I got a funny call the other day. This guy asks if I do signs. I said "Yes" And then he says, " I'm a Leo". I said "What? What are you talking about?" Silence,,,,,then I just hung up.

I got a call like that a few years ago and the guy sounded really messed up and wanted to talk astrology. I hung up. I so like caller ID so I can see who it is. This showed someone out of California.

Talking about astrology I keep an observation by Carl Sagon in mind that scientifically exposes astrology for the myth that it is...the only effect the planets could have on us would be that of gravity...anything that posseses mass has a measure of gravity commensurate to the size of the mass...the planets are so far away from earth that their gravity has less effect on us than the attending doctor at our birth.

Now can anyone explain to me with creditable evidence why that the position of the planets at my birth could in anyway be responsible for anything in my life...what forces would be at work?

If astrology was anywhere near real, then every prediction for every sign on 10 September 2001 would have said "Consider taking a day off work tomorrow".

The moon has the power to suck the oceans back and forth each day, but somehow humans are never effected? [I Don t Know] being 2/3 water even [Eek!] we must be an amazing species. [Razz]

Rusty - no prob....
I met a voodoo queen in New Orleans and after a few rounds, she absolved all my friends of any planetary imbalances.

Sleep well, my friend.......

Got a call many years ago to see if we were interested in a "Swingers Club" - we thought it was about Square Dancing.

I've seen this here before I think, but it's worth another look. I keep this on my desktop when I hang up with someone who thinks they are in control or knows everything.

When i started the business my wife and I decided to call it Strokes by Don, thinking this would cover all types of brush strokes.

You should hear some of the calls I've had.

I was working with a group for children when my son was little and I did say that I do signs, and they all told me later that they thought I knew sign language. I wondered why they never asked me to do any signs for them but wasn't worried, just later when the subject came up I found out why. lol.
