In his new ‘X’ed Out’ series, graphic novelist Charles Burns voyages to a nightmarish post-punk landscape 0G @716/@2 D=< 0CA/19

H

ALLOWEEN comes early this year with the release of X’ed Out, the new book by Charles Burns. Of the phantoms that stalk it, one of the unquiet is the ghost of punk rock, called forth from the late-1970s setting of this nightmarish but oddly innocent graphic novel created by one of the most notable exponents of the form. The most distinguished cartoonists in the world have drawn horror stories, but in our time Charles Burns is the most shockingly elegant of them all. The new series X’ed Out (Pantheon), which will be continued in two subsequent volumes, represents some of his most visually

mesmerizing and handsomely presented work to date. It’s a fresh triumph for the cartoonist known for his series Black Hole, which is awaiting adaptation into a film. Burns, who will sign copies of X’ed Out at Bookshop Santa Cruz this Tuesday, gave me an update on that development from his Philadelphia home last week. “I think the last I heard is that things are still moving forward,� he said, “and as far as I know there’s a script, and David Fincher [The Social Network] is still attached as a producer. They’re still looking for directors.� X’ed Out takes place on two dimensions, with a shaky barrier between them. In a basement, Nitnit, a cartoony shock-haired figure, wakes up on his fold-out

couch. Inky, a long-lost cat (“God, I . . . I thought you were deadâ€?) leads him through an aperture in a brick wall into a parallel world. It’s in ruins: there are collapsed tombs and green swamps where piggish humanoids float. The wanderer passes by an incubation room full of enormous eggs with scarlet blotches tended by furious man-sized salamanders. The trek continues into a threatening foreign setting where diseased merchants sell repulsive living food. Nitnit is aided by a sinister swollen half-pint in a dhoti. Unbidden come visions of an ailing, depressed father who is giving up his life to booze, TV and cigarettes, his skin jaundiced to a pale urine color. ¨

1=D3@ AB=@G j <=B3A 4@=; B63 C<23@5@=C<2 Perhaps this is all the dream of Doug, a sickened layabout of the late 1970s, very ill himself. Doug’s half-shaven head is bandaged, and he’s dependent on a dwindling supply of some increasingly ineffective medicine. Doug’s fevered mind flashes back to a time when he had his health, when he was an aspiring performance artist wearing a Nitnit mask and reading from his dream journal at an underground galley. There, Doug meets Sarah, a girl who poses for troubling photos. She herself is stalked by some raging ex-boyfriend who has already started destroying her possessions. Those familiar with Burns can guess how smooth such a jagged-sounding trip is. Laid out in what are primarily ninepanel pages, the foreground characters are drawn in that so-called ligne claire style popular with Low Country cartoonists, particularly the best known of them all, HergÊ. The rest of the art is unmistakable Burns: flat panels of color or pulsating squares that look like dark-field microscopy. Placid smooth skin gives up jagged wounds; there are suppurating masses of flesh and oozing meat, or blasted rocks and swamps and flotsam. Throughout X’ed Out is that most elemental discontent: an atmosphere of being in the center of a crowd of people who want to do you harm.

Twin Freaks Burns grew up in various spots all over the country. A childhood touchstone, often referred to in interviews, is his fascination with The Outer Limits. This was a popular 1960s TV drama with regular parables of strange invaders. The adventures there forecast the stories of Burns’ odd child Big Baby. The name David Lynch gets dropped by critics who read Black Hole, which was serially published between 1995 and 2005. It was finally collected in book form in 2005. Black Hole’s setting is a Cobainian northwestern landscape, sometime around 1975. An unnamable plague is striking the young on the fringes of a Seattle suburb, the result of a degenerative disease carried by sex and shared saliva. A circle of seemingly harmless “freaks�—as vegetating drug-takers of the time proudly called themselves—are here genuine mutants. It’s Burns’ usual blend of fantastic monstrosity with almost photorealistic high-contrast black-and-white figures and faces. But the originality of this tale is rooted in the unbearably sharp feelings of adolescence. Seascape raptures are

