Kathy Griffin website Why is Kathy Griffin mentioned on my blog? Because I LOVE HER. For someone with Mercury in Scorpio she's outrageously out spoken. Why? Mercury squared Uranus.

http://www.astrotheme.fr/en/portraits/zjwM6q2T332g.htm Kathy GRIFFIN: astrology and birth chart. Scroll down and when you see the birth chart run your cursor over the astrological symbols (aka glyphs) you can see the aspects (aka relationships between that planet and another planet in the chart) change as you move the cursor. If you click on the glyph a note will drop down with the aspects to that planet spelled out, along with a general description of that planet. Handy that, if you're curious about astrology.

http://www.astrotheme.fr/en/portraits/5SsS6Qv2kdZ9.htm Gary DOURDAN's natal chart. With the problems that Gary has had recently I had to check his chart. Saturn in Pisces at 23 degrees, currently transiting Saturn in Virgo is at 1 degree, so it's not opposing, yet. But the next couple of years it's going to be difficult for Gary, and oddly enough John McCain, who also has Saturn in Pisces. For old John that opposition will happen exactly two weeks after the November elections. Scary.

But about Gary, he has a bunch of squares to his Saturn. So problems with authority will be a theme of his life. I read that he's "opted out" to renew his contract for future seasons with "CSI". Could it be that he's got problems with the authority figures with the show?

Ryan Seacrest got more grit than one would think, check out all the Capricorn in his chart and that Venus in Capricorn opposed Saturn in Cancer. Could that be why he's unattached? Just some idle thoughts during the watching of American Idol. Yes I watch, but I don't vote.

Whether you agree or disagree with what I write remember there's countries where there is no internet freedom. Check out Reporters without Borders. The internet black holds represented on the picture below show which countries don't allow free use of the internet for its citizens.  Other people have talked about internet black holes, where packets fall into bit buckets and we don't get an email. That's not what I'm talking about here. I'm talking about appreciating our basic freedom of speech.

 My 32 year old son, Bushyaib, said tonight that he feels "lucky". "In what way?" I asked. "I have a roof over my head, food, some money in my pocket." he begins to count his blessings. "People you love and who love you back." I added. Then I thought about mentioning this on my blog and I suddenly realized how much I appreciate the liberty of having freedom of speech. Being able to own a website and natter to my heart's content is something billions of people are not able to do around the world.  Dig it, I'm half Japanese, which makes me Asian-American. I'm chunked that the summer Olympics are being held in China. I'm angry that the hunger for copper to build China's Olympic "bird's nest" stadium has caused people in Australia discomforted because of large scale theft of copper used in their infrastructure is being shipped off to China. There's 121 democratic countries in the world. Why choose China?
