I like FWA too - great writing. But at least he has his own website to turn to.

The only good thing to come from Astrology was Astronomy. Much like the only good thing to come from Alchemy was Chemistry.

I agree with KC. Jules is a great guy and seems to know his stuff (not being into astrology I can't say much more). Give him a chance. Astrology = Nonsense anyway As if you weren't chock full of your own nonsense

The decision was to go with a local astrologer instead of a syndicated column.

How about "Mystical Pizza?"

Not at all. Zach Cooper, our publisher, made the decision because he always prefers local writers over syndicated ones whenever possible.

Boy, this guy missed mine by a mile yesterday
From AOL Horoscopes. Wednesday, Aug 26th, 2009 -- A one-on-one relationship can be the main source of stress in your life now as the battle lines are drawn and it becomes increasingly difficult to be civil. You want to work out your differences through rational and concise communication, yet you keep slipping back into the drama of it all. Instead of expressing everything you feel today, be judicious about what you say. A bit of discretion can soothe ruffled feathers and ease the frazzled energy back to normal.

If you're into astrology, you'd have to expect that anything printed is aimed toward 1/12 of the populace. Jules (whatever his nom de plume may be) does individual readings too.

"Aquarius There's travel in your future when your tongue freezes to the back of a speeding bus Fill that void in your pathetic life by playing Whack-A-Mole seventeen hours a day
Pisces Try to avoid any Virgos or Leos with the Ebola virus You are the true Lord of the Dance, no matter what those idiots at work say
Aries The look on your face will be priceless when you find that forty pound watermelon in your colon Trade toothbrushes with an albino dwarf, then give a hickey to Meryl Streep
Taurus You will never find true happiness - what you gonna do, cry about it? The stars predict tomorrow you'll wake up, do a bunch of stuff, and then go back to sleep
That's your horoscope for today (that's your horoscope for today) That's your horoscope for today That's your horoscope for today (that's your horoscope for today) That's your horoscope for today
Gemini Your birthday party will be ruined once again by your explosive flatulence Your love life will run into trouble when your fiance hurls a javelin through your chest
Cancer The position of Jupiter says you should spend the rest of the week face down in the mud Try not to shove a roll of duct tape up your nose while taking your driver's test
Leo Now is not a good time to photocopy your butt and staple it to your boss's face, oh no Eat a bucket of tuna-flavored pudding, then wash it down with a gallon of strawberry Quik
Virgo All Virgos are extremely friendly and intelligent - except for you Expect a big surprise today when you wind up with your head impaled upon a stick
That's your horoscope for today (that's your horoscope for today) That's your horoscope for today That's your horoscope for today (that's your horoscope for today) That's 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 the is absolutely true.
Where was I?
Libra A big promotion is just around the corner for someone much more talented that you Laughter is the very best medicine, remember that when your appendix bursts next week
Scorpio Get ready for an unexpected trip when you fall screaming from an open window Work a little harder on improving your low self-esteem, you stupid freak
Sagittarius All your friends are laughing behind your back (kill them) Take down all those naked pictures of Ernest Borgnine you've got hanging in your den
Capricorn The stars say that you're an exciting and wonderful person, but you know they're lying If I were you, I'd lock my doors and windows and never never never never never leave my house again
That's your horoscope for today (that's your horoscope for today) That's your horoscope for today That's your horoscope for today (that's your horoscope for today) That's your horoscope for today
That's your horoscope for today (that's your horoscope for today) That's your horoscope for today That's your horoscope for today (yay yay yay yay yay) That's your horoscope for today"
