REP. CORN DOG (R-IDAHO) The day before polls closed on Nov. 4, The Fix blog on washingtonpost.com guessed that “this could be the most dominant Republican Congress since 1929.” That held true in the House, and was compounded by a Republican sweep of 30 state legislatures³the Àrmest grip the *23 has had on statehouses since 1920. 2f course, Republicans also tooN control of the 8nited 6tates 6enate, maNing this the most unbalanced government since the doom-strucN administrations of :arren Harding, Calvin Coolidge and Herbert Hoover (all Republicans).

2ne-party rule might be shocNing to voters in some states, but it’s business as usual in Idaho, where, as one wag put it, “a corn dog could get elected if it put an ‘R’ behind its name.”

As expected as it is, the Republican hegemony in Idaho is becoming farcical. Nevermind “Chief of Schools” Sherri Ybarra— she of the plagiarized campaign materials, falsely appropriated accolades and shoddy autobiographical recall—and Lawerence “'arN 0oney” 'enney, the elections chief who seems to thinN the biggest problem with voting is voters.

As Idaho’s abysmal standard of living rivals potatoes for fame, voters’ commitment to single-party government beggars belief.

Researchers at Stanford might have an explanation for this irrational partisanship in the June 2014 paper “Fear and Loathing Across 3arty Lines New (vidence on *roup 3olarization.” :e’ll call it the “Corn 'og (ffect” “>H@ostile feelings for the opposing party are ingrained or automatic in voters’ minds,” reads the abstract, and “3artisans discriminate against opposing partisans … to a degree that exceeds discrimination based on race.” The “open animus” that partisans feel for one another goes unchecNed by “norms governing the expression of negative sentiment,” and, even worse, the so-called “partisan cues” that tell us who we disagree with have extended into everyday life from the neighborhoods in which we choose to live to who we marry (a 2009 survey found only 9 percent of couples married across party lines). :e’ll vote for any corn dog as long as that corn dog is our corn dog. Now, if you put anything other than mustard on your corn dog, I’m unfriending you on FacebooN. —Zach Hagadone

OPINION ASK BILL ABOUT IT Ebullient with Ebola BILL COPE Hi Bill. It’s me. Lureen. I mean Anonymous. From the Cope’s-Latest-Column Discussion Group, you know? And I need to talk to you so bad, it feels like when I have to go wee-wee on the freeway over to Mountain Home for my weekly acupuncture session with Mr. Fong and there’s no exit to get off and go. Isn’t that an awful feeling? I think it’s worse for women than men and we don’t even have prostates. But that isn’t what I need to talk to you about.

It’s about this Ebola disease I need to talk to you about because I just don’t know what else to do because I am so afraid of catching it. I called off the last three Cope’s-Latest-Column Discussion Group discussions because who knows who those people have been touching? Except for my friend Dottie. If she had Ebola, I think she would tell me. As for me, I don’t even want to leave the house anymore because how do I know that somebody in the Jackson store where I go to buy my scratchoffs didn’t just get back from Africa and is crawling with Ebola germs?

I called all my doctors but they say the same thing. Which is that the chances of me catching Ebola in Boise, Idaho, aren’t even as good as the chance of me being eaten by a shark in Boise, Idaho, so they were no help. Even Mr. Fong said I have nothing to worry about, which was a big surprise since he’s the one who warned me about eating that gluten stuff and wearing Áip-Áops. Even 3resident Obama and that Diseases Central place are telling me I probably won’t ever catch Ebola, and that just seems like exactly what they would tell a person before she caught Ebola.

I just don’t know who else to turn to so I’m turning to you, Bill. I realize that you are probably not an expert on Ebola, but that is what makes me think you can be trusted to give it to me straight. Is there any way to make sure I won’t get it? And will I probably get it anyway? And when I do get it, do you think I will probably die?

Would you also do one more thing for me? Would you forget I said anything about somebody named Lureen? I don’t have any idea who she is or why I said anything about being her. But I’m pretty sure that whoever she is, she would rather be Anonymous than Lureen whenever she is writing letters to newspaper people. Oh, and in case you’re worried too, I sprayed this letter with Lysol before I sent it. Except I found out I was out of Lysol so I sprayed it with Binaca instead.—Yours Truly, deÀnitely Anonymous from the Cope’s-Latest-Column Discussion Group

Dear Anonymous… or deÀnitely not Lureen, if you prefer, You did the right thing in coming to me, for I will indeed give it to you straight. Anon, I’m afraid that I must tell you it’s probable that you either already have Ebola, or that you will most certainly have it within a day or two.

That’s right, Dearie. Do not believe all those smarty-pants “experts” who have decided, based on the best scientiÀc data available, that you—along with most everyone else in this country—will not be taking part in this great tragedy unfolding before the eyes of the world.

Who do they think they are, telling us there is no signiÀcant part for Americans to play in what may be the most signiÀcant event happening this decade? How are we supposed to feel, knowing there is absolutely no need to get all hysterical, or to take drastic measures against a peril that isn’t coming? Oh sure, they’ll go on and on about how proud we should be of the role a handful of Americans are playing in Africa—how a few doctors and nurses are putting their lives on the line for all those poor Africans.

But honestly, how do we stay emotionally invested in this deal when it’s only thousands of poor Africans going through all the drama of an epidemic? The only personal involvement we’re going to get out of that is if those doctors and nurses start coming home and spreading Ebola around America like snifÁes at a daycare center. Then we’d have ourselves something to feel connected to, eh? Just like in that one movie where we think the young girl is going to die of some horrible fever, but when the sun comes up, she Áutters her eyes, smiles and says “I’m starving,” and we know she’s going to be all right? Well think about it… that scene wouldn’t nearly pack the same punch if the movie was made in some African shack and the young girl had a name like Mamabasa or Kwattiwock, would it? Hell no.

No, I’m telling you, this epic needs a U.S. face on it, or else its just another boring story about icky crap that happens to foreigners. So I suppose we have to commend those politicians and Fox News harpies who keep us aware that, no matter what those know-it-all medical people say, we have plenty of reason to panic. And you, Anon, are doing exactly the right thing. By having Ebola, I mean. Keep it up. We need people like you to get people like you to realize it truly is all about us.

And as far as you dying?… ain’t gonna happen, girl. That’s the beauty of making everything about Americans. We have that magical ability to get all distraught and stressed over something for a few weeks, but then the sun comes up, we smile… go to IHO3 for breakfast… and you know we’re going to be alright.