ruined by turds, bones, litter and broken glass. Vertiginous circles and jagged rents tear open the fabric of the ordinary world. Maybe the worst damage is caused by the adolescent delusion that a lover is actually a messiah. Black Hole alludes to the shame of adolescence—a chemical change that turns an unwitting child into a stranger to himself. This too is the theme of Lynch in Blue Velvet and the real story of the demon-haunted Washington woods in Twin Peaks. Both artists were from the Pacific Northwest; Lynch from Idaho, Burns from Washington state (as well as Washington, D.C.). And both Lynch and Burns lived in Philadelphia. “Lynch is on record saying he’d never live in Philadelphia again,â€? Burns says. “But I like big decaying cities.â€? The sensibilities of Lynch and Burns, however, are ultimately different. There is, for example, the out-and-out humor in Burns that isn’t found in Lynch. Where Lynch is the kind of artist who could turn up for years at the same coffee shop, Burns is more of a wanderer. Burns’ schooling was varied, and it included a stint in art school at UCDavis during the peak of the funk-art years. Funk art was a ’70s post-Pop movement based on salvaged or untraditional materials, with deep veins of humor and political content: its ecstasies countered the austere minimalism then popular in New York. Nearby in Winters, Calif., Robert Crumb drew and edited Weirdo magazine, a conduit between the smartest of the hippie cartoonists and the most astute of the punks. Later, Burns would come to worldwide attention at a magazine that was diametrically opposed to Weirdo. Art Spiegelman’s New York-based Raw was an attempt to create the kind of high-art presentation the comic book was getting in Western Europe. Designing the cover for Raw and appearing in several issues, Burns became one of its most noteworthy artists. All this came later. At Davis, Burns became one of the first Anglos to admire lucha libre culture, from which he sourced one character, the maskedwrestling detective El Borbah. “There’s a lot of little towns around Davis that would have Mexican magazines with wrestlers on the cover,â€? Burns says. “I found myself interested in that look and these almost ridiculously fun costumes.â€? At the Central Valley university, Burns studied a series of different disciplines. “I ¨ !

was learning photography and drawing and painting and sculpture. But a lot of my drawing had this narrative feel. I hadn’t really done a lot of comics per se.� It wasn’t until he was almost gone from Davis that the light went off. “Right during the end of my time there, I started doing a photo comic based on the Mexican magazines I’d seen,� he says. “It got me into thinking about wanting to do comics, to tell a narrative for mass circulation. I thought, ‘You could put two weeks in a drawing and sell it and never see it again. Or you could work for publication. If five people wanted to read it, that’d be great. If 50,000 people wanted to read it, that’d be even better.’�

Tintin in Hell Burns has never been an artist who fancied direct autobiography, but the passages of X’ed Out regarding punk rock in the late 1970s are as evocative as the stories of teen rejects in the woods in Black Hole. Even the title of the book itself has that telltale X. It’s a tremendously symbolic letter for punks, the letter of secrets, of the unknown.

It is the letter of negation: a double pen slash through the glossy face of a poster or a billboard. There was, of course, Geza X, Billy Idol’s Generation X and that certain husband and wife band from L.A. If punk was a movement that chose exile, it also made a home for exiles. “It was liberating, that period,â€? Burns said. “I lived through it, and a portion of it has stuck with me. What I liked is the idea of taking responsibility for your own work. If tomorrow comes and my books don’t sell, I’ll still do comics, even if they’re Xeroxed photocopies. At this point in my career, I have control. No one at Pantheon explained to me what kind of project I should be doing or how I could make it a corporate project.â€? Burns’ graphic punch is due to his evocative use of black and white. “I have a fair sense of color,â€? he says, “and I wanted to make sure I was avoiding coming up with a colorized version of black and white. Obviously part of what I wanted to do was a book in the style and that format of the French/Belgian comic book album, a style commonplace over there, if not here.â€? X’ed Out’s cover is a tribute to HergÊ’s 1942 Tintin adventure L’Etoile MystĂŠrieuse (The Shooting Star), which depicts our journalist hero as flabbergasted by a 15-foot-tall mushroom. And of course the shock-haired dream figure “Nitnitâ€? is about as cleverly disguised as “Count Alucardâ€? in a horror movie. That goes double for Nitnit’s pet Inky the Cat, standing in for Snowy the Dog. But the nightmare landscape is almost like Tintin’s Naked Lunch, as if Burns had sent the Belgian boy reporter to William S. Burrough’s “The Zone,â€? just as modern artists send characters to ¨

