The Castlegar Sun Wednesday, July 22, 1992 current compilation of the most peculiar people do, edited by Chuck Shepherd. Proof that true stories are weirder than made-up stories. — For the second time in two months, a Houston-area woman who was dressed as a man was charged with a sexual offense against a teen-age girl. Shana Fuller, 21, was given five years* probation in Angelton, Texas, in March, for an offense involving a 16-year-old girl, whom she dated for a year. Said the mother of the girl, “She [Fuller] is an attractive girl, but she also was an attrac- tive guy.” LaJeane Sue Thomp- son, 19, was charged with sexual assault in Conroe, Texas, in Jan- uary against a 14-year-old girl. Both Fuller and Thompson dressed as men, and had ban- daged down their breasts in order to seduce the girls. WRONG PLACE, WRONG TIME — In Fulton County Jail in Atlanta in November, inmates were watching one of their favorite shows,. “America’s Most Wanted,” when a photo came on the screen of a man wanted for murder and arson. Several heads turned around to Jessie Lee Baker, 27, and one inmate said, “Hey, that's you!” Inmates noti- fied authorities, who called the show's producers to report Baker's whereabouts and put the inmates’ names in for the reward. — In August 1990, police offi- cer Loronzo Jones arrested Thomas Heath Evans in Detroit on armed robbery charges after exchanging gunshots with him. Later, Jones was laid off the police force, and Evans, released pending trial, allegedly hot up a crack house and jumped bail. A year later, Officer Jones, visiting friends in Tallahassee, Fla, 800 miles from Detroit, wandered into a nightclub, where he encountered Evans and alerted local police. Said Evans’ attor- sney, “The boy ain't got no luck. Derick W. Williams, 40, of Lauderhill, Fla., was arrested after quarreling with a girlfriend sin the parking lot of a police sta- ‘tion in Penny Hill, Del. in Febru- ary. When police asked Williams for identification, he reached into the front seat of his car, on which ‘Police noticed a small box con- taining seven ounces of cocaine worth about $11,000. ‘THINGS YOU THOUGHT ‘DIDN’T HAPPEN — Ruben Caro, 32, was arrest- ed in October for attempted shoplifting at the Tropical Show- case pet store in Hicksville, N.Y. After the manager noticed that chirping sounds seemed to be ‘emanating from Caro’s trousers, {Caro reached down and pulled sout a lovebird, which then bit his ‘finger. Caro fled the store but twas run down by the store owner, iwhereupon Caro pulled a second ‘lovebird from his trousers. — In March, Riverside, Calif., Police Capt. Richard Dana rescinded his department's policy that officers not answer police alarms from homes that had not paid the city’s $25 alarm license fee. Dana was responding to crit- acism: A 35-year-old woman who shad not paid her fee had been ‘beaten and raped by an intruder tas the police ignored her alarm At the Houston Stock Show in March, the grand champion Pig brought $70,000; the prize ssteer, $200,000; and three broiler chickens sold for $25,000 each. eee HOROSCOPES July ARIES - March 21/April 20 This could be a rather emotional time. Some difficult problems need settling, and people will probably look to you for help. You should do your best to keep calm, and always do what you think is right. After all, your judgement is good and. even if you do meet with some opposition, you must be prepared to stick to what you believe in. TAURUS — April 21/May 21 There are busy times ahead for you, and they could bring you some good fortune, There is interesting news from an old friend, perhaps involving some change in plans. You'll spend a lot of time at home in the next few days, and any special effort you put in will be handsomely rewarded. An tation is on its way. MINI — May 22/June 21 You are going to be feeling very active and full of energy this: week; make sure you take full advantage of it. Daily routine will just fly by and you're going to be heavily involved in social activity. A new friendship could lead to a bit of extra excitement. CANCER -— June 22/July 22 There are a lot of changes on the way and they will keep you very busy It could prove a bit upsetting if you don’t brace yourself to take it all in your stride. Try not to prejudge situa- tions before you have heard all the facts. Social life is much more relax ing — and friends will go out of their way to show you a good time LEO — July 23/August 23 Keep your eyes open this week there's a special opportunity com ing up that you can't afford to miss Don't be frightened to take chances where money is concerned — so long as you think the risk is worth it, and the amount involved isn't too great. A Scorpio of the opposite sex wants to get to know you better. VIRGO - Aug 24/Sept 22 Things start looking up for you this week. This doesn’t mean you should shirk responsibility, but you will get recognition for your efforts A good deed you did for somebody will be repaid in an unusual way Finances are about to improve for you, too. Midweek will be a busy time socially LIBRA - Sept 23/Oct 23 People are going to rely on you a lot this week, which could lead to one or two difficulties. But if you follow your instincts, everything should work out for the best. You come up 19-25 against some personal criticism this week. Don’t overreact; you'll find this brings some valuable advice with it. There's a pleasant surprise in store for you on Priday! SCORPIO — Oct 24/Nov 22 You are going to find yourself com- ing under a lot of pressure this week, especially at work. Try to ignore petty criticism; it really looks like you are on the right track. If you feel things getting you down too much, just keep to yourself a bit more, and concentrate on what you are doing. Romance is definitely in the air towards the end of the week! SAGITTARIUS — Nov 2¥Dec 21 Things probably have been rather busy for you lately, and this week is much the same. A close friend is working on something that will involve you very directly; this could mean even less time for yourself, But the effort’s going to prove worthwhile.

Somebody is likely to come to you for advice; you could prove to be a positive influence. AQUARIUS - Jan 21/Feb 18 It looks like you and your partner could be heading for an argument. It can be avoided if you learn to curb your temper. If a confrontation does seem inevitable, then be prepared to listen to the other person's point of view. Things will be more harmo- nious on the work front. PISCES - Feb 19/March 20 There's going to be a lot going on this week, but don’t ignore routine matters, even if they do seem a bit tedious. You may feel you've been left out of things recently. If that's so, you'll be very happy to be back in the center of it all again this week. Keep private matters private YOUR BIRTHDAY THIS WEEK The next 12 months: Many long-term problems will final- ly be resolved. You may also reach a milestone (possibly marriage!). You will be very busy, and at times will feel like you're being pulled in many different directions. If you don't let stress get the best of you, this can be a very happy year.
