Your compete MICRO*scope for today
You are the type of person who keeps a detailed record of your wondrous shopping experiences in a daily journal. Family and friends always look to you to brighten their days with your cheery smile. Today, you are likely to spend a great deal of time at a garage sale wanting to buy either a weathervane with a cow on top or a box of multi-colored, plastic paper clips. Be on the lookout for celebrities who speak directly to you through your television. You should consider shopping at stores or businesses beginning with the letter V, but do not buy any products with a serial number or product code containing the number 052622. Your preferred shopping venue is shopping malls. Your special symbol is the asterisk (*).

A Tycoon Of The MUTUAL FUNDSWinston Smythe Kennsington III -- our second-estate financial maestro -- has given me a hot, and I mean REALLY HOT, investment tip. Waldo Industries, the parent company of Waldo's TexMex Taco World, is making plans to expand its franchises. Marketing studies show that people are ripe and ready for Waldo's Super Deluxe TexMex Gargantuan Tacos beyond the confines of Shady Valley. For a minimal investment, I can grab a share of this money-making opportunity. A minimal investment to our Ivy-League friend Winnie is $500,000. Unfortunately my bank account, including recent deposits of loose change found on our pedestrian trek, is a few zeros short. Is this another sure-fire financial opportunity that will pass me by?
