INSIDE THIS
ISSUE:
Horoscopes
Aries – (March 21 – April
19): Your last words won’t
be famous, but they will
smell of zelka salata.
Taurus – (April 20 – May
20): Due to poor financial
planning, you’ll take to
shoplifting, only to quit
shortly after because of
your disgust at the lack of
selection.
Gemini – (May 21 – June
21): Although you’ll be
compared to a summer’s
day, it’s a summer’s day
on a crowded bus with a
“mystery smoker”.
Cancer – (June 22 – July
22): You’ll begin to think
that you’ve never worked
so hard in your life, or
kidded yourself so thoroughly.
Leo – (July 23 – Aug 22):
This month you will hear
the phrase “Macedonia is
full of beautiful women
and men” 782 times.
Virgo – (August 23 – September 22): Your daily
diary attracts the eye of
Hollywood as they line up
at your door, begging you
to stop writing it.
Libra – (September 23 –
October 23): You’ll learn
more about Tito than you
have of all the U.S. presidents combined!
Scorpio – (October 24 –
November 21): After using
the first Macedonian
drive-thru, you are less
than surprised to find a
rusted, abandoned Zastava
at the pick-up window.
Sagittarius – (November
22 – December 21): People
will begin to take notice of
you; you’ll really stand out
– thus becoming a household name, and the hot
topic of conversation for
the next two years!
Capricorn – (December 22
– January 19): You will
take in a lonesome scraggly creature that follows
you home, gratefully accepting meager table
scraps. Only upon bathing
it do you recognize the
fellow PCV.
Aquarius – (January 20 –
February 18): The Pink
station will play a music
video of you dancing at a
Macedonian wedding,
which will sadden you
more than the fact that
you’re watching the Pink
station.
Pisces – (February 19 –
March 20): Though wearing your bicycle helmet at
the time, you’ll still be
kicked out of PC for riding
through a crowded
women’s locker room.