1=D3@ AB=@G Alice’s Wonderland or Dorothy’s Oz. “Certainly,� Burns says, “that influence comes from that period in which the core of the story takes place, the 1970s. Burroughs fit into that world, that dispossessed youth culture. In Burroughs there always was this polarity of disgust and fascination. His dark vision of the world was something I related to.� The passage where Doug, wearing a Nitnit mask, performs a staged reading of “cut-ups� of the William Burroughs/Brion Gyson school, was indeed something Burns did when he was a student in the 1970s. “There’s no documentation, thank God. I wasn’t like the character Doug in every way, just in some ways. He reflects what I was doing at school.�

Wimps and Bruisers Ultimately, even punk proved to be a temporary way station for Burns, and X’ed Out may well be his elegy for it. The story is told elsewhere in memoirs of those on the scene, but as the artist says, “I was just talking to Gary Panter [a fellow artist at Raw], who was the first person who I’d ever had a sense of being a punk cartoonist because he worked at Slash magazine. He was saying that the early days of punk were mostly girls and very wimpy art students. They were the kids who got their asses kicked at school walking around with a guitar—but then before long, the surf punks descended into the mosh pit.� When the bruisers crashed the dance floor, punk was all ready for commoditization. X’ed Out is a nightmare vision, but there’s a kind of paradise that complements its inferno. And that’s what draws me in: the moments of youthful happiness. Burns is trying to reclaim the earlier sense of possibilities of punk, “the goofy art student feel,� Burns says. “Culture wasn’t defined yet at this stage; maybe some people had seen some English magazines, they’re wearing something they’ve seen the Sex Pistols wear, and they still don’t know you don’t have to draw swastikas on your arms. Maybe they’ve still got long hair to go with the skinny tie.� It’s a rich vein for Burns, who hints he may explore it further. “Once in the fall of 1977, this girl on the street passed me; she was wearing a crooked pair of plastic sunglasses and she stopped to ask me, ‘Do I look punk?’ There’s a certain sadness to that kind of behavior—I may put it in the next comic.� CHARLES BURNS appears Tuesday, Oct. 26, at 7:30pm at Bookshop Santa Cruz, 1520 Pacific Ave., Santa Cruz.

B63 A7:3<13 =4 B63 :/;0A (1991) The

scariest psycho-killer movie ever. Jodie Foster is an FBI agent trying to extract information from a manipulative, cannibalistic psychopath (Anthony Hopkins) in order to save a woman from another serial killer who skins his victims. (Plays Thu at 8pm at Santa Cruz 9.) G=C E7:: ;33B / B/:: 2/@9 AB@/<53@ (R; 98

min.) Plushly set but terminally awkward London-set comedy drama. The title transforms a fortune teller’s prediction into a sentence of doom, as per the line in Allen’s Cassandra’s Dream: “The only ship sure to come in has black sails.â€? Here is Allen’s customary theme: given the certainty of death and the absence of God, how to conduct oneself ? Better than these characters. Helena (Gemma Jones) and her husband, Alfie (Anthony Hopkins), have split, due to his terror of dying. He’s taken consolation with a ÂŁ500 a night prostitute named Charmaine (the wonderful Lucy Punch). She’s seeing a psychic and drinking a bit, though Allen doesn’t understand what this boozing might entail as either comedy or drama; alcohol is not his thing. Meanwhile, the couple’s daughter (Naomi Watts) is struggling with her own career as her husband, Roy (Josh Brolin), wrestles with his unpublishable novel. Roy has his own obsession with a girl across the courtyard (Frida Pinto, almost audibly pleading for direction). Punch is the salt of this movie, a leggy comedian who makes even the minor dumb blonde jokes sail. (Opens Fri at Del Mar.) (RvB)

@3D73EA 1/B47A6 (PG13; 94 min.) The new documentary Catfish does for social networking what 1999’s Blair Witch Project did for hand-held film. It deals with the problem of the realer-than-real illusion imparted by documentaries and

social networking. The narrow field of vision and depth in portable cameras creates some haunting images: the Michigan town, under flat blue skies, is as empty as the plaza in a de Chirico painting. The sequence of the team exploring a deserted farmhouse, by the green light of night vision at 3am, creates stomachturning tension. The payoff is diabolically plausible and definitely tragic: there’s true horror in such a pitiful need for recognition. (RvB) 3/AG / (PG-13; 95 min.) High school girl Olive (Emma Stone) gets her reputation ruined and decides to revel in it, accessorizing her outfits with the scarlet A she just read about in Nathaniel Hawthorne in English class. An urbane and sly comedy, vastly superior to Juno; the appealing lead name-checks John Hughes films but this surpasses his conformist work, despite director Will Gluck’s tendency to shoot the exteriors of Ojai homes with Nancy Meyers–like fussiness. Good work by Patricia Clarkson and Stanley Tucci as Olive’s debonair parents; Scripter Bert V. Royal’s gags are almost syncopated—this isn’t relentless joke-joke-joke. The laughs come with the grace of a word to the wise, and the sense on how to emphasize sting at just the right time. (RvB) 63/@B0@3/93@

