Your friends are your joy and inspiration. Together you accomplish the impossible, and it's fun. Set an agenda in February, starting with an incomplete project. By April you know what you need to learn, so learning it is easy. The rules must be applied in May to make sure you're grounded in reality. In June, let fantasy take control. With the one you love, dreams can come true. You're inspired in July, and you're on the right path. August is a good time to double-check that all systems are functioning properly. Contact a foreigner for good advice in September. You and your teammates should push for completion in December. The impossible should a while, but it's accomplished by January.
HOROSCOPES
this is a great day to travel, start a new class, hang out with friends, fall in love, or all of the above. It's not a good day to work. You'll be more in the mood for that over the weekend. Better yet, try to get the rest of the week and the weekend off. It can't hurt to ask.
Today's Birthday (Feb.15).
Aries (March 21-April 19) — Today is an 8.
Taurus (April 20-May 20) — Today is a 5.
Taurus (April 20-May 20) — Today is a 5.
It’s a pretty good day to ask for a raise, or to find out whether you qualify for additional benefits. You’re a pretty shrewd investor, so maybe you could get these rewards yourself. It’s OK to do that.
Gemini (May 21-June 21) — Today is an 8.
You're lucky today, although others may appear to be in control. Actually, you're letting them do that. They're providing what you need, you're steering and they're doing all the work. That's how it should be.
Cancer (June 22-July 22) — Today is a 6.
You're doing the work but never have a penny to spare. That's because you keep shoving every extra penny into your savings account. There's nothing nicer than a big fat IRA, is there? If you don't have one yet, you soon will.
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22) — Today is a 9.
You're in love, and you don't care who knows it.
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22] — Today is a 9.
You're ready to make a commitment, and it's a great day for that — but only if you've known this person for more than two weeks.
Virao (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) — Today is a 4.
Things should finally be running smoothly at work. But you're exhausted, so you should think about spending time at home. Ask for some time off.
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) — Today is a 10
You're a great teacher, and several others are starting to realize this. Graciously accept their compliments. You don't have to demand respect; you've earned it.
Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) — Today is a 5.
You know that really neat thing you've wanted but couldn't afford? Count your pennies again — you can make it happen. It won't be easy, but it will be worth the effort. Go buy it today!
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) — Today is a 9.
You're so cute today, you're sure to draw a lot of attention. You're witty and have a great sense of humor.
Where does this stuff come from, anyway? Make the most of it.
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) — Today is a 6.
A household project you've been planning could finally come to fruition, whether it's buying living-room furniture or buying a new house. It may require work, but you're willing to do what it takes to get what you want.
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) — Today is an 8.
You're pretty smart, but you don't have to figure everything out by yourself. Get your friends to help, and a project will begin to look like fun.
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20) — Today is a 6.

Fill Friday night with Kansas fun

I just recently celebrated my birthday, and as a result, I got a lot of phone calls from friends, family and 'Judy from Discover offering a special credit card with no annual fees, low fixed
APR and up to 1% cash back bonus on all purchases." It was really nice of her to remember my birthday.
Still, some of my birthday well-wishers hadn't called me since I moved here from Colorado. As a result, they were still curious about my new school and invariably asked me the following questions: "Do you like it there?" "What's Kansas like?" "Do they have TVs yet?" "Does everyone just eat corn?" and "Are all your classes in one big cabin?"
I. of course,
explained to them KU
was really not much

different than their school and Lawrence had actually come a long way since "Little House on the Prairie."
I added they were probably just confusing us with K-State and when I described Aggieville, they seemed satisfied with their stereotype.
Nonetheless, I was still hounded with the question, "What do people at KU do for fun, besides hayrides and square-dancing?"
As a result, I came up with this list, partly to answer the critics of our town and state, and partly
to offer suggestions to fellow students.
Top Ten Things to do in Lawrence on a Friday Night:
10. Sit around and make fun of those poor saps in boring states like Montana or Idaho who have nothing to do.
9. Put flaming bags of crap on people's doorsteps. But don't
8. Go to das Jazzhaus for some überkaraoke.
doorsteps. But don't light them on fire. And instead of people's doorsteps, Hashinger's elevator. Classic
7. Make a drinking game out of Friday night TV shows like Nash Bridges: Drink until the shows seem witty and entertaining.
6. Go to Jack Flanigan's, but in order to avoid trouble at the door, leave "gang related" apparel at home.
5. Knock back 0-5 drinks.
4. Play "Magic the Gathering," even though the gathering never has a keg.
3. Finally get that joke you read in the Top Ten list the day before, only to realize it's still not funny.
2. Go to a bar, though I'm not sure I would recommend it. I went to this one last Tuesday night and I kept getting shot down by all the girls like they weren't even interested.
1. Sit at home, alone and depressed, with nothing but a bottle of Jack and your "Top" noun" lists to keep you company.
