Look, I’ll call you in the morning or my service will explain





Hello, Ducks!




Starzina Starfish-Browne here with your Eric’s! Daily! Horoscope! for JustAnotherManOverboardMonday, April 14rd , 2014.



Happy Birthday to Adam, who turns twenty-four today all the way out in O Hai, Ohio.  Where, apparently, they grow some excellent specimens of the male of the species.  We really must round up Our wagon train and trundle a trek out yonder, with Our bus-and-truck tour of Little Whore On The Prairie.



“Little”, naturally, being a relative term.



Happy belated Birthday, meanwhile, to Dana, and Jared, and Shoshonna, and Teresa, and Thomas, each of whom turned twenty-four this past weekend somewhere on this glorious little globe of Ours.



Lest you accuse Us of roundabout clandestine namedropping, We shall just come right out (heh) and tell you that the Thomas in the preceding paragraph is none other than the author of the Declaration of Independence and the third President of these United States, Thomas Alva Jefferson, father of George and Weezie Jefferson, second cousin twice removed of Jefferson Davis, founder of the Jefferson Starship, and inventor of the electric light bulb, the electric chair, and the electric boogaloo.



We are fortunate enough to be able to hobnob with such exalted personages because We live in The Cradle Of American Civilization, nestled between the New World’s answer to the Tigris and Euphrates, Fluffya. (Also, said exalted personage is a seven-foot-tall red-headed Hottie McHott Hott With Hawtt Sauce, who happens to be Our SitOnMyFaceBook friend.)



Speaking of SitOnMyFaceBook, We will not be taking a quiz any time soon to determine the color of Our aura.  The color of Our aura generally depends on what We had for lunch.



Yes, indeed, ladies and genitals, from hobnobbing with Founding Fathers to fart jokes…We do it all here at Eric’s!Daily!Horoscope!



We ventured forth from The Cradle Of American Civilization yesterday to see Musical of Musicals: The Musical at the Montgomery Theater (We’re not exactly clear on where We were geographically, but We suspect We were somewhere near the O Hai, Ohio border. (If you imagine that such intrepid exploration was occasioned by one or more handsome young gentlemen, you would be entirely correct.))



At any rate, if you are one of Our far-flung Gentle Readers, you should definitely give your horsie a carrot and have him carry you on out to this show, wherever it may be, as it is a great deal of laugh-out-loud fun.  Info is here (apparently, they have InterNetz in The Hinterlands now…who knew?):  http://www.montgomerytheater.org/shows/musical-musicals-musical




In other news, please Save The Date for Saturday, May 10th, as the WaitStaff will be playing The Mother of All Match Games at L’Etage.  More on that story as it develops, but inside sources tell Us that Jesus H. Christ’s celebrity chair will be taken by His Mother, Mrs. Mary MotherOfGod! You won’t want to miss THAT!



In still other news, Eric’s!Daily!Horoscope! is coming up on a landmark…We will very shortly be celebrating our THOUSANDTH e-pissode in Bloggonia! Stay tuned for updates on the festivities!



We find Ourselves (not that We were looking for Us, but it’s a figger of speech) in the glorious sign of Aries, the harbinger of Spring and the anniversary of Our Own Personal nativity.  Our Aries video is above, and here is the link with which you may share it with your friends:



Also, for those of you who like cups of tea, and history, and someone in a tree, here is Our previous Aries video, featuring Our mother, Rosie Starfish, for comparison:




Also also, now that We have left Pisces, We need to randomly mention Johnny Depp, to return him to Number One Cited Celebrity status here at Eric’s!Daily!Horoscope!  We wouldn’t want him to get mad.



And here’s the HorrorScope:



A note to Our “Celebrity” Birthday Website:  if you cannot find a picture of the person in question anywhere on the WorldWideInterWebNetz, perhaps they are not quite the “celebrity” you imagine them to be.  Just sayin’.



Think about what that person in front of you really wants before taking action — they are almost certainly not revealing the whole truth. (Is anyone else disappointed when liars’ pants don’t actually catch fire?)




It’s not too hard to figure it out, though!  (There’s no such thing as “too hard”.  Much like “too rich”, “too thin”, or “looking too much like Zac Efron”.)




You’re going to have an enthusiastic fan today, (Just the one?)




and he or she will be singing your praises to anyone who will listen (So it’ll be like a musical then?)




— try not to blush too much!  (What is this, some Victorian operetta?  Do We need Our smelling salts?)




This wave of adulation might make you feel embarrassed at first, but as the day wears on and you take bow after bow, you’ll start to enjoy the sensation of being recognized for your work — and it will feel good. (Okay, all We took from that random string of words was the fact that “Wave of Adulation” would be a great band name.)




 This is a boost to your ego, (Leggo Our Eggo™.)




which means it’s a good time to initiate new projects. (Remind Us exactly when We started running a fraternity?  (Not that it doesn’t sound like a BRILLiant idea, you understand.))




