Sometimes the Horoscope is Correct

I always preface horoscope and astrological discussions with this: I don't take the stuff too seriously, it's like a hobby or something. I do have a friend that takes it quite seriously, he is a Guru and received his training after high school in India. He went to high school with me. Played in a band. I was a groupie from the 'hood.

Anyhow, I like to read horoscopes and fortune cookies. Always have. I was sorely disappointed that everything in January went exactly the opposite that my horoscopes said it would. It said I would come into money and never have to worry about finances ever again. That didn't happen. Thanks a lot, horoscopes. I spent a lot of money on lottery tickets!!!!
But it was right about February. Almost to the exact DAY. I know this is coincidental but it's amusing to me.

To make things even more interesting, it told me this new guy and I would fit together well because we'd motivate each other to work together on projects, stay on tasks, and finish them.

So here's Gary, finishing a project that I started...fixing his dog door:


Oh and also it said he would be completely committed to the relationship, unlike the others....

Senator Pearce

Saturday was a fundraiser for our local Republican Party. I, along with a couple hundred people, attended and helped beg for donations.

But our keynote speaker was the big draw: Senator Russell Pearce. He was the author of Proposition 200 a few years ago, which is a law voted in by citizens of Arizona requiring people to produce proper I.D. when they are voting in elections.
Oh and he wrote a little thing called SB 1070.

I met him upon his arrival, but didn't get a photo because I'm tired of the same old same old stiff poses that we tend to do. You know, like THIS:


So I opted for the more amusing STALKER look to my photo with Senator Pearce:


He was signing autographs. THAT'S how much people in these parts like the whole SB1070 thing.