(PG-13; 105 minutes) A French romantic comedy about three people who make a business (literally) of breaking-up other people’s relationships.

min.) Director Matt (Cloverfield) Reeves’ respect for the original Swedish film, Let the Right One In, makes this an honorable and chilling movie about the uncanny. It has that element of pity that results in genuine horror, instead of a series of ever-noisier and yet ever-diminishing shocks. The action takes place in Los Alamos, N.M., in the winter of 1983. Raised by a drunken but pious single mom, Owen (Kodi Smit-McPhee) is getting to the stage where he’s less interested in candy and more interested in knives. Skinny, pale and with disturbingly wideset eyes, he is a natural target for bullies. This is when Abby (Chloe Moretz) shows up. She’s a pale girl with dirty bare feet, and she only comes out at night. What Owen doesn’t know is that Abby’s father (Richard Jenkins) is a serial killer who ritually murders his victims. All in all, Reeves does a fine job of delivering the forlornness, solitude and shame of this story, which only uses the word “vampire� once: the focus is not on blood for blood’s sake but on the tragedy of inexplicable need. (RvB) <3D3@ :3B ;3 5= (R; 103 min.)

Bruce Willis is a retired black-ops CIA agent at loose ends until a hightech assassin comes to pick him off, at which point he assembles his old team and gets the brass at Langley all in a tizzy. With Morgan Freeman, Helen Mirren, Richard Dreyfuss, MaryLouise Parker and Karl Urban. A31@3B/@7/B (PG; 116 minutes) Today’s riddle: When is a horse a bum steer? I was ready to believe that Seabiscuit ended the Depression. You have to give a good film some slack. I was alive in 1973, the year Secretariat won the Triple Crown. I don’t recall his victory healing our divisions over the Vietnam War, though director Randall Wallace coaxes us to believe it’s true. Secretariat is inbred—the offspring of too many similar sports films. It’s relentlessly thick—custard-thick— and cheap-looking, too, and its story is as fishy as 3-day-old salmon; it tries to make an underhorse out of a very blueblooded steed. Diane

Lane, ordinarily a fine actress, gets no help from the script which seems to be trying to make her an anti-heroine. Lane plays thoroughbred breeder Penny Chenery. Ultimately, Secretariat is more fundraising pitch than race track action. (RvB)

wild, witty script hands out punishment that goes beyond the financial penalties: this is a comedy in the Balzac sense, a balancing act; the mockery and the disgust for greed matches the essential lightness of the situation. It’s only Facebook, after all. (RvB)

B63 A=17/: <3BE=@9 (PG-13;

B63 B=E< (R; 125

120 min.) Fiendishly clever and funny movie about the creation of an Internet monster. As Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg, Jesse Eisenberg gives a master class on recessive acting: he’s beady eyed and covert, with the occasional pit-viper-like sway of a truculent, lowered forehead. The film shuttles between the present-day deposition of the now arrogantly rich Zuckerberg, as he’s sued by a quartet of burned partners (among them his former best friend Eduardo, played by Andrew Garfield). In flashback, we see his own history—a Jewish student at WASP-ridden Harvard, a social reject whose grudge-hacking was his entry into fame. Later, Zuckerberg meets the founder of Napster, Sean Parker—played by Justin Timberlake, excellent as a happy wastrel. Aaron Sorkin’s

