": : Dear Morning Star Editor/Editorettes:
: : Wot's all this, then? After calling me every kind of charlatan, and poo-pooing my abilities to see into the future, you expect moi to write a horoscope section for your latest endeavor?? I think NOT! No second-rate sleazy supermarket tabloid like the Mohicanland Morning Star is going to carry a column written by Yours Semitruly, when she could write a column for a FIRST-rate sleazy supermarket tabloid, such as The Courier!! (Note to Courier Eds: this is your chance to score big with your readers, and put that MMS rag in its place...don't pass up an opportunity to have exclusive rights to the Sassy Soothsayer's many talents! Does Elvis, indeed, live??...*I* know the REAL truth! It's yours, Courier, for a price!)
: : As for you folk at MMS...I'll do business with you the day this country elects a 3-toed, 3-whiskered Icelandic amoeba to the highest office in the land!
: : Here's gazing at YOU, kid!
: : Mme. Claire Voyant, D/B/A Sassy Soothsayer
: : Motto: If I can't find out for you, you don't need to know!"
>>>>>>>> Hello, Sassy soothsayer!
So, you're looking for work? We'll tell you what; we liked the sassy way you rejected the illicit advances of the sleaze crowd who call themselves the "Mohicanland Morningstar Editors" ... Send us your resume, along with 5 verifiable soothsaying credits, and 3 new predictions and we'll talk. If this is a workable arrangement, perhaps a monthly column? "Mdme. Claire's Wares ... Your Future While You Wait"
": Oh well, you win some, you lose some. No big deal, really, since the infamous Rebecca of Salem has agreed to take care of our horrorscope section.
: Mohicanland Morning Star
: Motto: If we don't print it, you can't read it!"
>>>>>>>> As for you, Falling Star;
We know Rebecca of Salem to be a respectable woman of good taste. She'd never hook up with the likes of a Mohicanland Enquirer! Besides, we helped defend her when she was accused of witchcraft. She owes us. Go scope your own horrors!
Sincerely amused,
The Courier Editors
