Excerpt:
The Vice Presidency may not be worth a bucket of warm piss, but you might just get your own dwarf planet out of it.
A “dwarf planet beyond Pluto” was discovered by astronomers Wednesday in a corner of space where no planet, dwarf or otherwise, should have been. Provisionally named 2012 VP113, the little guy rapidly acquired the nickname Biden, though it will probably be graced with a more official appellation further down the road.
The dwarf planet may have cosmic consequences: astronomers suspect it signals the existence of a much larger planet in the netherreaches of the galaxy, which would significantly realign our understanding of the solar system.
