Exclamation Breaking News: jjjnettie consults horrorscope

Yes you heard it here first. I can personally confirm that our own jjjnettie was seen consulting her horoscope at lunch time today (The Courier Mail of all things; printed media).

When confronted over this obvious act of Astronomical Heresy her reply was:
"Oahhhh!!! Its true! Its true!!!" before covering her mouth with her hands!!!!

Unfortunately photographic evidence is not available. She left her Iphone ...... in the car!!

I was only comparing the page space taken up with the horoscope section, to the amount of room given to Astronomy on the next page.
It's disgraceful.
One square inch for Astro, 1/3 page for horoscope.

I was going to deny that this ever happened, but I'll share my story in support of the lovely JJJ

On Monday morning, upon arriving to work, I checked in with one Mr Jonathan Cainer to see whether he reckoned my 1/12th of the world would have a decent week ahead at work (oh, the shame, the shame). I had to laugh to myself, because on his homepage, his "letter of the day" was a stern rebuke to one of his readers who insisted that 2012=DEADLY PLANETARY DEATH, and firmly endeavoured to set her straight about dodgy internet fake planet conspiracies.

So, even those who recieve compensation for constant creation of twelve daily pithy pieces of prosaic postulation do their share of myth-busting on our behalf
