GRAY SKITTERY
Your compete MICRO*scope for today
You are the type of person who has trouble making decisions and choosing from among the seemingly infinite number of options that you perpetually face. Family and friends often add sleeping pills, muscle relaxants, and other similar medications to your food and drink in hopeless attempt to reduce your activity level somewhere near normal. Today, you are likely to spend a great deal of time searching for rummage sales trying to buy either a set of luggage without wheels or a how-to book on wine tasting. Be on the lookout for telephone calls from former employers. You should consider shopping at stores or businesses beginning with the letter M, but do not buy any products with a serial number or product code containing the number 335752. Your preferred shopping venue is mail order catalogs. Your special symbol is the question mark (?).

You are in a constant struggle between the forces of demand and supply, production and consumption, good and evil... and you're losing the battle. You have trouble making decisions and choosing from among the seemingly infinite number of options that you perpetually face. Your shopping experiences are inevitably confusing.
This isn't me! What am I?

My Sales Pitch On ADVERTISINGOur extended sojourn through the winding complexities of the economy has worn the soles from my jogging shoes. For the best bargain on a new pair, let's consult those annoying flyers stuffed into the Sunday newspaper. We're in luck. The Mega-Mart Discount Warehouse Super Center is having their monthly "once in a lifetime" sale on jogging shoes. Without this Mega-Mart Discount Warehouse Super Center advertising supplement, I might have unknowingly paid a higher price for my brand new Fleet Feet Footwear jogging shoes. Isn't advertising wonderful?
