The Show Goes On:

Jewelry Maker Takes on Fall Art Event By Jennifer Jackson

JJackson.Citizen@gmail.com

Kate Baer has been showing her silver jewelry, Kate Baer Fossils, at arts and crafts shows for 12 years. Two weeks ago, she was at War Eagle Craft Fair. The week before, she had a booth at the Pink Palace Crafts Fair in Memphis. But Baer had never thought about organizing a show when last year, at the end of the Fall Art Fair in Eureka, organizers announced that ESSA — Eureka Springs School of the Arts — was no longer going to put it on. “I said, “I’ll do it!” Baer recalled. “It was one of those random, impulsive things.” Since then, Baer has changed the name from Fall Art Fair to the Eureka Springs Art Bazaar. But the show is still on the Saturday after Thanksgiving, and still features fine art, pottery, jewelry, woodcraft and textiles by local and regional artists. Admission is by a donation of two food items or $3 to the Flint Street Food Bank. While the show may not make money for the organizer, Baer said, she’s glad she stepped up to keep it going. “I just wanted to keep it happening,” she said. “It’s been good for me and good for a lot of artists.” The event was started by Steve Schmidt, a Eureka artist who ran it for several years, then turned it over to Peggy Hill. Hill ran it for three years, she said, then ESSA took it on. For this year’s show, on Nov. 29, Zeek Taylor and Les Brandt are returning, as are

Valerie Damon, Mary Springer, Eleanor Lux and Jasmine Stanley. Nora Patterson Viola, whose sweater art was voted the People’s Choice last year, will have a booth, and Baer will have her clothing designs as well as her fossil jewelry. A member of Fayetteville Underground, an artist cooperative, Baer has also recruited people she knows that are new to the show. They include Peter Lippincott of Fort Smith, an Arkansas Living Treasure who makes traditional stoneware pottery in his MudPuppy studio; Lisa Crews of Lead Hill, who incorporates historic styles into her pottery, and Susie Siegele and Mike Haley, who make porcelain pottery on their Huntsville farm. “I’m trying to promote the Small Business Saturday aspect of it,” she said, referring to a national campaign supporting non big-box retailers. “There is no smaller business than the independent artist.” Baer and her family live off the grid on three and a half acres outside of Ponca, surrounded by national forest near the Buffalo River. Raised on the West Coast, Baer came to Arkansas via Sitka, Alaska, where she majored in natural resource management and outdoor recreation at Sheldon Jackson College. She met Dave Baer, a mental health worker from San Francisco, in Sitka in 1998. They moved to Arkansas after visiting friends in the Missouri Ozarks. “We’ve been here almost 14 years,” she said.

Baer started making silver jewelry 12 years ago after an ‘aha’ moment when her older children were 2 and 4. At the time, she was glass blowing, an art not compatible with raising small children. When they kept bringing her rocks with fossils they found in the yard, she took it as a sign. She uses the fossils to make patterns in the small pendants she creates from recycled silver. “It’s all that embodied energy,” Baer said of the imprints. The critical element of a dynamic arts and crafts bazaar: a good variety of art in all different price ranges, Baer said. An attractive, accessible convention center like the Inn of the Ozarks has is also a plus, she said, as are the location and parking. “And people can lodge there,” she said. Baer has invited a professional artist to

judge the show, and will award small prizes for best of show and people’s choice. The charge for a 10-by 10-foot space is $100, less than most other shows, she said. The charge covers facility rental, posters, publicity and possibly some seed money for next year’s bazaar. As of Oct. 20, Baer had five booth spaces available out of a possible 40, which can be stretched to 42 for the right person. “If you have something special and unique, we’ll find a space for you,” Baer said. The Eureka Springs Art Bazaar is from 10 a.m. to 7 p.m. Saturday, Nov. 29 at the Inn of the Ozarks Convention Center. Admission is two non-perishable food items or $3 for the Flint Street Food Bank.