It’s a sign of mental health if a person is truthful, a sign of even better mental health if that person is truthful about her life. If that person is truthful about her family—that’s a level of mental health most folks can only aspire to.

That’s because families maintain stories about themselves. These stories keep families intact when everybody might otherwise run screaming for the door. Most people tell stories that begin, “I’m proud to be a member of my family, in spite of how Uncle Joe behaves at Thanksgiving, because we are… (insert valorous, tough, joyous or genetically superior here).”

The family story will contain heroes and villains, tough times and sad times. Often it will have a happy ending, although family stories that end in shame and betrayal have even stronger holds on their members. In hospice situations, for example, siblings who hate each other have a harder time pulling the plug on brain-dead parents than siblings who don’t.

But families often have a member who refuses to believe the family story at all, because she’s only a supporting actor in it, or has a lousy role in it, or both. (If you have a lousy role in your family story, it’s way better to be a supporting actor than a star.) Or maybe she’s simply better at seeing that the family story is a sticky narrative Mobius strip imprisoning whole generations in contrived beginnings, middles and ends.

Family therapists call this troublemaker the I3, or “identiÀed patient,” because other family members consider her crazy and want her put away. She keeps spoiling the fun—not that the spoiling can’t sometimes be part of the fun, as evidenced by those families who pick a brandnew IP every time the old one is packed away to an institution for the criminally insane.

I thought I’d bring up this deadly serious topic before Thanksgiving, a holiday when families can freely bulldoze their members, crushing truestories-under-construction (mental health projects) under the treads of heavy family myth. The psychiatrist R.D. Laing noted that when families eat together, ghosts sit at the table. The shades of great-great-grandparents arrive at the dinner table and start carving the meat—some of it, unlike the great-great-grandparents, still alive.

Family therapists and social workers tend to see IPs as the products of families, rather than as contrary jerks who ruin holiday meals. Therapists understand Uncle Joe will get drunk before the turkey’s out of the oven and start arguing religion with the in-laws—who came all the way from Rexburg in spite of what happened last year. But it won’t do any good to ban Uncle Joe from the table. The family will Ànd someone to take his

place, somebody who might not have Uncle Joe’s ability to avoid outright warfare with a sudden grin and the shrugging admission that we’ll all Ànd out the truth about religion when we die.

You may think I come from an alcoholic family where a rigid cover story was enforced (and we had to tell the truth parenthetically if we told it at all). Not true. My family had its cherished if unspoken rules, but making everybody act in the same play wasn’t one of them. Our Uncle Joe stayed sober until the in-laws went home.

Religious arguments were usually about who was the most agnostic.

Our family members did have to have a personal narrative that strung together the events of our lives. Our stories needed to be plausible.

They had to have an element of fair play. If they weren’t true, at least they ought to be true.

If there was a taboo in my family, it was a taboo against bullshit. (In spite of this, I became an academic. But I didn’t become a politician, so I didn’t violate the taboo completely.) My father elaborated the taboo further in a Sartre-for-Dummies moment, when I was about 12.

“It’s a tough world,” he said. “Bad things will happen, but you can avoid some of them if you make the right choices. If you can’t avoid a bad thing, don’t give it so much importance that it ruins your life. Pay your bills before they’re due.

If you take a job, do it well and get out before you get stuck. You’re on your own, kid.”

Life as a teacher has shown me that few families give their members this sort of free ticket to existence. Most families force lifetime roles on people. You’ll know what I mean if you’ve been cast as the Pretty One, the Smart One, the Cranky One, the Athletic One, the Hard Worker, the Addict or the Pretty Smart Hardworking Athletic Crank Addict.

Consider, if you can, the entirely reasonable premise that each human being starts with a deep, family-dwarÀng connection to the InÀnite, and you’ll see that families too often conspire to block that connection.

Family therapists do their best to encourage IPs to stand outside of the family story, to chart who’s cast as what, to see when being in the middle of a bunch of method actors obscures the truth and makes you crazy.

You can try this at home, kids. This Thanksgiving, try standing aside from the family story and seeing who’s playing what role, whether the drama is happy or sad, spoken or unspoken, good for you or bad for you. Check for ghosts.

Wonder if you’re an IP. You can thank me later.

I’ll understand if you’re someplace in the InÀnite, and don’t include a return address.

Rep. Holli Woodings (left) and Adam Park (right).

NEXT BOISE CITY COUNCIL MEMBER: PARK? WOODINGS? Some familiar names and faces have already surfaced in the next big competition of the Boise political landscape. Shortly after Boise Mayor Dave Bieter announced he would be accepting applications for candidates to replace outgoing Councilman David Eberle, Boise Weekly spoke to some seasoned—but young—veterans of the political scene.

It was July 2013 when BW first reported that Eberle was preparing to step down as he was finishing construction of a new home in Garden City.

“I think the young bucks are slowly getting their feet on the ground,” he said at the time.

Among those bucks is Adam Park, who last month stepped away from his post as the longtime face and voice of the Bieter administration.

“If I do become a Council member, I will join with the other Council members to find solutions to the city’s most pressing issue: transportation,” Park told BW, adding that he will also advocate to increase support for arts and culture, support early childhood education initiatives, and push for the creation of a Bown Crossing Library. “With the success of the Fire Bond, Bown Crossing should become the city’s highest priority capital project.”

But BW has heard from another highprofile candidate, Holli Woodings, who also indicated in this week’s Citizen conversation (Page 11) that she, too, will likely be submitting an application to Bieter’s inbox.

“Yes, I think I’m considering it,” the outgoing Idaho House representative told BW, fresh off her Nov. 4 defeat to Republican Rep. Lawerence Denney in the race to become Idaho’s next secretary of state.

“The more I thought about the possibility of being on the Boise Council, and the more people asked me to consider it, the more I thought I should consider it. I bring a lot of neighborhood and business perspective to the possibility.”

Bieter will be accepting applications until Friday, Nov. 21. He’ll begin interviewing candidates during December and the City Council will weigh in on the matter in January, giving its recommendation to the mayor before his announcement early in 2015.

The proposed Idaho Humane Society campus would include facilities for large animal rescues (11), wildlife rehab (8), storage (10), pet food pantry (9), a student dormitory (7) and expanded medical caregiving.

HUMANE SOCIETY PURSUES PET SHANGRI-LA But Idaho vets have concerns over plans for a new campus CINDY SIKKEMA Even in its early design phase, some rather grand plans from the Idaho Humane Society look more like a college campus that a pet care clinic.

