Uranus stolen!
"Model solar system vandalized within week"

NEW MILFORD -- Someone has stolen the model planet of Uranus from Sarah Noble Intermediate School just five days after the unveiling celebration of the model solar system at the McCarthy Observatory.

Model planets from the scaled-model solar system that was donated to the town by the observatory were distributed throughout the town Sunday. The one depicting Uranus was installed at Sarah Noble Intermediate School on a 5-foot-high stainless steel pyramid.

Thursday morning, students arrived to find the planet missing from atop the pedestal.

5. I didn't realize anyone had made a model of my anus
Could give a whole new spin to the great, famous, and wonderful holiday special by Terrance and Philip, "Not Without My Anus".

6. Blatant censorship.
Some parent didn't want their kid to be exposed to "Thats Uranus up there" or "Who put Uranus on that pyramid".
But it will backfire and they will get...
"Looks like the school lost Uranus" or "I know I saw Uranus here yesterday".