Despite emotional appeals from local business owners and residents, and PETA’s support for a proposed ordinance banning future circuses from operating within city limits, the show will go on. The Eureka Springs City Council on Monday night received cheers from a crowd gathered in city hall when the council voted 4-2 in favor of passing the ordinance, drafted by City Attorney Tim Weaver last week. PETA issued a press release last week praising the council for the ordinance. But city law stipulates that unless there’s an emergency, an ordinance must be read three times in three separate meetings before being passed, and it takes 30 days until it goes into effect. Monday’s reading was the first. Since the Carson & Barnes Circus is scheduled to perform at Lake Leatherwood City Park on Nov. 5, the city will not be able to pass the ordinance in time to stop this event. Alderwoman Mickey Schneider said the proposed ordinance should be finetuned. “It will take about two-and-a-half months before this becomes law so people will have time to chime in,” Schneider told the Citizen. Though Schneider voted in favor of the proposed ordinance, she said that unlike 10 years ago, animal welfare laws are so strict that abusers can no longer move from one venue to another once they are fired and because of activism by groups like PETA, companies are more careful about how they treat their animals. During the meeting, council members passed around vegan elephant-shaped chocolates that PETA sent as a thank you for drafting the ordinance. “Kind people are appalled by the thought of a circus such as Carson & Barnes chaining, beating and shocking elephants and other animals in their city,” PETA Foundation Deputy General Counsel Delcianna Winders said in a news release. “PETA looks forward to seeing Eureka Springs join the progressive cities across the U.S. that have taken a firm

stand against cruel circuses that profit off animals’ suffering.” The performances will benefit Eureka Springs School District’s 21st Century After- School Program. The district will no longer receive funding from a state grant so the school board and parents will be responsible for continuing the program. Alderman James DeVito said that humanity has progressed beyond the point of needing to be entertained by “freak shows and carnivals.” The proposed ordinance will target traveling shows and won’t affect the Great Passion Play or Turpentine Creek Wildlife Refuge. A monkey used in the magic show at Intrigue Theater will be exempt from the city ordinance, as will rabbits at East by West. Tracellen Kelly, manager of the Good Shepherd Humane Society Thrift Shop, was one of many citizens who spoke in support of the proposed ordinance. Melissa Greene, who holds a seat on the city Planning Commission, spoke on behalf of herself and thanked local newspapers for being fair in their coverage of the issue. In her plea to the council, she referenced last week’s guest column written by Barbara Byrd, vice president of Carson & Barnes. “Byrd, who says she is the vice president of her family’s business but she’s actually the owner, says the circus’ treatment of animals is ‘acceptable and humane.’ This is prison lingo.” Greene referenced a 2012 settlement agreement between Carson & Barnes and United States Department of Agriculture Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service officials regarding the handling and care of the animals. According to the agreement, Carson & Barnes was fined $3,700 for alleged violations of the Animal Welfare Act. “Byrd floats over the USDA report and talks about APHIS [inspectors] who aren’t allowed into the animal training sessions,” Greene said. According to the USDA’s website, the AWA requires people who operate public exhibitions of animals to “pro-

vide their animals with adequate care and treatment in the areas of housing, handling, sanitation, nutrition, water, veterinary care and protection from extreme weather and temperatures.” In her guest column, Byrd wrote that the circus meets those requirements. “In regard to USDA inspections, Carson & Barnes always cooperates and takes any issue seriously. Our USDA license is in good standing because we do so. If any issues are noted, they have typically been in reference to maintenance, not the treatment of our animals,” Byrd’s letter said. Rachel Brix, an animal rights advocate and former member of the City Parks Commission who has been especially vocal on the issue at previous meetings, passed out copies of a proposed amendment to the AWA introduced last spring by Rep. Jim Moran, D-Va. The amendment would restrict the use of exotic and non-domesticated animals in traveling circuses and exhibitions. “The circus hides behind spin doctors. You can’t find a single photo of positive reinforcement in animal training. The circus enslaves and prostitutes animals for money. Let’s join 21 other states and be the first in Arkansas to say no to the circus,” Brix said. Greene refuted Byrd’s claims that animal rights activists advocate for emotional disconnection between animals and people. “We aren’t supposed to be connected to animals except for the ones who are domesticated. The rest we co-exist with,” Greene said. She went on to say that people who are protesting the circus represent the majority of Eureka Springs’ citizens. “If we are just a small community of animal lovers, then why do we have five to six rescues?” Trella Laughlin, a local activist and retired Stanford-educated journalist, said she is planning a peaceful protest the day of the event near Lake Leatherwood Park, to make people aware that they “should not support animal abuse.”