Sprawling across 10 acres off Overland Road, the proposed complex includes walking paths along a manmade lake shade shelters speciÀc areas for puppies, small and large dogs; a wildlife rescue facility and center for large animals; a memorial garden; even a beach and amphitheater. With a price tag of $11.5 million, it’s an ambitious project and it already has some high-proÀle friends.

“The city of Boise will ante into this,” promised Boise Mayor Dave Bieter at the May 28 kickoff of a fundraising campaign for the project.

But more than a few Treasure Valley veterinarians are less than enthused about the IHS plan.

In fact, the Idaho Veterinary Medical Association has gone so far as to consider taking its discomfort to the Idaho Legislature in order to put the humane society on a shorter leash. But before

that Àght can be taken to the Statehouse, the debate is going to have to gain traction from Idaho vets beyond Boise.

“The organization represents all vets in the state,” said IVMA executive director Vicki Smith.

The IVMA ultimately met in a series of closed-door sessions on Nov. 7. But when Boise Weekly asked for comment from several vets who attended the strategy sessions, Smith sent a one-line email, insisting that the association would remain tight-lipped: “The IVMA Board of Directors unanimously voted to have no comment to any media outlets,” she wrote.

IVMA President and Northern Idaho veterinarian Dr. Robert Pierce previously indicated that his association might advocate for a measure limiting Humane Society services to only lowincome clients, effectively prohibiting full-paying clients from receiving IHS services.

The IHS, meanwhile, insists the real debate with vets is about money.

“Some practice owners feel >Ànancially@ threatened, since they view >the IHS@ as having an unfair advantage,” said IHS CEO Jeff Rosenthal.

“But these attempts to suppress nonproÀts are really attempts at restraining free trade.”

Josh Moynihan, a former assistant operations manager at IHS, pushes back against veterinarians’ attempts to limit IHS services to only lowincome patrons.

“We get all sorts of people in our community, with all sorts of money—including low income— who come in to adopt animals and I don’t think they should be turned away >from the clinic@ just because they have money,” said Moynihan. “For me, it’s a matter of choice.”

As for limiting IHS clinics to spay, neuter or vaccination procedures, Moynihan said, “That would be a disaster for the entire community.”

BIRD STREET The proposed complex would also include the adoption center (1), medical center and teaching hospital (2), additional dog housing (12), an open-air pavilion (5), education center (4), dog park (6), plus a beach, walking path, amphitheater and plenty of parking.

“A big part of what the IHS does >is help@ smaller communities who can’t help an animal because they’re swamped just trying to keep up with spay and neuter surgeries,” he said.

Moynihan described what he called a common scenario at IHS. “Let’s say a dog comes in with a broken leg and a rural clinic doesn’t have the means to Àx it.

Normally, that animal would be put down—for something as simple as a broken leg. Instead, the IHS can take that animal and perform orthopedic surgery that no one else in the community has time to do,” he said.

Rural communities such as Jerome, Wendell and Idaho Falls transfer cases such as the one described by Moynihan to the current Boise IHS facility nearly every day, and to lose that resource because of legislation “would be a tragedy,” he said.

Concerns over exactly who the Idaho Humane Society’s medical clinic should be serving—and how—surfaced soon after IHS unveiled its plans for the 10-acre complex on May 28.

To be sure, the IHS has a fair amount of public support in Boise, beginning with Mayor Bieter. But BW also learned that the community includes more than a few skeptics. But they all expressed concern about their name going public, given IHS’s considerable sway. One community member with years of experience in the animal BOI S EW EEKLY.COM

welfare industry told BW, “Just because the IHS can build the new facility doesn’t necessarily mean it should.”

BW spoke with several individuals who voiced similar concerns over spending more than $11 million on a facility they described as “over the top.” To a person, each insisted on anonymity before agreeing to publicly express their misgivings.

“As I understand it, the IHS board [of directors@ has a lot of well-connected, wealthy people, who have taken on the IHS as their personal project—which is good in a lot of ways,” said one source familiar with the animal care community, “but those same people are on other boards around town, have a lot of political connections and seem to have Tuite a bit of inÁuence within the community. So people are afraid that speaking out will have ramiÀcations.”

Rosenthal described the proposed campus as something that will “surpass the current standards of animal welfare” and serve as “a model of ‘best practices’ in animal sheltering.”

Literature for the capital fundraising campaign describes the complex as including dormitory housing for student veterinarians, a dog park, an expanded adoption center including a dogspeciÀc adoption and housing pavilion, an open air pavilion, and a veterinary medical center and teaching hospital. Future phases would add a wildlife rehabilitation center, large animal hous-

ing, pet food pantry, additional dog housing and further expansion of the medical facilities. The complex would also include ample parking and abundant landscaping, featuring both a stream and a large pond.

Rosenthal cites property constraints at IHS’s current Dorman Street facility as the catalyst for the new development. While a remodel of the current facilities is “possible,” at least according to the capital campaign website, refurbishing existing buildings would not allow for the full spectrum of upgrades the IHS believes is necessary.

One source, who said she was seriously considering donating to the IHS capital campaign, added that the proposal may have been a bit too much. Again, speaking under condition of anonymity, she added: “I love the Humane Society. I think they do a great job and I can see that [the current facility@ might need to be expanded. But when I looked at their capital campaign proposal, I could not believe how opulent it was.”

The proposed facilities go “way beyond their [stated@ needs,” she said. “I mean, $11 million for a dog park? To me that’s not an efÀcient campus.”

Yet another source with ties to the animal welfare community voiced concerns related to the proposed clinic facilities, 10 saying “the new state-of-the-art hospital [would be@ duplicating services that

Boise, and particularly those who serve Boise’s homeless community, say the city has a problem with “stuff.” And the problem is growing, literally, to the point where community caregivers have adopted a combined message: “Donate wisely.”

“It’s possible that help sometimes isn’t helpful,” said Interfaith Sanctuary Director Jayne Sorrels. “Our hearts are in the right place and everybody has great intentions.

People see a need and want to help. Many of the items are donated by a very generous community. But too often, those items are not being used and they’re accumulating.”

For the past several months, an increasing number of homeless men, women and children have spent many of their days and nights on Americana Boulevard in the shadow of the Boise Connector (BW, News, “A Bridge to Nowhere,” Aug. 6, 2014). And as the summer’s sweltering heat gave way to nearfreezing nighttime temperatures, the numbers have not subsided.

“It’s definitely growing,” Sorrels told BW. When Boise Weekly sat down with soon-toretire Boise Police Chief Mike Masterson, the city’s top cop made a point of referring to the accumulation of “stuff” among the homeless on Americana.

