The Castlegar Sun

Wednesday, March 31,

1993

current compilation of
the most peculiar
people do, edited by Chuck
Shepherd.
Proof that true stories are
weirder than made-up
stories.

The Pryor, Okla., Daily Times
reported recently that autopsies on a
minnow and a flea, which the city
used to test the quality of discharge
from its waste-treatment plant,
might cost the city form $100,000
to $200,000. Tests are required by
the state and federal governments to
ascertain whether the minnow and
the flea died from natural causes or
from a problem with the discharge.

THE ENTREPRENEURIAL
SPIRIT

-- In January, New York News-
day reported that a "thriving" gun
rental business was operating in a
Brooklyn housing project. Accord-
ing to police, the market price was
$20 a night for a 9mm gun, but rose
to $100 if the gun was used to shoot
someone.

- The Toronto Globe and Mail
reported in January that a California
company will soon introduce a
hand-held device that will enable
the user to pinpoint his location
anywhere on*earth, by use of satel-
lites, within 10 yards.

-- Danville, Va., inventor David
Bivens, who has developed large,
irrigated brushes for washing cars
and trucks (such as those found in
commercial car washes), told the
(Chicago Tribune in November that
he had developed such a device for
washing people. A person stands
next to the brush and rubs against it
as it makes 90 to 120 revolutions
per minute, flicking off dirt (and
dead skin).

-- The official China Daily news-
paper reported in December that
consumers were buying “millions”
of Western-style Christmas car
even though many Chinese do not
understand what the holiday mes-
Sages mean. "Merry Christmas,
Happy New Year and Season's

"wrote the paper,
“are becoming household words in
China.”

-- In November, Houston judge
Jim Barkley, 51, quietly closed his
part-time business. For several
weeks, according to courthouse
employees, Barkley had been oper-
ating a golf wear haberdashery in
his office, with monogramming ser-
vices offered by his wife. Barkley
denied a conflict of interest, saying,
“The attorneys can buy the stuff,
but there's no obligation.”

CELEBRITIES

-- In December, a court in Gal-
latin, Tenn., ordered Thomas James
Fry of Jensen Beach, Fla., to stop
harassing singer Conway Twitty.
Fry, 24, says Twitty, 58, is his son.

-- Model Cindy Crawford told a
feminist conference at Princeton
University in January that she is not
obsessed with her appearance: "I
don't ever wake up looking like
Cindy Crawford. Believe me, I
don't want to look at my naked
body in a three-way mirror any
more than you do.”

Jn January, opera singer
Luciano Pavarotti was accused by
the author of a 1972 art book of
copying her drawings and offering
them for sale under his name. One
painting, which Pavarotti told an
interviewer was so touching to him
that he cried when he painted it,
was allegedly so faithfully copied
that it included the original artist's
errors in scenic detail

HOROSCOPES

March 28 - April 3

ARIES — March 21/April 20
Friends may say that you're weird,
but to you, this is probably not an
insult, You of all people know that
you're not actually weird, you just
have a different approach to life,
that’s all. Most of your friends appre
ciate you for that very reason. It's a
good time to start saving money
TAURUS - April 21/May 21
You are probably on the verge of
being burned out from working so
hard. You need to learn how to dele
gate responsibilities. Your hands are
not the only capable pair in the
world. Your loved ones are con
cemed about your welfare; let them
know everything is all right.
GEMINI - May 22/June 21
This will be a very strange week
Every time something bad happens
something twice as good will happen
soon after. The expression “you have
to take the bad with the good” applies
here. But don't worry, the bad won't
be anything you can't handle
CANCER - June 22/July 22
Your moody behavior is driving
everyonearound you nuts! This is
especially true in the caSe of your
partner. Send him or her flowers and
promise to behave! Something great
will happen to you Thursday. If
you're saving up for something spe
Cial, How would be a good time to
evaluate your financial situation
LEO — July 23/August 23
Don't take your close friends for
granted. You could be at the verge of
losing a valuable friendship it you
don't show that you appreciate his or
her efforts. Your financial situation is
starting to look better; just continue
to keep spending to a minimum. You
will win a small battle at work; now
it’s time to concentrate on the war
VIRGO - Aug 24/Sept 22

A situation that seemed new and
exciting to you a few months back is
now sort of dull and boring. With
some initiative and imagination, you
could make the situation fun again. A
Libra friend will advise you on pos
sible options. A family pet is craving
your attention

LIBRA = Sept 23/Oct 23

This will be an excellent week for
you. You will feel cheerful and gen
erally at peace with yourself. A great
opportunity will come your way at
work; jump on it as soon as possible
Romance will be the highlight of the
weekend, as you and your partner
tighten your bond

SCORPIO -— Oct 24/Noy 22
You will feel pulled in a thousand dif-
ferent directions. Basically, that's
because you're needed to do too
many things. Try to miake yourself-a
little less indispensable at work. It
won't hurt your career any, and you
will have greater peace of mind. Your
financial situation looks very good.
SAGITTARIUS — Nov 2¥Dec 21
Don't make promises you can't kee
A friend will resent you if you cancel
plans at the last minute. You need to
practice Saying “no.” It's really not that
hard, and you will gain more respect
that way. You will do something v
off-beat this weekend. Let your family
know you care about them.
CAPRICORN - Dec 22/Jan 20
You're your own worst critte. A
recent failure is not as severe as you
make it out to be. You must take a
look at yourself from an outsider's
point of view. Don’t put off medical
or dental appointments. A visit from
old friends lifts your spirits.
AQUARIUS — Jan 21/Feb 18
Things have been going very well for
you, and guess what? They're going
to get even better! At some social
function, you will meet a very inter.
esting Taurus who can indirecily ben
efit your financial situation. Don't
give out too much information about
your personal life, especially during
mid week.
PISCES — Feb 19/March 20
If you've been feeling down in the
dumps lately, it’s time to perk up. A
streak of luck is following you, and
many good things will happen
Wednesday and Thursday will be
ly good days. Listen to the
advice of a Scorpio associate before
making a financial change. Don’t fall
prey to gossiping Leos.

YOUR BIRTHDAY THIS WEEK
The next 12 months:
This should be a good: year all
around. There will be times when
you're down but, for the most part,
you will be content, You will be espe-
cially lucky in the late part of the
summer. So, if you're planning any
major changes, August would be the
time to do it. You will probabty travel
quite a bit this year. Sometime in the
fall you will be reunited with a past
love. A new relationship could form
but, be careful, it might not be in
your best interests. You and a family
member will become closer because
of a mutual interest. You will be
attending several weddings this year.
