Hello, Ducks!
Starzina
Starfish-Browne here with your Eric’s! Daily! Horoscope! for ThurstonHowellTheThirdsDay, April 25, 2013. Only eight more shopping months till
Christmas. Happy Birthday to Our
Manhattanese Sistah, Asphyxia-8, who turns twenty-four today in Manhattanesia. Also, Happy Anzac Day to all of Our Gentle
Readers Down Undah in Australia and New Zealand. Anzac Day is, of course, nowhere
near as much fun as Administrative Profanity Day, but fuck it.
Alternatively,
butt fuck it. Now THERE’S some
administrative profanity.
So
for the third evening in a row, We walked Our extra large ass all the way to
Center City. Monday, you will recall, We
walked all the way to Drexel. Tuesday,
We walked all the way to dinner. (How it
is that Our ass is still so fat that it eclipses the sun is beyond Us.
(Micro$oft Weird™ is suggesting that We change “Our ass is so fat” to “Our ass
is so fast”. Clearly, Micro$oft Weird™ has not seen Our
ass move recently. (We feel the earth.
Move. Under Our ass. We feel the sky, tumbling down, tumbling down. (Kiss Us quick, We’re Carole Simon Carly
King.))))
Sorry…We’ve
digressed.
At
any rate, last night we walked Ourself all the way to Center City yet again to
earn stars on Our crown in Heaven by seeing one of Our young colleagues’
cabaret. We were anticipating, of
course, That Cabaret That We’ve All Seen
And Loathed, in which earnest young theatre students screech at the outer
limits of the human vocal spectrum before finally busting out some Sondheim
song cut from the third act of an unproduced musical in a key that only dogs
can hear. This cabaret generally
features Some Soprano With An Unfortunate Glandular Condition who sings Glitter and Be Gay, That Song From Cats, and
I’m Anne Hathaway, Give Me My Oscar™ Now
from No Less Miserable. She is aided and abetted by The Gay Boy
Who Made All The Costumes, A Comic Alto Whose Solos Are All Alternately Sharp
Or Flat But Who Can Sing Any Harmony, and Some Hot Guy Who Can’t Really Sing
But Is There Because Everyone Wants In His Pants.
This
was NOT That Cabaret.
Our
first clue that We would not be suffering was when We learned that the director
was someone We have known for years, who has directed Us Our Own Self
Personally, and who certainly would never permit any of the aforementioned
crimes against taste and decency. You
cannot imagine what a wonderful time We had, how many (many, many) times We
laughed out loud, and how We wish We could figger out how to get this show seen
by a whole lot more people in a much better venue.
At
any rate, We are SitOnMyFaceBook-stalking the responsible parties, and will
keep an eye peeled (eeeeuuuuwwww!!!) for their future endeavors.
On
a related note, speaking of Anne Hathaway and No Less Miserable, please go here for Our review of same:
Speaking
of “on Tuesday there was a naked guy from Minnesota where Mary Tyler Moore
threw up her hat, on Wednesday there was a G-stringed stripper from Jersey,
meanwhile, did We mention the guitar player?”, as you can see above, We have
released Our new Starzina’s Time of the
Month Horoscope: Taurus video, and We could not wait to Cher. Here is the link with which you
will share it with your friends, enemies, frenemies, enemists, and frenulums:
Also, for those of you who like cups of tea, and history,
and someone in a tree, here is last year’s Taurus video for comparison:
And now (changing, for some artifactual
reason, to birthday-cake-icing-baby-blue), here are the HorrorScopes:
In
other news, it is Ella Fitzgerald’s birthday.
Insert your favorite scat joke here.
Just pay attention to what people are saying
today (Sorry…did you say something?)
(Heh.
See what We did there?)
(Oh, please.
Helen Keller saw what We did there.
She signed it to Ray Charles, and he sang a song about it to Marlee Matlin.)
(Our political correctnesses…let Us show them
to you.)
— don’t try to read too much into their plain
words. (We are endeavoring now to imagine what UNplain words are. Phantasmagoria… onomatopoeia…Madagascar…)
It’s a good day for compromise, (No it isn’t.)
even if nobody seems willing to make the
first step. (It’s just a jump to the
left…)
The universe is amplifying your charm level
right now (Always after Our fucking charms…they’re spastically meretricious.)
(Is that goddamn leprechaun in here
AGAIN? Ella Fitzgerald is gonna be
PISSED. (POOPED?))
(We told you to insert a scat joke. YouPeople never listen.)
— and many people are intrigued by what you
have to offer! (There is no doubt a line
forming around the block.)
This doesn’t necessarily apply to your
romantic life, (Well, of course not. We
might ENJOY that.)
it might mean that you’re getting more
positive attention at work or at school. (Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz…)
Enjoy what you’ve got going on in your life
right now. (And what exactly would that be?)
If you’re
with someone, do something low-key and relaxing. (In keeping with Our running theme, this would
be the opposite of Glittering And Being Gay.)
If you’re solo, celebrate how wonderful it is
to have so many options and journeys still ahead of you. (Wow.
Is it just Us, or was that sentence the equivalent of referring to The
Fat Girl by saying, “But she has such a pretty face”?)
In gaseousness,
Starzina Starfish-Browne
(Your Your-O-Scopes:
(Meanwhile, why We didn’t think of this sooner, We’ve got no idea, but
better laid than necking, as they say (and how right they are!). For
real live actual ass(tromlaogical) ho(roscopular) advice, please visit Our good
friend AstroGeek here: http://agskylab.blogspot.com/. Our Own
epistular musings are of use to you only insofar as making you feel better by

Starzina
Starfish-Browne was born in the wagon of a traveling show…well, okay, not
really. She was actually born in Lowake, Texas, the daughter of a beautician
and either a garage mechanic or the town mailman. At sixteen, she escaped her
humble beginnings by running off with Doctor Browne’s Traveling Medicine Show
and, more to the point, Doctor Browne. Following the dissolution of this
unfortunate entanglement (Doctor Browne was a Virgo and Starzina is, of course,
an Aries), which produced a daughter, Starzina entered a contest in Soap Opera
Digest and won a scholarship to Oxford (yes, in ENGLAND), where she earned her
doctorate in the newly-created dual major of Astrology and Human Sexuality.
There is absolutely NO TRUTH to the rumor that Starzina’s second daughter has
Royal blood, despite tabloid photographs allegedly depicting her cavorting on
the Italian Riviera with Princes William and Harry, clad only in Prussian
helmets and armbands of questionable taste. Starzina currently resides with her
daughters in Philadelphia, the City That Loves You (On Your) Back, where she
enjoys Double Coupon Day at the local SuperCruise and “encouraging” the
coxswain of the Penn rowing team.