“My officers see Boise as a generous community where citizens give a lot of stuff to the homeless, yet we don’t provide any place for the homeless to store all of that stuff in the daytime,” said Masterson.

That issue has become more critical, according to Sorrels and other caregivers.

“We’re fortunate to live in a caring and loving community where residents are always willing to help a neighbor in need. But in this case, when people leave items under the overpass, much of the clothing and food end up being wasted,” said Corpus Christi House Mission Coordinator Marc Schlegel.

Some of those items are not the blankets or sleeping bags usually donated to the homeless.

“There are even mattresses and television sets; absolutely anything you can imagine,” said Sorrels.

While the accumulation of stuff has defined the daily gathering of homeless on Americana, Sorrels said there 10 has also been a dramatic build-up of stuff in the alley that runs behind the BOISEweekly | NOVEMBER 12–18, 2014 | 9

Interfaith Sanctuary.

“The name of that alley is Cooper Court. It’s actually an Ada County Highway District thoroughfare. And we’ve had a pretty big problem there as well,” said Sorrels. “We had to call 911 recently and a fire truck couldn’t get through.

And garbage collection trucks couldn’t get through because people and objects were in the way. It’s become a life and safety issue.”

All of this has prompted Interfaith, along with Corpus Christi House and the Boise Rescue Mission, to urge the community to donate much-needed items to the shelters rather than drop them off directly to the homeless on Americana.

“We have the space to properly store the items and then hand them out to those in need, ensuring that the community’s donations are maximized,” said Boise Rescue Mission Director Rev. Bill Roscoe.

Those needs are rather specific, depending on the shelter. For example, the Rescue Mission is in need of food—frozen turkeys, milk, coffee, ground beef, chicken, peanut butter and jelly. Interfaith is in particular need of sleeping bags, blankets, coats, jackets, gloves and toiletries. At Corpus Christi House, caregivers said they need food, such as sandwiches and breakfast items, in addition to belts and backpacks, clothes, hygiene items and coffee mugs and silverware.

“We collaborate with Corpus a lot,” said Sorrels. “Things are getting pretty cold and we’re making sure that everyone gets coats.

We’ll bring the leftovers over to Corpus, because they have a much bigger clothing room than we do. Each of us has a particular piece of the puzzle.”

Meanwhile, the Oct. 28 beating death of 37-year-old Rusty Bitton on Americana Boulevard remains a central topic of conversation among Boise’s homeless community. Boise police detectives found Bitton had died from blunt force trauma to the head. Witnesses said his death followed the violent beatings of another man and woman. Prosecutors have linked 24-year-old Scotty Turnbull to Bitton’s assault, but no formal charges have been filed in the homicide. Turnbull has been charged with the other two beatings and remains at the Ada County Jail, where he is being held on $1 million bond.

“Whenever someone in the homeless community dies for whatever reason, there’s an impact here,” Sorrels said from the Interfaith Sanctuary, a half-block from the crime scene. “But when there’s a violent crime, it stirs everything up. We tried a variety of things, including having our social workers more available in the evenings. For the first several days, people were mad, afraid, depressed, a combination of things.”

Sorrels said a fair amount of the homeless community continues to talk about the incident.

“It’s important to give people the opportunity to process all of that,” she said.

‘CLEVER LANGUAGE’

GBAD takes one more crack DW ÀQDQFH SODQ UDWKHU WKDQ JR to voters GEORGE PRENTICE Having had its knuckles rapped once already from an Idaho judge for making an end-run around the Idaho Constitution, the Greater Boise Auditorium District is preparing to reach out with its other hand in a continuing effort to fund the renovation of the Boise Centre, construction of a new ballroom/banquet facility as part of the City Center Plaza, improvements to the existing Grove Plaza, and the purchase of related furniture and equipment—totaling $38 million.

“The devil is in the details,” wrote 4th District Judge Melissa Moody in an August ruling, insisting that GBAD was trying to circumvent the Constitution by paying the Capital City Development Corporation, which in turn would Ànance the project through millions of dollars in bonds.

The judge ruled that the deal “violated the spirit and purposes of the [Idaho@ constitutional limitation against indebtedness.”

Article VIII, Subsection 3 of the Idaho Constitution reads, “no county, city, board of education, or school district, or other subdivisions of the state, shall incur any indebtedness...without the assent of two-thirds of the qualiÀed electors.”

In other words, Moody wrote, “Pay cash; otherwise, go to the people.”

It is lost on no one that the City Center Plaza construction project is well under way. GBAD directors met at the Boise Centre Nov. 5—with construction crews digging and drilling right outside the window—to take another crack at crafting what they call “a development agreement” that might win Moody’s approval.

“The purpose of this meeting is to hear public comments as to whether this board should author a resolution to authorize an amended agreement,” said GBAD Board President Jim Walker.

In spite of its price tage and importance, no one stepped forward to speak on the matter—at least not in person. Boise Guardian Editor Dave Frazier, who successfully challenged GBAD’s previous request, was out of town. But he was more than anxious to have his opinion read into the record: “It is not the duty or purpose of either [me@

or the court to help GBAD come up with some wording that will allow [GBAD@ to skirt the voters. Frankly, our duty is to preserve the rights of the citizens to vote and defend that Constitution,” wrote Frazier. “Most importantly, the election is a constitutional mandate. The Constitution doesn’t provide for a vote ‘except when clever language is used in a contract or Ànancing scheme.’”

GBAD directors sat in silence as Frazier’s objections were read into the record. Minutes later, they pushed the general public out of the room and went into executive session. For the record, as many lawyers and legal aides remained in the room as there were GBAD directors.

GBAD will need to be a lot more public about its consideration when the body reconvenes Thursday, Nov. 20, to formally vote on whether they’ll once again proceed on this legal avenue rather than take the matter to voters.

already exist in the community—and that doesn’t make sense.” Furthermore, the 9 “practice of providing [a broad range of@ services to full-paying clients is very out of the ordinary, at least as far as mid-size cities like Boise go,” he said.

Examining 10 mid-size cities with similar populations as Boise, BW found just one other shelter clinic—Pet Pal, in St. Petersburg, Fla.— that built facilities to offer the same comprehensive services to the general public as the IHS does, also without regard to income.

According to Pet Pal Executive Director Scott Daly, “We started out as a spay and neuter clinic, but expanded in 2009 and now operate as a fullservice clinic.”

Just like the IHS, Pet Pal operates as a 501(c)3 nonproÀt organization and faced considerable

push-back from local veterinarians when its fullservice clinic opened its doors.

