PUBLISHED! (Uhm… wait…)

It’s out! The article was snipped down a bit, but it’s there! You can see it on http://www.lansingcitypulse.com/ or pick up an issue in the Lansing area. It’s on page 17.

If you’re not in the area, and you want a copy, let me know and I’ll pick one up for you.

Horoscope

TAURUS (April 20-May 20): Harvest time in March? That’s what the astrological omens say for you Bulls. During the next few weeks you’ll be reaping the fruits of all the seeds you’ve sown since your last birthday. One of the pesky weeds you didn’t uproot will also be reaching full bloom, but the tiny bit of blight it engenders will be vastly overshadowed by the richness of your rewards. I suggest you throw a party or two to celebrate your bounty, express gratitude to your helpers, and offer forgiveness to your doubters.

Not what it seems.

I COULD be in a coffee shop. Or I COULD be in a landromat. Not quite sure at this point.

It’s got free internet access (wired), gourmet coffee, and little lamps for non-flourescent light. It’s got ample electrical outlets for charging your laptop, too.

Not only that, but the laundromat side is all digital. No quarters. You purchase a re-usable little plastic “key” with a money chip on it, just like you get in a Kinko’s card or in some library cards. I’m pretty sure the LCC StarCard uses that system, as well. Unfortunately, the machine that takes your money and gives you your key doesn’t give change. It looks like they charge $1.50 for the key, so that people won’t just come in and keep getting them. Of course, that’s a nice way to make a little added cash off of new customers.

I came here on recommendation of , and my only complaint so far is that there are no public bathrooms. However, they do apologize for that on a sign in their front door.

Horoscope

TAURUS (April 20-May 20): How long do you want to live? Before you answer, remember that thousands of scientists are engaged in research to crack the code of the aging process. They will ultimately make breakthroughs that could allow you to be healthy and vigorous for many more decades. In the meantime, the astrological omens suggest this is a perfect moment to meditate on what you can personally do to promote your own longevity. What habits of mind and body can you cultivate that will keep you forever fresh? And now I drink a toast to your coffin, Taurus. May it be fashioned of lumber obtained from a hundred-year-old cypress tree whose seed will be planted this week.
