{Garfield is watching TV}
Person 1: I've established communication with outer space!
Person 2: Where in outer space?
Person 1: Mars
Person 2: Big deal!
Garfield: That's only sort of outer space

From Wikipedia:

Around 1900, the Guzman Prize was created; the first person to establish interplanetary communication would be awarded 100,000 francs, under one stipulation: Mars was excluded because Madame Guzman thought communicating with Mars would be too easy to deserve a prize.