Although it took several years, private practice veterinarians located in close proximity to the shelter clinic now “actually like us,” said Daly.

“When people are standing in their clinic saying they don’t have any money [to pay for services@, they tell them ‘try Pet Pal, see if they can help you,’” he said. “And that’s when [the attitude@ began to change.”

While Daly admits full-service shelter clinics are not the norm, he went on to say, “It’s starting to happen more and more, at least in [our area@.

The only problem is that it’s not easy.

“When we Àrst started out, it was horrible,” said Daly. “The Àrst couple of years [after expanding our clinic@ were really, really hard for us in terms of operating in the black.”

That was a concern BW heard repeatedly: How will the new IHS complex pay for itself?

“On the surface, it sounds like a good idea to build an incredible new facility. But when you talk about using $12 million to set it up, how can that not be a drain on future resources?” asked a potential donor. “It is going to cost a fortune, even just taking care of the [landscaping@, which could go to animals instead. It reminds me of using corn for ethanol—it sounded like a great idea at the time, but when you really look at the numbers, it turns out to be a terrible idea.”

Daly echoed that concern. “They’ll spend [$11.5 million@ to build it, but then they have to run it—and that’s the scary part,” he said.

“You could fail. And if you fail, you’ve failed the donors, you’ve failed the community, and you’ve failed the animals.”

The City Center Plaza construction project is well under way while GBAD continues to try to find a way to pay for its part of the complex.

HOLLI WOODINGS 7KH FDPSDLJQ HQGV WKH FDXVH FRQWLQXHV G E O R G E P RE N TI C E Holli Woodings probably won’t be reading this interview anytime soon. As %RLVH :HHNO\ was hitting the streets, she was hitting the beach in Cozumel, Mexico—along with husband Ryan, 4-year old daughter Mary and 1-year-old son Arthur. It’s a long way, literally and Àguratively, from her high-proÀle campaign for Idaho secretary of state.

Fresh off the Democratic Idaho House member’s loss to Republican state Rep. Lawerence Denney to be Idaho’s next SOS, %: sat down with Woodings to talk about lessons learned from the campaign trail and her future plans.

What event or series of events led to your decision to run for SOS? It was my experience on the House State Affairs Committee, learning that there are people in Idaho who want to limit people’s ability to vote and have no interest in increasing people’s participation in our democracy.

Did anyone ever tell you, face to face, that you shouldn’t run?

You know who told me that? Republicans I served with in the Legislature. They said, “You’re going to lose. We like working with you but you’re going to lose.”

That’s a terribly backhanded compliment.

A few of them came up to me as recent as a couple of weeks ago and said, “You’re going to lose. I would say good luck but I wouldn’t mean it.” It was nasty sometimes, just nasty. But I don’t have any regrets.

BOI S EW EEKLY.COM

Let’s return to that comment regarding Idahoans’ access to the ballot. That’s a bit stunning.

I remember it like it was yesterday. A colleague told me that we shouldn’t be doing anything to make voting easier. He expressed a view that we should go back to the day when everyone had to vote on Tuesday.

I’m guessing that you’re not going to tell me who said that.

I won’t. He knows who he is. But he’s not alone. What we’re seeing around the nation is that instead of people picking their politicians, some politicians think they can pick their voters.

It’s not right.

That message was rather prevalent in your television ads, which I must say were very well produced and included a level of sophistication that we haven’t seen in Idaho heretofore.

A couple of years ago, my very good friend, and now premier documentary Àlmmaker, Gregory Bayne said, “I you ever need a commercial, I want to do that for you.” I gave him a call and asked, “Is that offer still on the table?”

He said absolutely and he did my commercials for pennies on the dollar.

That said, putting those commercials on the air doesn’t come at a discount. How much of your own money did you put into your campaign?

We invested about $190,000. That was half of our total campaign. And our broadcast buys were about $167,000.

I’m assuming that once a politician runs a statewide campaign, win or lose, she has a pretty good idea of what it takes to win.

I just don’t think in the current political climate that a Democrat can win a statewide race here.

What should the Idaho Democratic Party be doing differently?

Work from our strengths. Look at where our numbers were. I won signiÀcantly in Ada County. What would it look like if we spent more time and resources on increasing our participation in places where we know we can win?

I’m wondering if any particular Idaho office-holders told you privately that they supported your candidacy but wouldn’t say so publicly.

Many of them. It was both encouraging and frustrating. They were saying, “I know you’re the best person for the job, but I can’t say this publicly because of allegiance to my party.” My

frustration is that they put their party above what may be best for the state.

Do you believe that Idaho is as Republican as this year’s vote indicated?

I do.

What did you learn about Lawerence Denney in the general election campaign?

He’s an amenable guy on a personal level.

He never showed anything other than generosity and good sportsmanship. I didn’t emerge victorious in the end result. But now I know who my opponent is. And I know the things we need to look out for as long as he’s serving as our secretary of state. He has a desire to limit people’s access to the polls. You may remember that he also said he wanted to use technology as an additional barrier between people and their ballots ['HQQH\ VXJJHVWHG ÀQJHUSULQW VFDQQLQJ DW WKH SROOV].

What’s the fiscal reality to that?

It’s impossible. It showed a lack of understanding for what our election really looks like.

That was something I took very seriously in the campaign.

To the degree that you want to continue with that cause?

It solidiÀed my commitment to voter rights.

I now see an opportunity to continue that work as a private nonproÀt and continue the work of getting more people engaged in a nonpartisan way.

What’s the chance of you returning to the Legislature?

At this point, I don’t think it’s very good. I like the Legislature and it would be a comfortable, easy place. But I don’t always like comfortable and easy.

I’ve never heard a Democrat describe the Idaho Legislature as comfortable or easy.

But from a pragmatic, realistic viewpoint, you know what to expect.

So, is there a slightly better chance that you might run for statewide office again?

At this point, my career will be in public service. Whether that’s in elected ofÀce or a nonproÀt, I don’t know what that’s going to be.

In the meantime, yes, you’ll be seeing me at the Statehouse defending voter rights.

There’s an opening on the Boise City Council. Might you consider that?

It’s interesting that you ask. Yes, I’m considering it it. The more I thought about the possibility about the Council, and the more people asked me to consider it, the more I thought I should consider it.

COMIC CINEMA REMIX: HOWARD THE DUCK

IDAHO SNOWMOBILE SHOW

OPERA IDAHO PRESENTS RIGOLETTO

If you haven’t seen 1986’s Howard the Duck, congratulations.

