside I knew it was the beginning of the end, but now we have
evidence. Now what was Nancy's Paypal account number? I need to send her all

As far as I'm concerned I have a feeling I've seen Sol IIIb :-)
