Mercury’s miscellany

I suppose it’s a story that can now be told. All about the mishaps and miscues from Mercury (in apparent retrograde position): Cousin Pepper emailed me a phone number, which was the hotel she was staying at. Two digits off. But then, a second email confirmed the number, but alas, it was still two digits off. Finally, she left a voice mail, same number, two digits off. Which made for an amusing situation, to me, and a small amount of frustration. I tend to dodge Mercury bullets, being acutely aware. Didn’t dodge that one, two digits off.

As per the warning, the mistake was reiterated, three times over. Funny, to me.

MLM Idea:
With a loyal reader-base, I’ve wondered why I can’t strike it rich with some kind of a scam. I just haven’t found anything that looks attractive

Movement:
It spans several different groups, and it outlasts other trends? Goth!

Always looking for the roots.

What they are doing online.

Sudan gold.

Want to bet?
Guy sells everything, then bets it all on a single roulette spin.

Mac versus Opera.

Maps and Canada:
Can’t say I’m not “centric” to one place. Or maybe you can say that. Still, striking visual image.

Scorpio nod:
Lyle Lovett on tour.

Looking forward:
Cormac McCarthy, for some reason, he doesn’t translate well to film. Usually. But this could change.