You’re unstoppable.  (Does that sentence make anyone else think of diarrhea?  Just Us?  Alrighty, then.)




No one is hotter than you, (With the exception of George and Weezie Jefferson, pretty much everyone We have mentioned herein so far is.)




with your heart pounding, all worked up over some new interest or passion. (Sigh.)




Get your body moving and meet some new people — is it yoga? (You’re making the predictions, Bee-Yotch.)




 Stamp collecting?  (Seriously?)




Midnight bowling? (Okay, “Midnight Bowling” is totally a euphemism, riiiiight?)





Namaste, MotherFuckers.



In gaseousness,


Starzina Starfish-Browne

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.

Blame it on the bossa nova




Hello, Ducks!

Starzina Starfish-Browne here with your Eric’s Daily Horoscope for FryDaddyDay, November 16, 2012.   Happy Belated Birthday to Becky, who turned twenty-four yesterday in A Carolina.  Also, Happy Belated Birthday to Kari, who turned twenty-four yesterday in O Canada. (It occurs to Us just this very minute that an optimistic person would say that it’s not so much belated birthday wishes as it is very early advance birthday wishes for next year.)


Optimistic people are idiots.


In completely random news, SitOnMyFaceBook is suggesting that We should be friends with Jefferson Davis.  Yes, THAT Jefferson Davis. We are not making this up.


Meanwhile, other than having gotten up way too early this morning, Our Most Excellent Week is continuing to be Most Excellent.  As We already mentioned, it started with the filming of a new e-pissode of Starzina’s Time of the Month Horoscopes on Sunday, which We cannot wait for you to see.  Although it would seem We shall have to, as We have just discovered that Sagittarius begins this year on Turkey Day, and We shall be too busy shoveling food into Our piehole to get anywhere near a computer.  So you shall simply have to quiver with antici---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------pation.


On Wednesday, We had Our reading of Our murder mystery script, which was very successful.  We had dinner beforehand at Café Nola, which may prompt Us to sell OurHouseWhereWeLive and move in there.  Following the reading, We played this: http://cardsagainsthumanity.com/ because We are hip and hep and hot and happenin’.  Or at least Our friends are.


In between these two tentpole events, We had several lovely dinners with several lovely people.  Occasionally, it is very cool to be Us.

*************************************************************************************
Here is the link with which you would share Our Time of the Month Horoscope: Scorpio video with your friends, if you were (subjunctively) so inclined.  Like the plane. http://youtu.be/UiJLA4MRNNg .  Enjoy!

Speaking of complete non sequiturs (as opposed, presumably, to the incomplete kind), here is last year’s Scorpio video to compare with this year’s (see above):



Here’s the HorrorScope:

It is George S. Kaufman’s birthday.  As he is dead, he presumably did not take it with him. 

Theatre jokes.  Because We are gay.  And a nerd.  Gaynerd G. Krebs, that’s We.

It’s a great time to explore (It may or may not, however, be a grand night for singing.)

(Sorry to have disappointed everyone who expected a Dora the Explorer joke there.  But We?  Are unpredictable.  Also unpostdictable.  We haven’t been dict in a really long time.)

— your energy is powering up your curiosity, (Which, of course, killed the pussy.)

and the day is full of great surprises.  (Won’t YOU be surprised, when We show you Our dead pussy!)

Things are looking up for you and your people, (That would be a lyric from the Up With People sequel, Up The People’s Pussies.)

and it’s hard not to have fun tonight!  (It is child’s play, however, not to have Chicken Tonight™, Chicken Tonight™.  (Especially if you go to a Chinese restaurant.  Because then, it won’t be chicken, it’ll be--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------pussy.))

(Oddly enough, We appear to have stumbled into The Vat Of Vulgarity.  And that almost NEVER happens.)

Foreign ideas and influences can have a very constructive impact on your life right now, so do not fear them. (Apropos of nothing, isn’t it odd that a socialist and a socialite aren’t at all the same thing?)

Instead, reach out today (And touch someone?)

and explore different cultures in any way that makes you feel most comfortable.  (How ‘bout We go outside and find Ourself an Eye-tyalian boy?)

 Whether you simply listen to a foreign music radio station for a few miles, check out a restaurant that serves authentic ethnic food, or shop in a store that specializes in items from a different part of the world, you need to do something to broaden your ideas about culture.  (Apparently, you have not seen what is growing in the vegetable drawer in Our refrigerator.)

Set out to have a solo adventure, (That’s a euphemism, right?)

and you never know who you might meet. (We do know, however, who We will NOT meet.  George S. Kaufman, for example.  And Jefferson Davis.)

Go to a place where like-minded individuals can be found — a cool cafe, an art gallery, your favorite gourmet shop — and shop around.  (Is it wrong to think We should open a gourmet shop and call it Eydie Gourmet?)

(Oh, shut up.)
