Senator Johnson stable condition

Seems Mr.A.Cat and Lim over at Lim's Limericks can put their worst fears to rest for S.D. Sen Johnson in Critical Condition but recovering from surgery due to a congenital brain malformation.

Best wishes for a speedy recovery, Senator!

Washington DC in December

UPDATE on Senator Johnson 11:30 pm: South Dakota senator hospitalized has the tidbit that Senator Johnson did not have a stroke or a heart attack.

Hmm-m-m...then just what did he have? A cup of tea?

Don't ask Lim or Mr.A.Cat unless you're immune to the pithy limericks at Lim's Limericks where you'll find Cat Spies Revealed...quite shocking!

The Hour Grows Late:

Tic toc tic toc...as Bush gives getting out of Iraq some careful thought--totally unlike when he insisted on taking us in. And the press, as usual, is letting us down covering this charade as if Bush is "listening" to all these "ideas" he has no intention of following...he's incapable of that as well.


And from earlier today...


Weighty matters here at Stars Over Washington including Democratic Senators like Senator Johnson who suddenly conk out with strokes at a most convenient time for the GOP (and when Bush, Cheney, and Rove are on the ropes) and looking at Johnson's natal chart (Dec 28 1946, Canton, SD) and the noon chart for today's trip to GWU Hospital have led me to a lighter DC note...

...a wonderful article on Gather.com from DC resident Roshani Kothari Explore DC in a Weekend where you'll find links galore to all manner of entertainment, restaurants, hotels, and the sights in our Capital City.

From hot apple cider at the Eastern Market to the affordable, historic Tabard Inn in Dupont Circle, this article is a great compilation of DC links and points of interest...there's even a link to the Metro website with maps and schedules.

Makes me long for Rock Creek Park which is also on the article's links list. You can have a virtual visit even if you're not popping into DC for a Holiday Weekend!

The Astrology of Blogging

Well, I just discovered that while under-the-weather the last few days, I've been tagged by at least two of my illustrious astrology colleagues, Lynn at AstroDynamics and Urania at Urania's 9th House.

What are my chart indications for why I blog about the ancient art of Astrology?

Ok, guys, since you asked, here goes...Uranus in Gemini in 10th house quincunx Mercury/Mars conjunction in Cap, 5th house...chart-ruler Mercury also ruling 10th h with Rigel at Mc. Also in 5th house is Urania.

Mercury is not in major aspect to Saturn in 12th, but in mutual reception.

3rd house cusp in Scorpio, Vesta in Scorpio therein opposite 9th house Taurean Pallas for some patterning ability...good for artwork as well. 3rd house of Communications also contains a Sagittarian Chiron, inventor of Astrology. By progression, Vesta and Chiron are now conjunct.

Sun/Jupiter conj in Cap, 4th house, both trining Saturn.

Purchased my first two Astrology books, age 12, as Uranus crossed over Mc by progression--and as the illustrious Noel Tyl informed me in 1997, a new interest of mine at age 12 relating to Career should be taken up again.

And so I have.

If they're not tagged already, I'd like to tag: Kathryn, Nina, and Elsa!
