Hello, Ducks!
Starzina Starfish-Browne here with your
Eric’s! Daily! Horoscope! for GoodPieRupeeTuesday, November AteTeenst, 2014.
It’s all fun and games till you realize that
Casper the Friendly Ghost is a dead child.
Happy Birthday to Kathy, who turns
twenty-four today all the way out in Pittsburgh. Where, Our InterNetz inform
Us, it is colder than it is here in The City Of Brotherly Love Handles.
Happy Birthday also to Jacquie, who also
turns twenty-four today all the way down in Georgia. Where One would imagine it would be warmer than it is here in The City That Loves
You (On Your) Back. However, Our InterNetz tell Us it is the same temperature in
Georgia as it is here.
Whatevs, InterNetz.
In other news, this just in from Our Gentle
Reader Katie (hi, Katie!) somewhere out on The Left Coast, where We’re not even
going to look up how much warmer it is than it is here. This is absotively posilutely the very last
set of Life Hacks you will ever need (it is Safe For Work):
If you are one of the people who was fortunate
enough to see Our live show, Looking for Uranus: Starzina Starfish-Browne’s
Comeback Tour, you will be aware of Our, shall We say,
affection, for British boy band One Direction.
We are aware that many of you do not share Our affection, but, nevertheless,
here are the boys on Sesame Street, and
if you’ve seen anything more adorkable so far today, please don’t tell Us what
it is, because We might spontaneously combust from the squee (this is also Safe For Work
(although the word “underpants” is used therein (adorably, We might add))):
Meanwhile, those of Our Gentle Readers with
functional long-term memories will recall a week or ten days ago or so, when #alexfromtarget
was A Thing for a hot minute. As he was
sliding down the other side of his fifteen minutes of fame, We Our Own Self
Personally said, right here in these hallowed pages:
“Is
anyone else amazed at how quickly #alexfromtarget has become Not A
Thing Anymore? Although We were at the CVS yesterday, and if We could
have thought of a polite way to take a picture, #lukefromCVS would totally be A
Thing today.”
Well, move over, #alexfromtarget, and step aside,
#lukefromcvs, because here comes (heh) #clemfrom7eleven…
Please note that the following is NOT
Safe For Work. In
fact, for many of you, it is NOT EVEN SAFE FOR HOME. It depicts a 7-Eleven employee doing EXACTLY
what the URL says he is doing. (Thereby, presumably, becoming an EX-7-Eleven employee. (They wouldn’t put up with this crap at
Wawa. (Or even Sheetz.))
You have been WARNED.
And now, for something completely different,
We’re going to complain. (You’re
shocked, We know.)
This Murder Mystery Factory job is going to be the death of Us. We get paid when We show up to do a show, one amount if We act in it, and a larger amount if We host/stage manage it (which makes sense, because that job is more stressful, more annoying, harder, and completely unsuitable for us). But since We have Peter-Principled Our way up to being Large Marge In Charge, We find that We are doing all kinds of work outside (scheduling, casting, rehearsing) for which We are getting paid exactly nothing. Granted, some of that work exists because We refuse to descend to the level of quality that has been deemed acceptable there in the past, but some of it does not, and We’re not exactly sure how much more of this We’re willing to put up with.
Okay, We’re done.
(That wasn’t so bad, was it?)
Moving on, didja know that We have been
e-pisstling e-pissodes of these e-pisstles in one form or another since
2001? And that the earliest dead-tree
archival records from 2004 are now TEN YEARS OLD, and can be found (for a small
fee) here:
We have precious little else to report
(Precious Little is, of course, Chicken Little’s slutty sister. (Else is her married name. (Vacation time
shares are still available in the windmills of Our mind for January and most of
February.))), so We suggest that, if you’re in the mood for Our usual humor with
a side of smut, you check out Our recent
Joseph Gordon-Levitt Day here:
or any of the “Elih Tani naked”/”Elih Tani’s penis” chronicles, somewhere in
the vicinity of here:
Meanwhile, We have leapt feet first,
nipples-to-the-wind and tits akimbo, into Scorpio, and Our Scorpio video is
above. Here is the link with which you may share it with both of your
friends:
Thank Gawd We didn’t stray from the point.

Celebrity Birthday Fun
Fact: both Linda Evans (Dynasty) and Susan Sullivan (Falcon Crest) were born seventy-two
years ago today. (Now THERE’S a brain
cell you’ll never get back.)
·
Aries You'll show the world
just how good an infant car seat can be once you cast aside petty concerns like
cost and safety.
·
Taurus It's not true that
opening the dictionary to "loser" shows your picture, but for some
reason they're still using it for "anteater," "caisson,"
and "dumbass."
·
Gemini Sadly,
it turns out that of all the people you've ever known, the only one who has your
best interests at heart is comedian Katt Williams.
·
Cancer For
some reason, all your plans for life boil down to "In the confusion, we
get away with both the money and the girl."
·
Leo We don't get to choose
the person we fall in love with, as is obvious from the human pile of garbage
you'll be following around with roses and candy this week.
·
Virgo They say if you don't
stand for something, you'll fall for anything, which is good enough for people
who aren't going to have their legs taken off by a road grader this week.
·
Libra Now that you take a
closer look at what's on display, you can tell exactly why the emperor has no
clothes. I mean, Jesus Christ.
·
Scorpio You'll
be ruled unfit for trial, but they seem to think you're just fine for
sentencing and execution.
·
Sagittarius You
said you'd retired, but $45 and a free bag of groceries isn't something a
person can just walk away from.
·
Capricorn You
have to stop worrying about what everyone else says, especially nonsense like
"You should dress better," "Nice people don't do that," and
"Put down the gun and release the hostages."
·
Aquarius You've
always thought of yourself as the ultimate cat person, but you'll change your
mind this week after meeting the 7 feet of man and whiskers that is Big Meow
Johnson.
·
Pisces You
will soon make a comfortable living exploiting other people's deep-seated
anxieties and crippling fears.
Namaste, MotherFuckers.
In gaseousness,
Starzina Starfish-Browne

(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.
