I remember when I first found out that people actually believe in astrology.  I was writing/cartooning for my high school's newspaper when I came up with the bright idea to do a horiscope section.  It was intended to be funny but man oh man did I piss people off who take that stuff seriously.  Mostly girls.  But what shocked me the most was that even a couple of teachers told me that I shouldn't have done that - they were big astrology fans, too.  I don't know what they expected me to do, after all this was the year I came to school dressed in scuba gear and draped in the Soviet flag to protest our new mandatory uniforms.  Anyways, I just got a nice chain email describing all of the zodiac signs so I figured I'd post mine (with commentary in bold).


TAURUS - The Enduring One (April 20 - May 20) Charming (can't argue that) but aggressive (I like to punch pillows). Can come off as boring (usually when I'm on stage), but they are not (wait, how does that work?). Hard workers (I can sleep for 13 hours and still be tired). Warm-hearted. Strong, has endurance (uhhh). Solid beings that are stable and secure in their ways. Not looking for shortcuts (technically true since I try to get out of working alltogether).
Take pride in their beauty (got that right). Patient and reliable. Make great friends and give good advice. Loving and kind (ladies...). Loves hard - passionate (again, ladies...). Express themselves emotionally (sniff). Prone to ferocious temper-tantrums (don't make me angry...). Determined. Indulge themselves often (I'm guessing they're referring to the drugs and alcohol). Very generous (only cause Sal is a freeloader).

Step 2: World Domination

 
I've still got the original pictures somewhere of your scuba exploits. And yours is still the best horoscope I've seen to this date. Though, I think for those weak of mind telling a few of the zodiac signs "you're gonna die" might throw them off a wee bit.
But hey, if Chris Rock can do it why couldn't WE!?!?

Eh well, I haven't seen you in forever, dude! Hope things are good with you nowadays.

Girls really are into horoscopes more than boys...I think it's because it offers a false sense of hope and some sense of clarity. And since girls are prone to over analyze things it seems to answer questions we didn't even know we had, thus making us feel we can face the world with a keener eye.


Never works out though...