City Council votes down licenses for multifamily housing units By Alana Cook

Citizen.Editor.Eureka@gmail.com

EUREKA SPRINGS – The Eureka Springs City Council on Monday voted against a proposed ordinance that requires multifamily housing units to purchase business licenses and obtain a certificate of occupancy to continue their operations. The proposal would have required owners of multifamily housing, defined as three or more units per building, to purchase a business license at an annual cost of $75. The fee would have applied only to new property owners. Current property owners would be grandfathered in until the property changes hands, Alderwoman Mickey Schneider said. None of the people who attended a recent planning meeting on the issue were present at Monday’s council meeting. Melissa Greene from the Planning Commission said that multi-family property owners who attended the planning meeting were happy with upgrading the safety standards but did not want to pay the fee in order to do so. Alderman David Mitchell said the purpose of the fee was to establish minimum safety standards and bring multifamily housing to the same level of tourist lodging and bed and breakfasts. “If we can discuss protecting elephants, then we should protect our citizens,” Mitchell said. “I’ve personally seen some apartments in this community and they are appalling. People deserve safety. If we don’t look out for them who will? We have to have safety standards so people can live with dignity,” Alderman James DeVito said. The majority of multifamily housing operates in R-1 districts through conditional use permits, according to Planning Commission officials. To acquire a certificate of occupancy, a property

owner must invite the city officials into the dwelling to check and approve safety and health standards, namely fire safety. The Planning Commission and council will review a similar ordinance for duplexes and single homes. In other business, the council: • Received an update on the status of proposed construction plans for the new hospital, including ongoing contract negotiations between the city and Allegiance Health Management. • Received an update from Craig Hull, environmental adviser of the Osage Group, LLC, on FEMA’s requirements for the city’s Hazard Mitigation Plans. Hull briefed the council on the three requirements that need to be met so the City can qualify for federal disaster funding. • Tabled an issue regarding State Rep. Bob Ballinger, R-Hindsville, who represents Ray Dodson in regard to his application for a carriage franchise. Ballinger briefed the council on the status of the application. • Heard an update from Raven Derge regarding an art project to paint and repair the stairs from North Main St. to Spring St. using private donations. The project is slated for completion in time for the May 2016 Festival of the Arts.

The Truth, the Whole Truth and Nothing but the Truth No one can deny that when an election year comes around that the gloves come off & you will hear anything and everything that your opponent has or hasn’t done. Everything listed in this article will list the references & dates so you can research the information on your own as well. I, Betty Neal, firmly believe that running an honest campaign is the best and only way. I was raised in Carroll County and it is my turn to give back to the county that is so dear to my heart. I feel that the taxpayers of Carroll County deserve to be treated with dignity & be told the truth about ALL aspects of the Carroll County Circuit Clerks position. There is no denying that I want to win this election. I want to do the job - the whole job. If elected I will do my best to serve the people of Carroll County. I would end the arguing & excuses being made to the quorum court & residents of Carroll County. I don’t want to see unnecessary tax increases due to monies not coming into the Carroll County Circuit Clerks office as it should. Recently in the newspaper, Ramona Wilson claimed that money is collected on a daily basis. IF money is being collected everyday why are the figures not decreasing? To say just 2 weeks from the election that we have an automated computer system for fines NOW? I feel we are a day late & almost 3 million dollars short! Listen to her radio ads that states Experience, Experience, Experience ... 16 years ... Yes, She has been in office for 16 years. The Circuit Clerk’s office has had computers since 1988, but she has yet to do anything with them for collection of fines. Now, Ramona Wilson states that she has a computerized program and in the “future” will be using It..’’It will take some time to input all of the information, but it should be up and running soon.” I am sure we could go back even further, however. I researched back to 2010 and every time asked, she was “looking into it” or “would have it soon”. The time is NOW. We as Carroll County Residents should not be penalized for the lack of ability to take care of things that should have been taken care of years ago. Over 4 years Ramona Wilson has claimed that we will have an automated computer system - yet still NOTHING, but in the “future.” Ramona takes care of deeds and land surveys & real estate transactions, however, that is just a small portion of what the position of Carroll County Circuit Clerk entails. Here are just a few references that I am referring to as far as a time frame that Ramona Wilson has “thought” about automating the entire office as a whole. Ref. CCN 03/12/2010 ... Ramona states her goal is to ultimately have all records on a computer. This will be a slow process due to expenses involved. Ref: CCN 05/26/2012 ... Wilson states, “I see the value in automation, and am in the process of working with my staff and consulting with other court systems to find an automation system that can make the process more simple. Ret. CCN 08/03/2012 ... Wilson’s office has tucked away more than $250,000 for automation funding. She has accumulated this money over many years through record keeping fines, but, she still has not hired a company to set up the system. “I don’t know what the cost would be for an automated system, but it can’t be that expensive” Presently the circuit clerk uses handwritten ledger books to record payment schedules, fines and fees. Wilson acknowledged that her system is not only outdated, it is also inefficient. Ref: Independent 08/27/2014 ... Sheriff Grudek states that he could take over Wilson’s job of taking fines, but someone must still go through the ledgers manually, to determine who they are chasing. When the records are automated, though, the computer provides a list at the end of each month of who is delinquent. I will agree with Wilson on ONE aspect... Yes, there are steps involved. We will notify the prosecutor, have the judge sign a warrant, hand it over to the Sheriffs Office, but having everything automated at the touch of a button will enable for records to show immediately even as little as a traffic stop to show that a warrant has been issued for delinquent payments. If you elect me, I will strive 110% to hit the ground running & dedicate my time to getting the office of the Carroll County Circuit Clerk in efficient working order. I know it will take time, but from day 1, I will work with the office staff In improving the programs & recording issues. Another item that concerns me is that Domestic Violence has hit Carroll County. Unless you have a protection order entered into the computerized system - absolutely no one knows it. For example, your divorce decree states that your ex-spouse is not to be within so many feet of you or at your place of employment - No one knows it, especially law enforcement, and since the system is not computerized, absolutely nothing can be done. Law Enforcement can only advise that it would fall under contempt of court, IF it states that information in your divorce decree. I want to have everything entered into the system so that no matter where you are, you can feel safe that all you need to do is make that phone call to law enforcement. I believe you deserve to know the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth. I ask for your support in turning the Circuit Clerks Office around & I would be honored to serve you.

