The Sun has been legally
registered as the property of a
Spanish woman, who wants to
charge everyone for ‘using’ the
star.

‘There is an international agreement
which states that no country may claim
ownership of a planet or star but it says
nothing about individuals,’ Angeles
Duran said. ‘I am not stupid, I know the
law. I did it but anyone else could have
done it, it simply occurred to me first.’
The 49-year-old said she claimed
ownership after reading about an
American man who registered himself
as the owner of the Moon and most
planets in our solar system.

She has been issued with a title deed
from lawyers in the region of Galicia
that states she is ‘owner of the sun, a
star of spectral type G2, located in the
centre of the solar system, at an
average distance from Earth of about
149million km’.

Ms Duran, of Salvaterra de Miño, plans
to charge all users and give half the
proceeds to the Spanish government,
20 per cent to the nation’s pension
fund, ten per cent to research and ten
per cent to fighting world hunger.
And the last ten per cent? That’s going
straight to her bank account, she says.

Ok, that's a welcome development. Thank God I have registered my ownership of the 'Air'. I am only just lenient I haven't started collecting my rentals from all living things.

Hey Madam, calculate $100M per seconds of every air you breath since I registered my ownership in 2000 till now and pls credit my company's account within 24hours or else ill withdraw my services and that's hell fire for you or you relocate back to your sun!

This world sha....

See the "owner" of the Sun

Hot property: Angeles Duran, 52, with her notary office document that proves she is the legal owner of the sun.

Can you sue her if you get sunburnt? Or skin cancer. Don't forget Global Warming

Time to form the biggest class-action lawsuit of all time...it'll be bigger than the one against big tobacco... Add in to it too all the deaths from heat waves over the years caused by the sun...

Creativity in Action...
Come to think of it, If we really had to pay for sunlight, some people would be in permanent darkness.

And I'll buy as much shares of the sun

Thank God for sunlight
