Joke of the Day
A union shop steward is addressing a union meeting...
"Comrades. We have agreed on a new deal with the management. We will no longer work four days a week."
"Hooray!", goes the crowd.
"We will finish work at 4 PM, not 5 PM."
"Hooray!", goes the crowd, again.
"We will start work at 10 AM, not 9 AM."
"Hooray!"
"We have a 150% pay rise."
"Hooray!"
"We will only work on Wednesdays."
Silence...then a voice from the back asks, "Every Wednesday?"

Horoscopes
Aries
Details aren't at the very top of your 'favorites' list. The problem is that they take time, and, even when you've got time to spare, you're always in a hurry. It's just how you are. Today, however, for some darned reason, you're quite focused on each and every detail of each and every project you're involved with -- maybe even to a fault. It might be time to take a step back and look at the big picture.
Taurus
It had to happen. You can only be surrounded by admiring fans for so long before one of them strikes your fancy in a very special way. So, about the one that's done just that. Are you ready to get to know them better? You certainly are. If they haven't been showering you with invitations, it's not because they haven't wanted to -- but they might be shy. Make the first move.
Gemini
Sit down and count to 10 -- no, better make that 20. You're pretty darned angry about something, and it came upon you so suddenly that you're not sure what to do about it. Oh, and if you're in the same room with the person who managed to push those buttons -- say, if it's a coworker -- better put some distance between you two. One never knows what you might say or do right now.
Cancer
You weren't expecting this, but it's all going to work out well. Whether it's a call, an email or a surprise visit, something's going to make it tough to keep your plans today -- the way they stood, at least. But last-minute surprises can be fun, and when you've got something this good to look forward to -- well, the more the merrier, right? Keep that in mind when the person responsible for these unexpected treats shows up with that look on their face
Leo
Still thinking about shopping? Well, if you haven't gone yet, you'd better expect that your willpower will be just about running on empty. An impressive spree should be taking place right about now. Big time. The good news is that you'll be able to find exactly what you need if you look around a little bit. And since getting there is half the fun, of course, you won't mind the search at all.
Virgo
You don't often find yourself in the mood to do something totally unpredictable. But today? Well, you won't want to do anything at all that could be considered routine. You're after a break in the action, a change of scenery and an experience you've never had. You might have to wait until after work, since you're probably quite busy there. But once you're finished -- go for it!
Libra
Still in the mood to hibernate? Well, don't force yourself to go out if you're not ready. After all, you have your reputation to think of, your reputation as the most accommodating, sociable and charming sign in the heavens, that is. If you were to go out there now, feeling like this, you'd ruin it -- and you can't have that. Think of it as doing the world a favor. They wouldn't want to see you like this, and you deserve a little break.
Scorpio
Don't let even one more day pass without getting together with the person you've been dreaming about. It really wouldn't be fair -- to you, of course, but to them, too. With the kind of mood you're in, they'll get to see the depth and intensity you're so famous for -- and the passion, too. Don't keep it from them, and don't be afraid to make the first move, either. They'll love it, and you'll be having a ball.
Sagittarius
Work again, huh? Overtime, too? Well you may be feeling better about all this, but there is likely someone out there who's less than delighted at once again sharing you. They'd rather be lavishing you with their own tender loving care. You've been threatening to take some time off, and you've earned it. If you want to appease them, this wouldn't be a bad time to do it.
Capricorn
It's not like you to wake up thinking about how to get out of work, but you did it today. It's also not like you to spend the day at work thinking about where you'd rather be, but you may do that, too. Don't be too hard on yourself. The heavens are making you restless -- and there's a good reason for it. There's someone you need to meet, and you won't if you're where you're 'supposed' to be. Change your routine, just a touch.
Aquarius
You're feeling so close to a certain person right now that you can hardly believe it. It's like you've know each other all your lives. Well, you might know each other from a past life, or they might just remind you of someone you're especially fond of. Regardless, you owe it to yourself to spend as much time as possible investigating. And enjoying their company.
Pisces
You want to spend time with someone, but not just anyone. You've never had a problem with your own company, after all. Does that mean you'll be choosy about who you're with for the next couple of days -- and for the rest of your life? It sure does. So whether this current interest knows it or not, if you've chosen to spend even an hour or two with them, they should be highly complimented.