Executive produced by George Lucas, Howard the Duck is a sci-ficom (based on a Marvel comic book) about an anthropomorphic, cigar-smoking, foul fowl who is accidentally transported to Earth from Duckworld. As he’s trying to blend in (seriously?), Howard manages an all-girl punk band, falls in love with its lead singer (Lea Thompson) and thwarts an evil space villain. Local jokesters Brett Badostain, Chadwick Heft, Dylan Haas and special guest Sam Lounsbury will screen this flop, giving it the drubbing it deserves and also giving out raffle prizes. Thankfully, this is a 21-and-over event, but you’d want to leave the kids at home anyway—the duck/human sex scene could make even the bravest grownups lose their milk and quackers.

9 p.m., $5, Visual Arts Collective, 3638 Osage St., 208-4248297, visualartscollective.com.

Snowmobiles were originally built to move people and supplies to hard-to-reach places in the dead of winter. These days, they’re vehicles for snowy adventures. SnoWest Magazine is celebrating its 40th anniversary, and at this year’s Idaho Snowmobile Show, it’s hosting pop-up booths for resorts and destinations, industry and recreation experts, event coordinators and, of course, snowmobiles. It’s also giving away more than $40,000 in door prizes and free swag. There’s even a kids’ corner. Prizes include an Arctic Cat M6000, an expensespaid trip to Pine, Idaho, and a chance to star in an episode of PowerSports Adventure on the Outdoor Channel.

ARTS & CULTURE PAINTING THE BRUNEAUJARBIDGE WILDERNESS Idaho BLM’s new artist-inresidence program shows off wildlands in a new way JESSICA MURRI As BLM’s first Idaho artist-in-residence, JanyRae Seda explores the wilderness on canvas.

Earlier this year, JanyRae Seda saw a small ad calling for applicants for the Àrst-ever Idaho brought along her sketchpad and paintbrushes.

Instead, the Boise-based artSeda wouldn’t characterize herself as being ist took photo after photo and returned to her particularly outdoorsy—the last time she’d been camping was in Girl Scouts, but she Àlled out the studio in October after traveling the country doing art shows. It wasn’t until then that she put application and submitted a resume. She didn’t paint to canvas to express her experience on the think she would even hear back.

Then she found out her colorful, somewhat Seda created 22 oil paintings of the canyons, the sunsets, the river and the rapids. abstract, mosaic-like oil paintings were exactly “There’s going to be more,” she said, adding what the BLM was looking for.

She can see why people “get would need, the BLM gave her a choice: raft hooked” on whitewater: trips through Hells Candown the Bruneau River or travel by horseback yon and the Salmon River are on her to-do list. into the Owyhee Canyonlands.

Berumen looked carefully at each of Seda’s paintings, searching for the right one to represent Idaho’s wild country.

Berumen said the artist-in-residence program started nationally a few years ago, but Idaho’s BLM was inspired to get involved this year to mark the 50th anniversary of the Wilderness Act. “This is just the perfect opportunity to get people out to enjoy what’s in their backyard,” Berumen said. “It’s a way for us to work with local artists and let them translate the resources that BLM manages through images and artwork.

It’s cool to see wilderness through their eyes.”

The BLM will use its reproduction rights to print posters, but Seda is going a step further.

She’s donating one of her pieces to the BLM, which will in turn donate it to the Wilderness Society, which will auction it off to raise money for wilderness projects.

“Giving them a piece wasn’t required,” Seda said, “but I feel like that’s the only way to reimburse them for the experiences I had on that river and afterwards.”

Seda told Boise Weekly she was so inspired by her trip into the Bruneau-Jarbidge Rivers Wilderness, it was all she could think about after she returned home. She’d wake up at 4 or 5 in the morning and paint all day—seven days a week.

Seda’s time as the BLM’s Àrst Idaho artist-inresidence became more profound than she could have imagined.

“It’s been a transition point in my career,” she said. “I’m happy with every one of those 22 landscapes. I’ve never had that happen before. When I got done with the series, I started to cry because I felt like I had Ànally found what I’m supposed to do.”

BOB SCHNEIDER, NOV. 19, VAC When Bob Schneider sings, people listen. His deep, Austin, Texas-bred baritone is captivating enough that he could sing names from a phone book and someone would say, “Give that man a Grammy.”

Schneider’s voice may get people’s attention, but what keeps it is how he uses it: Schneider is a consummate storyteller.

There’s a sincerity in his lyrics and delivery, which makes each song feel as though he’s sharing something deeply important to him. Schneider is also a prolific poet and visual artist—his blog (stinkinghand.blogspot.com) and website (bobschneider.com) are full of poems and images of his multimedia artworks—and he has put out a slew of both solo and band albums. Plus, in a number of interviews, Schneider confirmed he’s ready to release what he’s calling the Demo Bible: a book with lyrics to around 1,000 songs, packaged with about 800 songs on a USB drive.

If being an artist means you always need to be creating, then Schneider is a true artist—and if he ever starts doling out advice, it will be easy to listen.

FOOD BRIDGING CONTINENTS Donuts downtown? Yes, please.

GURU DONUTS GEARS UP FOR GRAND OPENING In a match made in Homer Simpson’s heaven, Guru Donuts and Boise Fry Company announced last spring that they would join fried forces and move into the former Le Cafe de Paris space at 204 N. Capitol Blvd.

But all’s been relatively quiet on the donut, burger and beer front ever since. Until now.

Guru Donuts co-owner Angel Moran confirmed that Guru is now in the hiring process and hopes to open its new permanent storefront in approximately four weeks.

“It’s the same plan, it just was delayed quite a bit because that building is quite old and had a lot going on behind the scenes,” said Moran. “So Boise Fry Co. is the actual tenant and they’re taking that whole space that Cafe de Paris had, so the northwest corner of the Adelmann [Building] and that includes the bakery.”

Guru Donuts will occupy Le Cafe’s former bakery retail space on the left side of the building, while Boise Fry Co.’s ordering counter and kitchen will take over the right side.

“In the center there’s going to be an accordion window and that will open up kind of an indoor/outdoor space and that will be seating for both Guru and Boise Fry,” said Moran. “We’ll be there in the morning; they’ll be there in the afternoon. We may overlap a little bit during their slower time.”

In addition to sharing seating, the two businesses will also share a kitchen in the former Gaston’s Bakery space located in the basement of the building.

“That’s going to be our daily kitchen but they only need it from time to time when they’re making all their buns and all the sauces for their stores. … So we can be in there at midnight till 6 a.m. to make donuts,” said Moran.

