Johnny Carson's desk to be sold
DALLAS —The rosewood desk Johnny Carson sat behind for countless celebrity interviews is among several "Tonight Show" items headed for the auction block.
"When giant women took over the earth, no one considered the sheep's hardships."
"If the microphone was his pen and sword, the desk was his field of battle," said Doug Norwine, director of Heritage Galleries & Auctioneers' music and entertainment memorabilia. "This is a desk with a story"
Among the unique features of the gold-colored, inlaid top desk are a hidden, sliding ashtray holder Carson used to conceal his lit cigarettes, a trash bin and a lining of orange shag carpet with a burn mark from the time Carson set fire to his index cards after his jokes kept tanking.

Brad, Jen 'didn't have a chance'
NEWYORK — Jennifer Aniston and Brad Pitt didn't have a chance from the get-go, says John Gray, best-selling author of "Men Are From Mars, Women Are From Venus." The couple separated in January after 4 1/2 years of marriage. Aniston filed for divorce in March, citing irreconcilable differences.

"Aniston and Pitt had very little chance of lasting." Gray told The Associated Press. "They started out like the prom king and queen. He was the sexiest man and she the sexiest woman. That kind of pressure makes it hard to make a relationship last."

If you are single, you might want to keep a new friendship low-key. It will take you at least a year to get to know this person. The unpredictable runs riot in your personal life. If you are attached, both you and your sweetie need weekends alone together. Sharing and closeness will build as a result. VIRGO makes a good healer for you.
