Your HORROR – scope for the week of Sept. 30th, 2012


Aries… The sun is in trine with Mars. You will awaken to find yourself trapped in the Lunar Module with Dennis Miller.

Taurus… Neptune will soon be on its cusp with Mercury. A busty beautician wearing boxing gloves will buy you bottled beer.

Gemini… Saturn is rising now, and it’s grumpy from lack of sleep. You will inherit the wind, but it will be tied up in probate for some time.

Cancer… The moon is square with Venus now. You will do the conga in the Congo with Condoleezza.

Leo… Pluto is in the dog house at the moment. You will dine with a delightful diva in Dover Delaware.

Virgo… Earth is in its ninth house. You will be pestered by a pesky physical therapist in pajamas.

Libra… Uranus is approaching a cusp with the sun. Put a feather in your hat. You will have the urge to preen yourself this week.

Scorpio… Jupiter is in opposition to the Moon. Let it be known that you may need to get a permit for your comfort zone.

Sagittarius… Saturn is setting with the sun. Soon you may have to choose between a humidor, a cuspidor, and door number four.

Capricorn… Neptune is square with the cusp of the moon. You may do the fandango with a feather duster in France in the near future.

Aquarius… Neptune is trine with the Earth’s ozone layer. You will sleep much better when you get rid of your pine cone mattress.

Pisces… Pluto is in court now petitioning to be an official planet again. You will bathe with a barbarian barber in Barbados.

And remember what Weird Al says about astrology in his song, “Your Horoscope For Today”:

“Now you may find it inconceivable or at the very least a bit unlikely that the relative position of the planets and the stars could have a special deep significance or meaning that exclusively applies to only you, but let me give you my assurance that these forecasts and predictions are all based on solid, scientific, documented evidence, so you would have to be some kind of moron not to realize that every single one of them is absolutely true.”

Cellular Creates Congo Calls


RassomStar is an African telecommunications company.

They are looking to bring cellular phoning to the Congo.

They are using tiny access nodes to make calls in the rain forest.

I hope Tarzan, Jane, Cheetah, Jungle Boy, and George of the Jungle all have cell phones.

Hmmm…

The Congo has now going mobile.

A gesture that’s really quite noble.

Call up a chimp,

Or a lion with a limp,

Africa’s is finally going global.

Brief Browsing Brews Blues


In a recent study (probably for a Masters or PhD) it was determined that surfing the web randomly can lead one to suffer from depression.

It revealed that depressed surfers changed between sites more frequently than others who stayed on a site longer.

I know for a fact that certain sites depress me more than others.

But, I don’t think that necessarily leads to depression.

However, not having chocolates while surfing can really become depressing.

Hmmm…

Random surfing can make an impression,

That one is suffering depression.

They surf without aim,

Not like playing a game.

And they do it session after session.

Your HORROR – scope for the week of Sept. 23rd, 2012


Aries… The sun is in trine with the moon. You will awaken to find that all your hand puppets have abandoned you.

Taurus…Uranus is having a urination problem. Your idea for a theme park based on graffiti will have failure written all over it.

Gemini… Mars is in opposition to Pluto over some Disney tickets. You will have a sudden uncontrollable interest in Lord of the Rings, Lord of the Dance, Lord of the Flies, and a biography of Jack Lord.

Cancer… Neptune is on the cusp of a cuspidor. You will win second place in the Dennis Miller look-alike contest. The winner will be a sasquatch.

Leo… Venus is having an anxiety attack now. You will mock madness in the moonlight at midnight in Maine in May.

Virgo… Earth is on the cusp of a cusp with Mars. You will awaken to find that you are still asleep.

Libra… The moon is in its second house which just went into foreclosure. You will suddenly find yourself bewitched, bothered, bewildered and a wildebeest.

Scorpio… Pluto is trine with Venus’ back yard. You will awaken to find that you have been turned into a living  doldrum.

Sagittarius… The moon may be losing its gravity over a gambling debt with Jupiter. Your identity will be stolen, but returned when the thief decides he’d rather be someone else.

Capricorn…Mercury is mad over mingling moonbeams. You will fall in love with a Quarterback, a Quarter Pounder, and a half chicken this week.

Aquarius… Neptune and Jupiter are trine and that’s fine. Take a sedative now. That song you hate will resonate in your mind all week.

Pisces…The sun is in its eleventh house which has a leaky roof and termites. You will awaken to find that you are a copy of yourself.

And remember what Weird Al says about astrology in his song, “Your Horoscope For Today”:

“Now you may find it inconceivable or at the very least a bit unlikely that the relative position of the planets and the stars could have a special deep significance or meaning that exclusively applies to only you, but let me give you my assurance that these forecasts and predictions are all based on solid, scientific, documented evidence, so you would have to be some kind of moron not to realize that every single one of them is absolutely true.”

Google’s G-mail Goes Goofy


Recently Google had an outage which lasted for an hour.

It affected around ten percent of Google users.

That left about thirty million subscribers without email service.

I remember that day.

I heard screaming from all corners of the planet/globe/Earth.

I don’t know why people use that expression, “All corners of the globe” etc.

Maybe it derives from the Flat Earth Society.

I don’t use G-mail, so it didn’t affect me.

Plus, I am secure in my belief that the Earth is indeed mostly round.

Hmmm…

Gmail was apparently out,

It made customers suddenly shout.

Thirty million were affected,

Before it was detected.

They were certainly angered no doubt.

Hacking Hi-jinks Highlighted


At a recent security conference, they introduced computer hackers as young as eight years old.

The event even featured security exercises as a challenge for them.

Whatever happened to kids watching cartoons, playing games outdoors, or reading a book?

Oh yeah. They are all sitting around the house alone texting each other.

Hmmm…

Hackers as young as eight?

They hack and they think it’s great.

They break into computers,

Instead of riding scooters.

It’s something we all would berate.

A Great Big Thank You!


Once again, I want to thank all of you who are following my blog.

I can’t begin to tell you how much I appreciate it.

It’s folks like you that keep me creating and writing.

There are now over a hundred followers. I never imagined I’d ever get to that number.

I promise I will continue to publish this blog as long as I can, and as long as there is interest in it.

Thanks again.

A little poem for my priceless followers…

You guys are the greatest on Earth,

You follow my weird, wacky mirth.

I furnish the jokes,

For amazing folks.

There’s no way to estimate your worth.

Phone Perplexes Pilot


A while back a cell phone somehow distracted an airline pilot as the plane was about to land.

He then forgot to lower the landing gear.

They had to abort what would have been a belly landing just a few hundred feet above the ground.

I wonder. Was that a call to action?

And they tell us to turn off all cell phones.

Hmmm…

A near crash from a noisy cell phone,

Made the flight crew resound with a groan;

They had to abort,

Right at the airport,

The clown should have left it alone.

Update To Prior Post RE: Great Blogs to Follow


I was reminded of something by John The Aussie,  http//sleepinginsomniacs.wordpress.com.

I didn’t make the web addresses for the two great blogs I recommended yesterday into proper hyperlinks for those followers who read blogs via their phones.

Sorry about that my Mobile Techno-friends.

Traveling With Teddy is at   http://travelingwithteddy.com/

I Love BritishTV is at  http://ilovebritishtv.com

Let’s hope this works.