Guru’s new location will also offer espresso drinks featuring Maps coffee, a new line from Grace Organics out of Hailey.

“In between the Capitol and City Hall, to have coffee available I think is smart,” said Moran. “But that’s definitely going to be secondary; we definitely want to make sure the focus is on the donuts.”

Stay tuned for Guru and Boise Fry Co.’s official grand opening date. For more info on Guru Donuts, visit gurudonuts.com.

HAR R IS ON B ER RY

FOOD NEWS THIS APOCALYPSE IS FOR YOU 10 Barrel Sells to Anheuser-Busch JESSICA MURRI When 10 Barrel Brewing Company opened the doors to its cavernous brewpub at 830 W. Bannock St. last year, Boiseans were quick to embrace the addition to the Treasure Valley’s burgeoning beer scene. So much so that the Bend, Ore.-based company was voted Best Local Brewpub in the 2013 Best of Boise by such a wide margin that we had to make an exception to our local-only stipulation for winners.

Boise beer lovers weren’t the only ones attracted to 10 Barrel. A year and a half after opening its Boise brewpub in April 2013, the brewery—with locations in Bend and Portland, Ore.—has been acquired by beer titan AnheuserBusch. The deal, announced Nov. 5, has sent shock waves through the Northwest craft beer industry. Not all the commentary has been kind.

“When are we going to see shitty 10 Barrel Brewing Company Superbowl commercials?

Can’t wait to see you in NASCAR too,” wrote one miffed beer lover on the 10 Barrel Brewing Facebook page. Others chimed in with “bummer,” “so sad,” “lame” and, of course, “sell out.”

Talking to the Herald and News in Bend, former Deschutes Brewery Brewmaster Larry Sidor said the deal “hasn’t really sunk in yet. It feels like one of our family members has died.”

Plenty of local 10 Barrel fans pledged their continued support, however.

“That is the idea of business,” posted one commenter. “I just hope you keep it real, I still love the food and beer and will still support you.”

In a video announcing the sale, brewery founders Chris and Jeremy Cox and Garrett Wales assured craft beer drinkers that nothing would change following the acquisition, other than giving 10 Barrel the Ànancial backing to handle its rapid expansion.

While the news came as a surprise—even to some 10 Barrel employees, one of whom told Boise Weekly that the staff was told of the acquisition about Àve minutes before it went public—Wales told BW that the deal had been in the works for the past six months.

“We were already aligned with A-B and their distribution network,” Wales said. “They were familiar with our brand and watched our growth.

It was getting tough to manage from the business BOI S EW EEKLY.COM

Under new management.

perspective for us.”

Wales added that he’s not expecting to see 10 Barrel beer in every grocery store across America, nor does the brewery plan to expand beyond its Northwest “home turf ” in the near future.

Sheila Francis, president of Idaho Brewers United and marketing director for Payette Brewing Company, came to 10 Barrel’s defense against attacks from the hard-core “drink local” crowd.

She said the sale to Anheuser-Busch doesn’t signal the end of the craft beer movement.

“The local movement is great, but when anything like this happens, I think people forget that 10 Barrel still pays local taxes. They still inÁuence the local economy, they’re still employing people on the local level and buying from local producers,” she said. “While the ultimate proÀts are not necessarily staying here, they still have a positive impact.”

Francis pointed out that A-B has been snapping up microbreweries across the country, including Chicago-based Goose Island Beer Company in 2011 and New York-based Blue Point Brewing Company this past February.

The Ànancial details of the 10 Barrel acquisition were not released, but A-B’s previous deals have been high-dollar: Goose Island, which at the time of the sale was producing 127,000 barrels a year, went for $38.8 million; Blue Point, whose 60,000-barrel capacity is similar to 10 Barrel’s 40,000 barrels, sold for between $18 million-$24 million, according to sources.

“They’ve made some changes, but generally, their core brands stay the same,” Francis said of A-B’s purchases. “[10 Barrel’s] beer isn’t going to be watered down, they’re not going to be made with hops extracts. Goose Island’s beer is still really enviable. A-B isn’t going to touch that.”

She admitted that 10 Barrel is going to lose some customers right off the bat—people who refuse to drink any Anheuser-Busch product.

“Craft beer has a really great story behind

it, but I think what sometimes gets lost is that they’re still businesses and they still have to make business decisions,” Francis said. “No one really complains that much when a start-up gets bought out by Google. I think it’s because of the story aspect. … I think people are worried, and rightfully so, that they’ll lose that personal touch and that personal connection with the brewery.”

Wales said 10 Barrel started life as a bar, but he and his partners—brothers Chris and Jeremy Cox—dreamed of trading it for a brewery. That happened in 2007.

“We thought it would be really fun to start a brewery and sell our beer to our buddies and bars downtown and see what happened,” Wales said.

The owners never aspired to sell the company to an industry giant like A-B, which itself was purchased by Belgian Àrm InBev for more than $50 billion in 2008, making it the largest brewer in the world with 25 percent global market share.

“When we started this, it was literally just us three for two years. We had one employee,” Wales said. “But we’ve grown organically ... We never dreamed of having 300-plus employees and having multiple locations and being in three states and growing. To be honest, it started taking some of the fun out of it for us. We’re getting into areas that we’re not experts at, we were very fortunate to be able to partner with a company that is, in all honesty, the best that it gets when it comes to that side of the business.”

Wales said among the perks of being an A-B subsidiary are access to Elk Mountain, the largest hops farm in the country—a few miles north of Bonners Ferry—and having some help managing the business side of things.

While he has heard grumbling from some in the craft beer community, the news of the sale didn’t seem to have much impact on Boise’s downtown location. Only days after the announcement, the restaurant was still packed for lunch, with more customers waiting to pile in.

When I saw the full-page ad in the Nov. 2 New York Times Sunday Magazine, I nearly spilled my Irish coffee. They had me at the headline: “Whiskey has never been cooler.”

The coolness is both metaphorical and literal with the Rabbit Freezable Whiskey Glasses from Metrokane, the folks who brought us the renowned Rabbit Corkscrew and the Houdini Wine Rack.

“With the Rabbit Whiskey Glasses, dilution becomes a thing of the past,” promises the ad. Each glass has two walls, $24.95, Macy’s, and designers have suspended a winestuff.com, proprietary chilling liquid between metrokane.com them, so the entire glass freezes colder than ice after a short time in the freezer. The glass then keeps drinks chilled for up to two hours—no ice required. Plus, a silicone base protects your hand from the cold glass and your drink from the heat of your hand.

