Your Almost Daily Horoscope
(Ramp Accessible)
You suffer from automonosis—the tendency to become bored with your own company. If you need to get away from yourself, here's a tip: you don't have to die in order to be reincarnated. People who don't like themselves often find happiness when they become somebody else. Companies that advertise in the backs of magazines are ready to assist in this transformation. If there are compelling personal reasons for not changing your identity, perhaps a trip to a spa for a simple makeover will do the trick.

Radio Station Urges Bruce Springsteen Fans to Burn His CDs

"A horse, a horse, my kingdom for a horse."
PHILADELPHIA - Classic-rock station WOLD in Philadelphia is urging Bruce Springsteen fans to meet in the station's parking lot on City Line Avenue this Saturday at 10:00 a.m. and to bring their Springsteen CDs with them.

"We're going to torch those suckers to send a message to The Boss," said Chip Delaney, one half of the popular Chip & Dip morning drive time show on WOLD.

Like many Springsteen fans, Mr. Delaney was gobsmacked to learn that his idol is being sued by a former member of the United States Olympic Equestrian Team for reneging on a deal to buy an $850,000 show horse for Mr. Springsteen's fifteen-year-old daughter, Jessica.

Mr. Delaney isn't disappointed that Mr. Springsteen allegedly backed out of a contract. The disk jockey is off his feed because Mr. Springsteen not only goes to horse shows but also spends hundreds of thousands of dollars on horses.

"He already owns one frickin' horse valued at $200,000," said Mr. Delaney, "and we're supposed to believe this guy is one of us? Champion of the common man my ass. I got my daughter an iPod for her birthday."

Longtime Springsteen fan Tank Lionetti, an unemployed sheet metal worker, echoed Mr. Delaney's dismay.

"Eight hundred and fifty grand for a horse? Are you kiddin' me? Goddamn horse must be better looking than his wife. Maybe she didn't want him to buy it because she was jealous."


In related news, WOLD is offering two free tickets to a Van Halen concert to the listener who comes up with the best rewrite of a Bruce Springsteen lyric that incorporates a horse-showing theme.

"'Had a wife and kids in Baltimore, Jack, went out to buy a horse and never came back,' something along that line," said Mr. Delaney.

Former Penn State football coach Joe Paterno did not die of a broken heart, as many of his delusional followers are claiming. He died of a guilty conscience. Anybody who says otherwise is a toadying douchebag.