Farwell was leader in Eureka Springs ‘renaissance’ By Samantha Jones

CCNNews@cox-internet.com

Orville Wayne Farwell was a Republican, but not when he ran for Carroll County Judge in 1978. Farwell knew Republicans simply didn’t win elections in Arkansas at the time. So Farwell ran as an independent. It was a shrewd political move. Farwell beat seven-term incumbent Arthur Carter, a popular Democrat and World War II hero, by more than 500 votes. During his four years as county judge, Farwell established a legacy in Eureka Springs that will remain long after his passing on Sept. 22. His close friend John F. Cross described Farwell’s involvement in the restoration of downtown Eureka Springs circa 1979. Cross, who was appointed co-chairman of the Centennial Commission in 1978, credited his friendship with Farwell for allowing the town to work together to produce visible, tangible change in Eureka Springs. The commission first worked on restoring the springs in town, but Cross

believes the restoration of the courthouse was the zenith of the restoration. The courthouse, he recalled, was falling apart as much as a stone structure could without being completely condemned. “You can’t imagine how bad of shape it was in. It had been neglected for so long that the windows were rotting,” Cross said. Having grown up with Farwell, he reached out to the county judge for help restoring the courthouse. Farwell, with the help of Quorum Court, agreed to begin restoring the long-forgotten structure. Within two years, the courthouse was in better shape than ever. “That was one of the things we were really proud of, besides restoring the springs because it was the last time this town really got together on something,” Cross said. “We restored this town in two years. It was a metamorphosis. It was a renaissance.” Cross added that, without Farwell’s help, the restoration would likely have taken longer and been less successful. “Wayne was a big help to us. I thanked

Citizen of the Week Fatima Treuer is well-known in Eureka Springs as the owner of the Pied Piper Pub and the Cathouse Lounge. She’s also known for her support of local causes and her willingness to lend a hand for her fellow Eurekans. Recently, Fatima helped organize the “Back Our Kids” Gala at Castle Rogues Manor. The event raised $25,000 that will go directly to the Back Our Kids program. The program provides food for needy children on the weekends and when school is not in session. For her devotion to the program, and her selfless contributions to the city of Eureka Springs, Fatima Treuer is our Citizen of the Week.

