FreeWill Looks Quizzical
Sagittarius Horoscope for week of July 2, 2015
There are lots of inquiries and invitations coming your way -- perhaps too many. I don't think you should pursue all of them. In fact, I suspect that only one would ultimately make you a better human being and a braver explorer and a wiser lover. And that one, at first glance, may have not as much initial appeal as some of the others. So your first task is to dig deep to identify the propositions that are attractive on the surface but not very substantial. Then you're more likely to recognize the offer that will have lasting value even if it doesn't make a spectacular first impression.
You WOULD have to say that to a research addict, would you?

Baits And Switches
Today I took Dad to Morristown to shop for replacement wheels to fit his mulcher. There is a little place just east of downtown (Tools N More) that we shopped at when I was in school...they were the best source because they handle surplus stock parts. I didn't expect to go there; I did expect to go to Lowe's because sister Lynn gave him a Lowe's card for Father's Day. But he told me he had already checked with them and they didn't have what he needed.
He was unclear about what he wanted to do when we sortied out...but we worked it out eventually.
After downtown we had an adventure finding the Social Security office in Morristown. They instructions he'd received on where it is were also rather unclear and perplexing. It took us three tries to find the place, as there weren't proper signs in the places they need to be, and the building's back is to the main road.
But now he knows where it is, and can take a friend for a required conference soon.
On Facebook today, I clicked on an ad about high school yearbooks...but if I had known it was classmates.com I would have passed it by. I HATE classmates.com; they don't get it that not everybody had a good time in teenage life. But now I'm on the hook again for their stupid junk e-mail and I'm going to have to dredge out that old Dear John e-mail I sent them years ago. Bleh.

The Politics Of FPilot
Decided to pull this out for a number of reasons. OKCupid has a political test on their site; this is my results, with an orientation correction (their left was our right, so I changed it back) and colorization. The horizontal dimension is Civil Liberty; the vertical dimension is Corporate/Economic Liberty. As you can see, I'm South of Center, on the border between Moderate Democratism and Moderate Socialism. Which is why I have a problem with the radicals on the various fringes of the issues these days.

You Don't Have To Be A Star, Baby--To Be In My Show!
Your result for If You Were to Make a TV Show, What Type of Station Would It Be On?...
Basic
43% Basic, 14% Educational, 14% Cable and 29% Movie!
Basic TV use to be free. It is now the stuff that you get really cheap or in most package deals automatically. The stuff on these channels typically are the news and soap operas, although there are other shows. These stations give the least leeway in inappropriateness, but are viewed by the most people.

Writer's Block: Animal magnetism
[Error: unknown template qotd]
I'm told that revealing the nature of your spirit animal diminishes its power to help you, so I'm not going to answer that first one. Other than the only thing it has in common with the second is that it's a predator. Not that I actually choose the latter animal, just that it appears often enough in other memes I've done here.
