SATURDAY, AUGUST 28, 2010 JERRY SCOTT & JIM BORGMAN
BIRTHDAY | AUG. 28 HOROSCOPE
This is your year of charismatic influence. You will engage people, sell them on
your services and products, and make it fun for them to buy into your ideas and point of view. You’ll be a champion for your family in September. Your powers of attraction are especially obvious in January. You’ll make a forever friend in February. Taurus and Scorpio people adore you.
ARIES (MARCH 21-APRIL 19). Novel, wild and risky scenarios hold a strong attraction for you. If it’s unusual, you don’t want to merely hear about it, you want to experience it firsthand.
CANDORVILLE DARRIN BELL
TAURUS (APRIL 20-MAY 20). You have, on several occasions, gracefully extricated yourself from an uncomfortable situation. You’ll do it again soon. How? You will align yourself with a higher purpose and simply transcend it.
GEMINI (MAY 21-JUNE 21). You will equalize your family. This takes great powers of empathy, since at least one person will behave in a way that is difficult to understand. You’ll figure out where each one is coming from and help them meet in the middle.
CANCER (JUNE 22-JULY 22). You do not have to work hard to be the epitome of grace. You simply give each person the respect he or she deserves, and the result is that you have perfect manners and heaps of charm.
THE AMAZING SPIDER-MAN STAN LEE & LARRY LIEBER
LEO (JULY 23-AUG. 22). There is a silent competition going on. You have an excellent strategy. It may seem to some that you are fraternizing with the enemy. Indeed, by doing so, the enemy becomes an ally.
TANK MCNAMARA JEFF MILLAR & BILL HINDS
VIRGO (AUG. 23-SEPT. 22). The ones who do you a favor want nothing in return. Or so they say. The difference between a loan and a gift is that one should be repaid literally and the other should be repaid in a more creative way.
WATCH YOUR HEAD CORY THOMAS
LIBRA (SEPT. 23-OCT. 23). You have an ideal image in your head about how you want to look, but sometimes your body doesn’t seem to want to cooperate. You deserve to look nice anyway. Invest in yourself.
PRICKLY CITY SCOTT STANTIS
SCORPIO (OCT. 24-NOV. 21). Everyone gets disillusioned at one time or another. But that doesn’t mean you have to stop believing. Try investing in illusions of your own weaving. Then you will know what to expect and won’t be disappointed.
BABY BLUES NON SEQUITUR WILEY RICK KIRKMAN & JERRY SCOTT
SAGITTARIUS (NOV. 22-DEC. 21). Look into the future — this October, to be exact — and set an exciting goal. Daily action will get you there. And yes, it will be as good as you think it will be.
ON THE FASTRACK BIG NATE LINCOLN PEIRCE BILL HOLBROOK
CAPRICORN (DEC. 22-JAN. 19). Should love be this much work? After all, getting into it was easy — you just fell. Climbing out of it should be the hard part. But it doesn’t work that way. For love to live, you have to find new ways to keep falling.
PEARLS BEFORE SWINE BEETLE BAILEY MORT, BRIAN & GREG WALKER STEPHAN PASTIS
AQUARIUS (JAN. 20-FEB. 18). It may feel as though you’re not doing much, but in reality, it takes massive amounts of brainpower to sustain your current lifestyle and manner of being. Be sure to thank your body and mind for keeping up with you!
PISCES (FEB. 19-MARCH 20). To stay successful at this job, you’ll have to maintain your energy and love for the work. Find a person in similar straits whom you can look up to. You will be especially susceptible to the encouragement of a Gemini.