him over and over again,” he said. Cross called Farwell a “get-along guy,” saying he had the right personality for a county judge. Farwell rarely found himself in trouble, focusing on his work, family and

friends. He hunted quail with Cross occasionally but partnered with Warren Keck for frequent hunting trips. When Keck and his wife were killed in a one-vehicle accident years ago, Farwell was distraught. “It really hit him hard,” Cross recalled. Before running for county judge, Farwell worked with heavy building equipment. He contributed to the development of Holiday Island, working with the roads and sewer lines. Cross believes Farwell’s experience with roads helped him win the election in 1978, since the development of areas such as Holiday Island was such a big issue at the time. Married twice, Farwell is survived by three daughters: Kathryn Farwell of Cape Girardeau, Mo.; Rebecca Condra of Puyallup, Wash.; and Anita Farwell of Bentonville, as well as one stepdaughter, Janet Goforth of Eureka Springs, and two stepsons, Larry Allen of Eureka Springs and Gary Allen of Holiday Island. Graveside services for Farwell were held Saturday at the Roach Cemetery.

Mr. Moyer; I feel really betrayed by your (and presumably the Chamber’s) ill-thought out endorsement of radical Republican gubernatorial candidate Asa Hutchinson. Tourism notwithstanding, the rest of Mr. Hutchinson’s platform is in large part contrary to the views of many if not most citizens of this city. You have thrown progressive Eurekans right under the Hutchinson campaign bus. I guess our city is not much different than the rest of the country after all. When it comes to pursuing the almighty dollar, the other important issues that concern the rest of us seem to be of no consequence to the “big money” interests who in our case will accept tourism assistance from whatever source at any price. There is much more at stake here than tourism. Remember that Mr. Hutchinson, if elected, will influence the direction of government through the office of Governor and through his appointments to various courts, state agencies and boards. That’s a lot of influence; entirely too much influence for a governor with close ties to the most radical right-wing segments of his party. Do you really believe that Mr. Hutchinson will stand for us regarding SWEPCO? I’ve never met a radical Republican who didn’t support Big Business in all its forms. What makes you think Mr. Hutchinson would be any different? What a politi-

cian! It looks like Mr. Hutchinson did not promise you one single thing that you could pin him down to. The letter you wrote seems to be much more about what you think, hope or wish Mr. Hutchinson might do, not what he said he would do. I’m sorry that Mr. Ross did not come to Eureka Springs. I think he made a large mistake. Maybe he heard that the Hutchinson endorsement was a “done deal” anyway. But I’m looking at much, much more than my pocketbook. I just won’t vote for a radical Republican no matter what he says, who endorses him, or how much good that endorser has done for our community in the past. That is why I will not be following your advice. Rita Wessel

DEFEND RIGHTS PROTECT OUR CHILDREN ON NOVEMBER 4 EVERY ARKANSAN COULD LOSE

THEIR RIGHT TO CHOOSE FOREVER! The Alcohol Amendment (Issue 4) would force every Arkansas county and community to be wet, regardless of local choice. The Amendment is an unfair and undemocratic attempt to take an important right away from us.

• If the Alcohol Amendment isn’t defeated, there would be NO LIMITATION on the location of bars and liquor stores. • Bars and liquor stores could locate right next to our churches, schools, and day care centers, with ABSOLUTELY ZERO LOCAL CONTROL.

Back Our Kids gala raises $25,000

Eurekans have once again proved that selfless generosity defines them. The “Back Our Kids” Gala held Oct.16 at Castle Rogues Manor can only be described as a phenomenal success. The weather, the food (Catered Creations) and the music (Earl and Them) could not have been more perfect, but the incredible auction was what really pushed things over the top. All the oneof-a-kind works of art, spa visits, meals, vacation weekends, wines and gift bags full of goodies were the donations of Eureka Springs’ talented and resourceful local citizens. In addition, Arvest Bank pledged $5,000 to the cause. This donation alone will fee 27 children for one year. In all, the event raised $25,000, all of which will go directly to the Back Our Kids program. The soiree was organized by Fatima Treuer, Keith “Snuffy” Ketchum, Vic-

ki “Sticks” Brown, Ben Helmer, Woody Acord and Kathy Remenar in conjunction with Pat Kasner and the Flint Street Fellowship team. Back Our Kids provides food for weekend meals and for times when school is not in session. Presently 45 Eureka Springs Elementary school children are receiving food assistance. The vision of BOK is to provide community support and options for all children, and weekend meals to our less fortunate youth is just the beginning. “There are no words to express how grateful we are to all those who helped to make the Back Our Kids Gala such a positive and uplifting experience,” Ketchum said. “Eureka Springs is truly providing for its future by caring for its children in the present.” To learn more and donate to this mission, visit FlintStreet.org and click on BackOurKids or call 479-253-4945.

