HORRORSCOPES

(Reprinted here without permission from  http://mammothsheet.com/)

 

 

By Clouds McCloud

 

Aquarius: In case your pooch has too

much of a paunch, there’s a new diet pill

on the market for dogs called Slentrol. It’s

said to attack “Lab Flab,” but still works

for dumpy Dalmatians or chubby Chihuahuas .

The lesson here is that there’s

always an easier way to do everything,

especially if you’re fat and lazy and have

access to a credit card.

 

Pisces: Scientists have determined that

for dolphins to be happy and healthy they

need to have forms of sexual expression.

So it looks like our intelligent aquatic

friends had even more in common with

us than we thought. To help you get in

touch with your inner Flipper, try this line

out for starters, “You be the boss, applesauce,

and I’ll be the pork chop.”

 

Aries: It’s awfully tough in the midst of

winter’s harshest, darkest days to stay in

touch with our bodies because they’re

usually buried under bulky sweaters and

stuffy underpants. Therefore your assignment

is to remember that just about the

happiest any of us ever really gets is when

we’ve got nothing on but the radio, and

we’ve got an extra pair hands on hand to

help fiddle with the knobs.

 

Taurus: A pregnant Chicago Bears fan is

offering to trade her protruding belly as

a billboard in exchange for two tickets

to the Super Bowl. This, of course, takes

childhood acting to a whole new level.

If you ever find yourself selling some of

your body parts for advertising please

be advised that your life may have taken

a turn in the wrong direction. But don’t

worry, life does allow u-turns—so long as

you use a hand signal and holler out “Woo

Hoo!”

 

Gemini: The moon enters Gemini this

weekend and as you’re no doubt aware,

weekends were made for Michelob. Therefore

Mondays must have been made for

Mad Dog 20/20 and Wednesdays (Hump

Days) must have been made for Jack Daniels.

Now that this has been cleared up,

the Stars say this would be a good time to

go on the wagon.

 

Cancer: If you look at it this way—your

life is the gift you always dreamt it could

be and everything in the universe is working

to help you—then you’re all set. If you

look at it this way—life is a cruel joke and

then you die, usually lonely, broke and

smelling like cheese—then it’s either time

to stop doing drugs, or maybe to start doing

some of the fun kinds—like fresh oxygen.

 

Leo: The Stars would like you to know

that all that rumbling you’ve been feeling

recently is being caused by big cathartic

barrels of pleasure and change rolling your

way because, as they say, your life is about

to be on like Donkey Kong. All you’ve got

to do now is give permission to yourself

to be yourself, to be happy, cranky, stinky,

horny and occasionally willing to hop

around like a big goofy gorilla.

 

Virgo: Your words of wisdom for the week

come from fellow Virgo, Van “the Man”

Morrison, “And if you live the life you

love, you’ll get the blessing from above.”

Your words of anti-advice will come from

Clouds, “And if you don’t love who you

are, the rest of us will never be willing to

pay to love you.”

 

Libra: The Inuit Eskimo word for sex actually

translates as “Laughing together in

bed.” This definition usually suits Libras

well, for they are happiest and most likely

to be able to laugh when they are in a long

committed relationship. And as anyone

who’s ever been a in a long committed

relationship knows well, regular sessions

of laughter and lovemaking are your only

real chances for success.

 

Scorpio: Studies now show that more

than 9 out of 10 American households are

technically considered to be dysfunctional.

So there’s nothing really unique about

your laments about your family. The only

thing that’s really going to help is to remember

that you don’t always have to

like the various odd parts of your family,

all you have to do is love‘em.

 

Sagittarius: Scholars have long debated

about what came first, the chicken or

the egg. Clouds, like most of you, really

couldn’t give a fart, so long as the chicken

is served with mashed potatoes and egg

with a juicy side of bacon. The best foods

for Sags are green peppers, tomatoes,

prunes, potatoes, whole wheat and eggs,

also known as “breakfast.”

 

Capricorn: Your advice for the week will

come from the nation’s favorite expert on

just about everything, that bald-headed

beauty, Dr. Phil. “You’ve got to be able to

get excited about who you are!” (Clouds

Warning: Just don’t go getting so excited

about yourself that you never leave the

house.)
