CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Please don't wear a t-shirt that says what I saw on the canary yellow t-shirt of the Japanese tourist at JFK airport: "Sorry, I'm a loser." I also beg you not to read Ethan Trex's book *How to Seem Like a Better Person Without Actually Improving Yourself.* It's very important, in my astrological opinion, that you not demean or underestimate yourself in the coming days. In fact, I'll go so far as to say that you have a sacred duty to exalt your beauty and exult in your talents. Now go read Walt Whitman's Song of Myself, and periodically murmur the first line all week long: "I celebrate myself, and sing myself."


...this came none too soon.

That's the coolest horoscope ever! I can't imagine you thinking you're a loser, not in a million years. If I wore a shirt like that I definitely wouldn't have the word "sorry" in it. I hope these horoscopes are right, mine says that I may make money while on the path to enlightenment this year, that's my vision for 2009. Right on.

I will definitely take your advice and line my oven with foil, so simple and it will prevent me from having such an oven odyssey in the future.

"I celebrate myself, I sing to myself"

if that's not an awesome mantra, I don't know what is!

I love Rob's horoscopes - many many times he has given me the exact words at the right time - and YES! "I celebrate myself" is a very powerful mantra.
