Very Strange Horoscope For Today

This is by Francis Drake and was in this morning's St. Pete Times. Mrs. Jones who reads these things brought it to my attention and it may pertain to some of you so forgive me but I thought there are some of you who may want to take heed.

Libra [Sept. 23 to Oct. 22]--- It's easy to be tempted to be dishonest today when dealing with children, sports, gambling and the entertainment world. Take the high road.

Mrs. Jones is a Libra.

Capricorn [Dec. 22 to Jan19]--- This is a dicey day for gambling and financial speculation. However, your creative vibes are excellent.

Mrs. Jones' son is a Capricorn.

Sagittarious [Nov.22 to Dec.21]--- Be careful about liquids and chemical reactions. This also applies to food poisoning. Don't eat anything questionable. Wash your hands a lot.

I'm a Sagittarius.

The first sentence was sobering enough for me. After taking my morning meds [I'm a bit obsessive-compulsive], I had gotten more than a bit into the bourbon and decided to launch a political campaign laying out my platform in another thread here. Then I read this horoscope. Now I'm impaired, starving, and I'm wearing out soap quicker than Jack Nicholson did in "As Good As It Gets."

I got a big game to win the RX/Royal NBA Contest Conference Final tonight. I was going to call Mrs. Jones' son for his input. Can't do that now. Its rained umpteen inches around here and the swamp may flood. What a mess of a day!!!!

someone is going to be offered a bad number...

lol - well, seriously, you don't believe in that sort of stuff, do you? Read them again - they are common-sense bromides that can be taken at face value every day of the year (gambling and speculation are by definition 'dicey' - especially craps - and 'don't eat anything questionable'??? lol - I've dated women to whom that last bit of advice would apply)

Of course I don't believe in that stuff Jazz. Just trying to have some fun. Thought they were a bit funny though given my circumstances today. Even ordered a pizza just now.

Good to hear, Mr. Jones - you never know what people will believe and you never struck me as the sort to believe that the alignment of planets could affect people throughout each day of their lives based on when they were born. I am constantly amazed, though, at finding out that people I meet or women I've dated actually believe this nonsense - nothing about astrology whatsoever makes any sense, yet it's published in newspapers daily as 'entertainment'. Shit, get rid of this bullshit and put in some nudes
