today's odd spam subject:

get your meds here once you come to our homepage menstruate

How am I supposed to do that on demand? Why would I want to, anyway?

apparently, Virgo got "back"!

You are 80% Virgo

How much do you match your zodiac sign?

Y'all are perhaps familiar with the quote, "The first sign of being sane is questioning whether you are sane. The truly insane never question; they just live the insanity." It occurs to me that other things can be plugged into this and it still works well. For example, "The first sign of lacking power is questioning whether you are powerful. The truly powerful never question; they just live the power." (note that I am talking about personal power here, although I suppose it applies as well to temporal power)

This comes up because three times in the past 24 hours or so I have been called brilliant/insightful/wise, with strong phrasing, by people who I myself consider to be in that company. It's starting to go to my head. *crooked smile*

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): "To the mind that is still," said the ancient Chinese sage Lao Tzu, "the whole universe surrenders." This is true all the time, of course, but in the coming weeks it will be even more intensely true for you. According to traditional astrologers, that would be a problem. They believe that advising Virgos to keep their minds still is like ordering Niagara Falls to stop splashing 600,000 gallons of water per second over its precipice. But here's my nontraditional perspective: It may be harder for you Virgos to quiet your mind, but if and when you actually accomplish it, the universe surrenders more completely to you than to any other sign. (P.S. On March 29, 1848, an ice jam stopped the flow of water over Niagara Falls for several hours.)
