It starts with M and rhymes with 'money'.
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist.  This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair.  Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second.  That means there's a situation vacant.'

By the way, it tells you to have müsli with oats and grated apple. It's a very health conscious star.

Yep, southern Louisiana is just rotten with these charlatans -- astrologers, so-called psychics, tarot readers, the works. Their fucking shops are everywhere.

Now all the signs are moved and people have new signs. So much for their sign being true!! Also the days are all kinds of funky. Instead of saying 'to July 22nd and the next one starting on the 23rd' they start and end on the same day. So I have two signs on my birthday of July 20th. I was like wait do I just get to pick which sign I want then?
