What’s your sign?

By Art Gallagher

In a economic stimulus plan for tattoo artists and bling dealers, Paul Kunkle of the Minnesota Planetarium Society has published a new Zodiac calender.

Turns out the earth is wobbling on its axis and the sun is not really where your horoscope says it is, sometimes. That and there was a political decision 2000 or 3000 years ago to have 12 Zodiac signs when there were really 13.

Maybe climate change is caused by the earth’s wobbling. Political incivility can now be explained by people relating to each other based on the wrong sign.

Does anyone know the birth stone for the new/old sign, Ophiucus?
