You know I'm not Catholic or anything like that, but I always look for references anywhere I can find them. With that said: The unicorn referred to in (The Bible) Numbers 24:8 and also in Numbers 23:22, Job 39:9 and Psalm 92:10 is the extinct aurochs or wild ox. Step your game up! Old Spice is out. You may want to do Patchouli and Nag Champa Mist. LOL P.S. Ophiuchus isn't new: The earliest mention of the constellation is in Aratus, informed by the lost cata... [ More ]

So I went to the club last night to meet the la-dies. I left the walker at home and opted for the cane. The leisure suit still fit nicely and I donned a jaunty cap to complete the package. After adding a splash of Old Spice I was good to go.

I wasn't aware the cover charge had increased so much. The bouncer charged me $100 to enter (and he kept calling me a pimp)! But the three-hour wait was well worth it...sitting at the bar were a couple lovelies and next to them an open seat with my name on it.

After ordering my Tanqueray and tonic, I mentally rehearsed my opening line. The old standby What's your sign? used to work in the 70's so I thought I'd give it a shot. After all, it had been a long time since I'd gone clubbing.

When a lull in their conversation presented itself, I blurted, What's your sign? to the hottie sitting next to me. Both broke into a fit of laughter so I offered to buy them a drink, thinking I had broken some serious ice.

O-foo-kus , she finally replied.

My mind raced as I tried to decipher what 'o-foo-kus' meant. Pardon me? I asked.

O-foo-kus , she repeated.

Blushing, I asked, What's 'o-foo-kus' ? At this point my heart was pounding with fantasies of a threesome in the king's lair with these apparently foreign beauties.

It's a new sun sign! , her companion explained. Now there are 13 constellations of the zodiac. She then spelled it out, o-p-h-i-u-c-h-u-s.

I was disappointed that my translation was wrong but even more troubled that I had just purchased an expensive astrology software package. Everything would have to be re-formatted to accomodate this interloper of the cosmos. They had to be pulling my leg, making fun of the 'old guy'.

When is your birthday? , she continued.

December fourth , I answered. I'm a sagittarius.

Omiggod! they exclaimed in unison. You're an ophiuchus!

Suddenly feeling like a unicorn, I finished my drink, bid my adieu and headed home unaccompanied to the king's lair. I vowed to never do drugs before going clubbing again!

As I fell into slumber my thoughts drifted to unicorns, threesomes and a shadowy entity named Ophiuchus who wanted to spoil it all.
