Horoscope for the week of September 12, 2001

You will achieve a form of immortality when you choose a tombstone that’s perfect for balancing beer kegs.


You will receive frightening news regarding the U.N.’s Council For The Prevention Of Nuclear Terrorism. For one thing, it doesn’t exist.

Your arrest and execution for espionage could have been avoided if only you hadn’t argued over who would wear the back of the horse suit.

Your attempt to explain to the judge that you “just wanted to see what horse laxative smelled like” is met with deep suspicion.

Your fall from grace will be compared to that of Lucifer, but only in that you both managed to take a chunk of a wall down with you.

You will experience conflicting emotions when, upon coming home next Friday, your friends jump out of hiding, yell “Surprise!,” and kill you with axes.

You will soon be the envy of all your coworkers, who, as luck would have it, are all necrophiliac contract-bridge players.

You have a crazy brother who insists he’s a chicken. You’d send him to a doctor, but you need the fried chicken.
