Hello, Ducks!
Starzina Starfish-Browne here with your
Eric’s! Daily! Horoscope! for TurdsDay, October Turd, TrannyTurdTeen.
Happy Birthday to Karen, who turns
twenty-four today in New York. New York,
New York, that is. Karen appeared with
Us in the very first show in which We ever appeared publicly, at the 2008
Fringe Festival. Karen’s brother is very tall. He will be coming to see Our upcoming show on
Sunday, October 13 at 7:30 at L’Etage. And bringing Us a single red rose. (Hey, it’s Karen’s birthday, but it’s Our
damn horoscope…We can have any fantasy We want.)
Also, Happy Birthday to Dawn, who turns
twenty-four today all the way out in Arizonia.
Delta, Arizonia, to be specific.
What’s that flower you got
on? Could it be a faded rose from days
gone by?
Why yes; We HAVE lost Our mind…thank you so
much for noticing.
We are also Helen Reddy. Not to be confused with Helen ReddiWhip™. Or Hell On Wheels.
In other news of importance (as opposed to other
news of imPOtence) We are remounting
(ooooohhhh!) Our show, as We already mentioned, , LOOKING FOR URANUS: Starzina
Starfish-Browne’s Comeback Tour, the best-kept secret of the 2013
Philadelphia Fringe Festival, so that everyone who was too busy Fringing can
have a chance to see it. So get your
tickets now, kidz; We’re doing it one night only, Sunday, October 13 at 7:30 at
L’Etage:

Karen’s very tall brother
will be there. We do so enjoy men with
long…legs.
In other news, from The When
Your Day Starts Out Wrong It’s All Downhill From There Department, We were
lying abed this morning, long about 7:45AM, contemplating rolling over and
going back to sleep. We had just begun
releasing an exceptionally satisfying morning fart (meanwhile, Karen’s very
tall brother’s single red rose just wilted), when simultaneously a jackhammer
outside on OurStreetWhereWeLive began to jackhammer. In what We found, especially in the first
second or two, an extremely disconcerting display of timing. (Did that come outta Us?)
Needless to say (and yet,
saying it anyway), there would be no more sleep after that. And, if you could see war-torn Warnock
Street, you would marvel that they could find anything left to jackhammer.
(This is a really long fart
joke, isn’t it?)
(Also, it occurs to Us to
wonder if there is such a word as “needleless”, and, if so, do needleless
people become needlessly confused? (We would so love the phrase “less needles”
to be employable here, but, the correct phrase being “fewer needles”, We are
grammatically shit outta luck.))
And
here is the HorrorScope:
Out
of all the celebrities whose birthday is today (and lettuce just say, they include
Chubby Checker, fercrissakes), We feel compelled to inform you that it is
Zlatan Ibrahimovic’s birthday. (Yeah, We
don’t know either.)
This
is not the right time to make lofty plans or to race off in exciting new
directions — you just have to take care of the boring, mundane tasks that
occasionally take hold of your life. (Hey,
We fart like a jackhammer. Boring and
mundane doesn’t enter the picture.)
Your
routine is about to be tossed on its ear by a new person. (Just one sentence ago, We were supposed to be
“taking care of boring, mundane tasks”.
Suddenly, Our routine is on its ear.
The hell?)
Suddenly
you either desperately want to impress the heck out of them, (Is it just Us, or
do “desperately” and “heck” totally not belong in the same sentence?)
or
shadow them everywhere they go to find out what their secret is. (The secret
is, if they see their shadow, We get six more inches of wiener.)
(Are
you sensing a theme in here today?)
They
are so different from you (Well, taller, anyway.)
that
you find them more fascinating than the latest celebrity gossip, political news
or anything else. (We’ll take “Anything Else” for $500, Alex.)
Finding
out what makes them tick will be one of those challenges that inspire you to
get creative and clever. (That’d be just Our luck…Mister Right finally shows up
on Our doorstep, and he’s wired to explode.)
This
person is good for you — in one way or another.
(So is kale.)
(We
have no idea why We just said that.)
Focus
on the body now (It’s Our body, and We’ll cry if We want to, cry if We want to,
cry if We want to…you would cry, too if Gerard Depardieu.)
— the whole mind/body/heart needs attention,
but mostly the middle part. (You’re
acting as if “mind/body/heart” is a thing. “Mind/body/heart” isn’t a thing.
AssHatt.)
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://sett.com/astrogeek895/. Our
Own epistular musings are of use to you only insofar as making you feel better
by comparison, but he will give you actual pertinent advice for your very own lives,
based on upon the positions and transitations of all manner of planets,
planetoids, asteroids, Altoids™, hemorrhoids, and other heavenly flotsam,
jetsam, and Jetsons. Plus, he knows all about Uranus!)

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.