The Natural Way Anxiety is the enemy

ur world is changing quickly. Our behavior as a nation has been and is in question Jim Fain by so many throughout the world. Now we are inundated with the worry of a new disease (at least to us) namely Ebola. At times of great change anxiety levels increase. The nature of anxiety is important to understand. It is anticipation of what MIGHT happen based often upon what HAS happened. When we act to reduce anxiety by becoming angry, controlling and not listening to others, we end up hurting others and hurting ourselves. Engaging in a pre-emptive battle/war does give us an outlet for revenge and the faulty view of making ourselves safe again. However, revenge and healing are opposing energies — one cannot be seeking revenge and have healing at the same time. It is very human and misdirected to dump our need for revenge on someone or group we think is lesser. The outcome is certain that way. What makes this more difficult to sort out is that anxiety and excitement are very similar in our bodies. The experience is the same; adrenalin rushes, heartbeat quickens, breathing rate increases and a call to action follows. The difference is that anxiety is based upon worry about the future while excitement is felt in the present. War produces excitement as it is happening NOW. This shifts how we see the world and anxiety lessens for a while. Bottom line is that this is a faulty way of becoming secure. This type of aggressiveness creates a thin film of safety which constantly must be kept up; otherwise it fails miserably. By engaging in any aggressive act we mortgage our sons, daughters and many generations to come. No human can live in anxiety and peace at the same time. Fighting for peace is a failed policy — it just changes the cast of characters. Protesting for peace is another way of saying “fighting for peace,” just done differently. To have peace, we must live IN peace. Trouble is, great spiritual trust is needed. That all-too-human demon of anxiety is always nearby. Therefore, turnoff the TV, take a couple of capsules of L-theanine, Relaxation Support, maybe add some L-5HTP or Adrenal Support. Enjoy the moment, give thanks for your life while bolstering yourself to deal with the world as it is. Be sure to tell people that are important to you, you love them.

Wisecrack Zodiac ARIES: Forget the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow; you’ll find a fast food coupon at the end of the parking lot, which is much better. Leprechauns don’t exist, but pumpkin lattes do. TAURUS: Stop the soul-searching; you could slide that sucker under a two-photon microscope and still not find out anything new. Just try to be nice to people so they don’t spit in your food or let the elevator doors close on you. That’s enough. GEMINI: If you wait for the right time and place, you’ll miss some gloriously fun mistakes. Throw caution to the wind, and remember to duck if it changes direction. You don’t want to be coldcocked by an updraft. CANCER: Sure, you’re poetry in motion, but it’s more like a bad limerick cruising on a sputtering moped. That look can still work for you, as long as you wear oversized sunglasses and do a few pratfalls. LEO: Every day is a fresh block of clay, so quit rolling it up and making turds out of it. You don’t have to aim for the Venus de Milo, but you’re capable of a second-grade art project dinosaur at the very least. VIRGO: Some bring charisma, others bring sparkle, but everyone knows what you bring to the party: chips. Make them the cheddar cheese flavor instead of plain, unless you plan to broaden your social skills by bringing dip too. LIBRA: Success is defined by the lives you touch, although everyone wishes you’d wash your hands occasionally. You don’t have to leave such sticky fingerprints when you share, so keep some wet wipes handy for karmic purposes. SCORPIO: Thursday will hand you a challenge, but don’t wait to answer it until you’ve dramatically paused for a commercial break. This isn’t a reality show and opportunity doesn’t care about station identification. SAGITTARIUS: Someone’s dropping hints on you at home, but you refuse to take off that silly helmet. Don’t worry, a few notions won’t mess up

your hair but if you keep ignoring your sweetie, a cast iron pan might. CAPRICORN: Wednesday is a good day for harvesting your crops, giving to the needy or binge-watching “The Walking Dead” until you’re hiding under the bed and peeing on yourself; just depends on which one applies most to your life. AQUARIUS: Say the magic word on Friday and a wealth of treasures will be yours. If the magic word is your

PISCES: Quit living under a rock; that’s only suitable for pink starfish wearing boxer shorts. Step into the sunlight occasionally so you can get a little color and to prove you’re not a vampire.
