Crack, Crown, frozen over, died.

Shin'ichi's Humorscope:
Your plans for a do-it-yourself replica medieval catapult will arrive today! Soon, your neighbors will become nervous (but you can explain that their fears are groundless -- you couldn't possibly hit anything that close with it).

Kaito's Humorscope:
Not an especially good day to play with crossbows, guns, machetes, flame throwers, mortars, heavy artillery, knives, ninja throwing stars, spears, maces, or nuclear weaponry. At least not all at once. Why not go out and putter about in the garden?

.... I don't think I really need to say anything. It's pretty much a story right there.

Cheesecrack Prom Night tonight. I was crowned King of Senior Cheesecrack, with Em as my Queen. I got a crown and a bullwhip and everyone was happy. Mwuahahahahahahaaa. still picking streamers out of strange places. muh hair. it et it.

Also, in completely random news, Hell Has Frozen Over. We currently have a few inches of snow on Mount Lemmon above Tucson. OMFG.

Robert Asprin, science-fiction author and one of the founding members of the Great Dark Horde, died yesterday. He was reading a Terry Prachett book when he passed away.

I heard about Asprin - sad sad news. But at least he was laughing before he passed on (come on, Pratchett? How could you be sad while reading Pratchett?).

And, uh...forgive my ignorance. But Humorscope? _{And where can I get one?}

The first-person account that I read of Asprin's death said that he looked like he'd just fallen asleep for a nap, holding the book. Don't know which one though.

Shin'ichi is a Taurus, Kaito is a Cancer/Gemini cusp (I figure one for Kaito, one for Kid), Saguru is a Virgo and Aoko is either Virgo or Libra, I generally figure she's a Libra. No one else has canon birthdays as of yet. ^__^

For some reason, I think my brain already stamped Saguru as a Virgo. I'm really not sure why. Probably because it was more hilarious that way. *puzzles* ^.^;

I know this may sound weird, but it seems like one of the best deaths ever - reading Terry P. before napping. (Not to sound horribly morbid or anything...). =3

Saguru fits Virgo entirely too well. He's intelligent, sarcastic, over-organized, somewhat repressed, tends toward a conservative, put-together appearance... He's practically a laundry list of the sign's traits.