We went to amazon.com and found the Rabbit Freezable Whiskey Glasses to be “out of stock,” but we learned they’re also available at Macy’s, Bloomingdales and winestuff.com. A set of two retails for $24.95.

So, if you’re reading this, Santa, if you bring me the Rabbit Freezable Whiskey Glasses, which now top this year’s wish list, I’ll have a cold one ready for you next Christmas.

MUSICAL INSTRUC.

FREE WILL ASTROLOGY ARIES (March 21-April 19): We all have addictive and obsessive tendencies. They are fundamental to being human. So the challenge is not to eliminate them—that’s not possible—but rather to harness them. If you hope to keep them from dragging you down, you must work hard to channel them into activities that enhance your life. How are you doing on this score, Aries? Are you chronically dependent on drugs, gambling, sugar or chaotic relationships? Or are you, instead, hooked on the courage you summon when you face your fears and the willpower you invoke as you free yourself from your limitations? Now is an excellent time to upgrade your addictive and obsessive tendencies.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20): Our planet’s most abundant mineral is called bridgmanite.

It’s an amalgam of iron, magnesium, silicon and oxygen. Until recently, no one had actually seen it because it lies so deep underground it can’t be reached by digging tools. Scientists have only known about it from studying how earthquake waves move through it. That changed in the past few years, when two mineralogists found bridgmanite in an ancient meteorite. They were able to analyze the nuances of this basic mineral for the first time. I predict a comparable development for you, Taurus.

In the coming months, you will become more familiar with a

core part of you that has always been a mystery. The revelations may occur with the help of an influence that resembles a meteorite.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20): Some conspiracy theorists are paranoid that aliens or government agencies use radio waves to try to control their minds.

They wear tin foil hats to protect themselves from the evil transmissions. But a recent study shows that this protective head gear has an effect that’s opposite to what it’s supposed to.

In fact, it actually amplifies the intensity of radio frequencies, making it even more likely that mind-control signals would work their dastardly magic. This problem probably does not apply to you, but I suspect you are suffering from a comparable glitch. An approach you’re pursuing or an attitude you’re cultivating is having an impact contrary to what you imagine. Now is an excellent time to make adjustments.

CANCER (June 21-July 22): I can’t remember the last time you’ve had as much artistic freedom as you have now. It’s as if life has given you a slew of wild cards and X-factors to play with. You don’t have to answer to the past as much as you usually do. You are less beholden to the demands of duty and the constraints of karma. Here’s the best perk: You have been authorized by both the higher powers and lower powers of the cosmos

30 | NOVEMBER 12–18, 2014 | BOISEweekly

to fall in love. With whom? With what? Everyone! Everything!

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): For much of its history, the United States claimed ownership of the ocean within three miles of its coasts. That changed in 1988, when the federal government declared that hereafter it would have sovereignty over the ocean as far as 12 miles from land. With that action, American territory increased dramatically.

I invite you to consider a comparable expansion in the coming months, Leo. Seize more space.

Seek further privileges. Ask for a bigger piece of everything.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Poland’s most renowned ghost hunter is frustrated. Having invested a fortune in spectral detection equipment, Piotr Shalkevitz finds that there are fewer and fewer spooks to investigate as the years go by. I’m not qualified to speak about whether the whole world is experiencing a decline in the ghost population.

But I’m confident that this is exactly what is happening for you Virgos. Recently, the haunted elements of your life have begun to dissipate. And in the next eight months, I expect that you will be freed from most, maybe all, of the ghosts and pesky demons that attached themselves to you once upon a time.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): “To improve is to change, so to be perfect is to have changed

often.” Winston Churchill said that, and now I’m passing it along to you—with one caveat. I don’t expect you to be perfect, and never will. To shoot for perfection is risky. It may set up unrealistic expectations that lead to bad mental hygiene. It tempts you to avoid messy experiences, some of which might be essential to your growth. So I will offer a revised version of Churchill’s maxim for your use: If you want to improve, you must change. If you want to keep improving, you must change often. And the coming months will be prime time for you to keep improving and improving and improving.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): “Sex is like pizza,” said comedian Mel Brooks. “Even when it’s bad, it’s still pretty good.” That’s a generalization, of course. I’m sure you can think of times in your past when mediocre pizza and mediocre sex were just plain mediocre. But work with me on the overarching principle, Scorpio: Some of the finer things in life just can’t be spoiled. They are always at least moderately pleasurable and interesting and lucky—and usually more than just moderately so. According to my reading of the astrological omens, your immediate future will be filled to the brim with these finer things.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Ancient people knew about Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter and Saturn because all of those

planets are visible to the naked eye. From the second millennium B.C. until the late 20th century, only three additional planets were found: Uranus, Neptune and Pluto. (Pluto was later reclassified as a dwarf planet, however.) Then in 1992, astronomers began to locate planets orbiting other stars. On one spectacular day in February 2014, NASA announced it had identified 715 new planets.

I foresee a similar uptick for you in the next seven months, Sagittarius. Your rate of discoveries is about to zoom.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): When Evan Lattimer’s 92-yearold father died in 2007, she inherited his large collection of odd relics. It included a cigar smoked by W. C. Fields, Greta Garbo’s driver’s license, Abraham Lincoln’s shaving mirror, a bearskin coat owned

by Gen. George Custer and Napoleon Bonaparte’s penis.

Many items turned out to be quite valuable to collectors.

One eager bidder offered to buy the famous genitalia for $100,000. I suspect that in the coming months, you will experience events that have some resemblances to this story. For example, the legacy you receive may not be what you expected, but could turn out to be more useful than you imagined.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Here’s your assignment: Get more organized and purposeful

about having fun. Think harder about what makes you feel good, and plan more aggressively to bring those feel-good experiences into your life. In offering these prescriptions, I’m not advocating irresponsible hedonism. Not at all. In my view, you will become a better servant of those you care about by boosting your commitment to pleasure. You will carry out your duties with more aplomb and effectiveness. Raising your joy quotient is actually a formula for becoming a better human being.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): The Appalachian Mountains span 1,500 miles from Newfoundland to Alabama. They are the seventh longest range in the world, yet they have shrunk over the eons. Their average height is 3,000 feet, but when they were young they were probably twice that high. What happened?

There has been constant erosion caused by rivers, glaciers, wind, tree roots, lichens and oxidation. Rain and condensation have also played a role because when water freezes, it expands, creating a wedging force. I propose that we make what has happened to the Appalachians a symbol of what’s possible for you in the next eight months, Pisces. Through steady, small actions, you can significantly grind down a mountainous obstacle.
