Cranky Large Medium reading, 9 July

Go away.

Why won't you go? Just what do you have against the solitude of an old anchorite? Did I do something cruel to you in a previous life? I can't recall having met you before. Oh, it's nothing personal, is it? You just came for something you believe you're entitled to demand of me, even though.... On the positive side, if I give you what you came here for, you'll leave, won't you? So, you came for what, exactly? Right. A reading. Simple enough. Get your walking shoes back on, because here it comes. Here you are:

You are ambitious and calculating, lacking in enthusiasm. Your methods are original, so the law may not be able to catch up with you right away. Your deductions are usually correct, which would indicate, under normal circumstances, that you have good judgment, but normal would not describe you.

Are you happy, now? Of course not. You don't jump out of your skin with enthusiasm. Still, you can at least be content that you're still running strong, as opposed to these people, all of whom, on this date in history, had their gears grind to a halt: Anastasius I, General Edward Braddock, Zachary Taylor, Thomas McKean Thompson McKennan, Oliver Law, Earl Warren, Amedeo Avogadro, Paul Broca, Alphonse François Renard, King C. Gillette, Stephen Langton, Jonathan Mayhew, Edmund Burke, Giovanni Bononcini, Robert Weede, John Drew Jr., Doug Fisher, Rod Steiger, Kevin Hagen, Charles Lane, Cornelia Otis Skinner, Isabel Sanford, Harry Heilmann, Pierre Le Moyne d'Iberville, Alice Paul, Jimmy Kinnon, Eric Sevareid, Bill Mosienko, Melvin Belli,

and Milan Williams.

Night shift? Shift it back.
Happy birthday, anyway.
