Carousel -- Week Ending 6th February 2009
[ 5 February 2009 ]
Today’s Carousel is tiny but lively, with plenty of astrology mania & a bit of your average, run-of-the-mill madness. Hope you enjoy!
Friskyscopes — aka love & sex horoscopes — every week at The Frisky.
I just found out about afformations. & I am going to write some more about them soon, because I’m sure they will be useful to plenty of us!
I found this by complete chance: Intoxicated Zodiac Blog is a guide to cocktails by star sign! I love it! I especially like the references to Virgos liking lavender drinks — in my opinion, a lavender martini can’t be beat! I like this too…
“i could not believe how many top level virgo fashionistas there were… more than ANY OTHER SIGN! (Stephen meisel, Tom ford, Claudia Schiffer, Stella McCartney, Karl Lagerfeld, Michael kors, Anna sui, Hugo boss). these hypercritical angels are actually workaholic nazis… they possess a clarity of vision that can’t be tainted, a determination of will that can’t be swayed, and a heart of loving steel that can’t easily be won.”
Aw, bless.
DailyOM does horoscopes too.
Spooky Medium from Mystic Medusa.
Tell me what you believe now. What did you get? Mine says, “Right now I believe that you should encourage others.”
Shop Therapy is holding a contest where you could win an outfit from ModCloth, & I’m judging! Go forth & enter!
Video horoscopes for 2009 from Diana Garland. I like her!
Cary Tennis nails it. Again.
“This takes years before you go, yeah, OK, I am strangely uncool but so are you so fuck you we can be friends or not I don’t give a rat’s ass.”
Fun things for hoop dance maniacs! Hoop Convergence 2009 happens May 8th through 11th in North Carolina! Sounds good to me! Ditto Hooping University!

Gala Gala Gala,
What happened to the High school Calendar competition? Did we ever find out the winners?
Oh my! I love the Intoxicated Zodiac Blog!!!
Lola — I’m pickin’ em as we speak, & will email the winners!
So here’s what Tell Me What You Believe Now gave me…
“Right now I believe
BLACK PEOPLE BLACK PEOPLE BLACK PEOPLE BLACK PEOPLE BLACK PEOPLE BLACK PEOPLE BLACK PEOPLE BLACK PEOPLE BLACK PEOPLE BLACK PEOPLE BLACK PEOPLE BLACK PEOPLE BLACK PEOPLE BLACK PEOPLE BLACK PEOPLE BLACK PEOPLE BLACK PEOPLE BLACK PEOPLE BLACK PEOPLE BLACK PEOPLE.”
Rather odd one, I’d have to say!
so, i got “right now i believe i’m fucked up.”
:D
and then i got, “right now i believe that sipping tea and listening to vanilla ice will be my heaven.”
this thing is fun!
Anika — Hahahahahaha what?! That’s so funny. I loved my first one & then I kept clicking & everything else was totally surreal & weird!
I got:
Right now I believe
“that Americans need to start taking an active interest in their country instead of being apathetic, passive followers.”
The perfect wake up call!
“Right now I believe that everyone is connected”
I totally do believe that…
“Right now I believe flying buffalo salesman DAN HAS GOT WINNETS.”
I’m now addicted to this site.
I got:
“Right now I believe. I believe..I am bored but I can’t be sure.”
Not as fun as the others. :P
“Right now I believe that love does exist.”
Aww.
I got: Right now I believe “there are 2 types of people in the world. Those that believe in signs, and those that don’t. So the question is, are you the kind of person who sees signs, miracles? Or do people just get lucky? Is it possible that there are no coincidences?”
My answer: I believe in signs!
I love all the astrology this week! Amazing! Diana Garland was right on point for my horoscope. (Pisces)
Right now I believe:
It will all be okay in the end… If it’s not, it’s not the end.
so true!
Gala, I started hooping.
Well I bought a hoop..
I coulc never hoop and then I did it for like… 12 seconds. Most exciting thing ever.
=D
Makes me happpy.
“Right now I believe that I am getting rat poon tonight.”
:/
Love the links, especially the astrology stuff!
Just created my wish list in hopes of a Valentine’s day miracle. :) What a fun contest. It looks like you aren’t going to have an easy time picking just one winner either.
Great links as usual.
...Right now I believe in date rape.
uh huh. o.o;
Right now I believe…
I got something extremely geeky. Too geeky to be true. It regards hackers, Open Source Software and hate for Microsoft.
Right now I believe
my computer must be a hackers paradise. there are many viruses and trojans on my computer. in other words security on this computer has been severely compromised. a hacker probably could easily access all the files on this computer. i need to do a fresh vista install this holiday. probably right after Christmas. yes i know vista sucks, but Microsoft is a monopoly and i am forced to use there software in many situations. the day of wide spread open software is coming. and on that day people will leave Microsoft in droves. they will no longer be chained and a slave to their software. we all will be free to chose the best software. and the best software is usually never from Microsoft.
See?
whoah … just clicked on the link for that what do you believe site – some reeeeally homophobic racist stuff up there (which im sure you werent aware of – your stuff is gold by the way) just thought I’d let you know cause it doesn’t suit your fabulous aesthetic.
peace xx
Right now I believe in shooting stars.
I like that one…
MICK TWEAK — Ah, sometimes that’s what happens when you grant people absolute anonymity. Still an interesting experiment & website!
woah, some very weird beliefs there peeps!
I got ‘right now i believe that i want you all to die in a fire’..
kinda amusing considering i just had an argument with my boyf and my son is driving me crazy with back chatting and obnoxiousness…
but I would never want anyone to die in a fire!
I got “Right now I believe that I normally like orange, but this shade makes me think of murder. So you should hope I’m not your neighbor or something”
Followed by “right now I believe in the cosmic teapot” and “right now I believe you have some type of porn open in a different tab or window”
I love it! (the link that is, the only porn I have open right now is net-a-porter.com!)
Sad about the lame stuff on that site, but I got a winner!
“Right now I believe that I want to drive and just keep driving.” Sad & sweet & lovely.

Right now I believe “in cumming in a girls mouth”.
Hahaha, MY GOD.
Some of these are priceless(:.
“Right now I believe
niiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiccccccceeeeeeeee “

This is a good website for figuring out where the planets were when you were born.
“Right now I believe in make believe”
“Right now I believe in Chaz Tenenbaum.”

Great links, Gala :) Thank-you, and have an awesome weekend!
P.S. ‘‘Right now I believe only poor people believe money won’t make them happy.’‘ (Not sure if I agree with this one, but interesting all the same!)
