Cranky Large Medium reading, 8 July

Go away.

Aren't you gone yet? Why not? What is it about my little mountainside that drew you here and what can I do to erase that drawing? You want a reading, and then you'll go? I think I can arrange for that to happen... right now, in fact. Here you are:

You are interested in art and music, but lack talent, especially at the former. You are hyper, as well as moderately intelligent -- enough to get you into trouble with your absurd schemes. You are ... interesting, to put it politely.

Are you happy, now? Of course not. But at least you have the ability to be annoyed. That's certainly one up on these people, all of whom, on this date in history, gave up annoyance and other such emotions in favor of serenity eternal: Pepin, Kim Il-sung, Christiaan Huygens, Torbern Bergman, Johann Josef Loschmidt, Benjamin Baillaud, Havelock Ellis, Sin-Itiro Tomonaga, Robert B. Woodward, Saint Grimbald, Pope Eugene III, Pope Gregory XV, Moses Schorr, Percy Bysshe Shelley, Ward Kimball, Walter Kittredge, Michael Wilding, Howard Duff, James Franciscus, Dick Sargent, Peter Hawkins, June Allyson, Wild Bill Hallahan, Skeeter Webb, Diego de Almagro, William Edward Parry, Elihu Yale, Ben Holladay, Grace Coolidge, Pete Conrad,

and Charlie Shavers.

Happy birthday, anyway.