min.) Routine plotting, if some rousing action sequences, in this Boston crime drama with Ben Affleck, a hunk-sized hole in the screen. It’s the old two-brothers plot, foster brothers though they be: Affleck as criminal paragon and his younger nuttybuddy Jim (Jeremy Renner of The Hurt Locker) ready to lash out and hurt someone. We keep waiting for Jon Hamm’s unshaven FBI agent Frawley to rattle the cages. It’s Blake Lively, as an Oxycontinfancying tramp, who gets the brunt of Hamm’s power; she does some excellent reacting to a little bar-side lecture Hamm gives about a $20 bill. Rebecca Hall has too much presence to be just the girl whose entry into the plot causes friction between the two main thieves. The muchrewritten script is choppy and undermotivated, though Chris Cooper and Pete Postlethwaite

are outstanding in tiny roles. (RvB) E/7B7<5 4=@ AC>3@;/< (PG; 102

min.) The vast problems of the U.S. public school system distilled into a quick documentary. Davis Guggenheim (An Inconvenient Truth) follows five young students as they try to get into private schools. (One is eighth-grader Emily of Redwood City, whose parents are concerned that she’ll be pushed onto a noncollege track.) It’s Guggenheim’s contention that school funding has doubled while test scores continue to descend. Yet this documentary has the kind of ideology even Meg Whitman can wrap herself around: you can watch it and come to the conclusion that privatization and union-busting is the answer—the same answer we’ve been given since the 1980s. This may not have been Guggenheim’s intention. But as always in this passionate-intensity style documentary, there’s the possibility of deliberate misreading, thanks to the lethal combo of stridency and slipperiness. (RvB) E/:: AB@33B( ;=<3G <3D3@ A:33>A (PG-13; 133

min.) The film starts

with a critique of capitalism that doesn’t really want to critique capitalism and keeps going. Shia LeBeouf plays Jake Moore, who is busting his figs on the Street to finance his pet project, described as “that little energy company in California.� Turns out that his girlfriend is Gordon Gekko’s estranged daughter Winnie (Carey Mulligan). Gekko (Michael Douglas) has reformed and written a book called Is Greed Good? and is blatting out platitudes. Director Oliver Stone’s wellknown immunity to shame flabbergasts you anew. The world has changed since the 1987 original. Here, it’s the stale breath of melodrama that overwhelms you, not the breathtaking qualities of the barbs aimed at the master class. (RvB) G=C /5/7< (PG; 105 min.) Two motherdaughter pairs (Jamie Lee Curtis and Kristin Bell as the bubbly blondes; Sigourney Weaver and Odette Yustma as the wicked brunettes) carry their high school rivalries from one generation to the next. With obligatory hilarious innuendo provided by Betty White.

Astrology Free Will

By Rob Brezsny

For the week of October 20 /@73A (March 21–April 19): “There’s one ultimate goal during sex,� says Cosmopolitan magazine, a renowned source of erotic guidance for women. That is “to be as sensually stimulated as possible.� I don’t quite agree with that assessment. Having emotionally pleasing fun should also be an important consideration, as well as creating a playful ambiance and invoking spiritual grace. But sensual stimulation is good, too. So what, in the view of Cosmopolitan, is the key to cultivating maximum bliss? “Having lots of steamy info at your disposal.� That’s definitely sound advice for you right now, Aries. You’re in a favorable phase for finding out more about everything that will enhance your access to delight, including the sexual kind. B/C@CA (April 20–May 20): When the tide is coming in, the creek I live next to f lows vigorously toward the south. When the tide’s going out, the water reverses its course and heads swiftly north. Every day, there’s an in-between time when the creek seems confused. Some currents creep south and others slink north, while here and there eddies whirl in circles. According to my understanding of the astrological omens, Taurus, you are temporarily in a phase that resembles my creek’s time of contrary f lows. It’s a perfectly natural place to be. 53;7<7 (May 21–June 20): In fifth grade I was in love with Calley, who was the by far prettiest girl in the school. Sadly, she didn’t return my affection, so I had to be content with adoring her from afar. Eventually I moved away and lost touch. Since then I’ve wondered if she suffered the fate that befalls too many gorgeous women: relying so entirely on her looks to make her way in the world that she never developed many skills. But recently I tracked Calley down via Google and discovered that she had beaten the curse: She has carved out a career as an activist bringing first-rate education to poor children. My question to you is this, Gemini: Are there any qualities you regarded as assets earlier in your life but that eventually turned into liabilities? Any strengths that became weaknesses? And what are you doing to adjust? It’s a good time to address these themes.

1/<13@ (June 21–July 22): Think back to the last half of 1998. What was going on in your life back then? According to my astrological projections, you were probably carrying out experiments in a wild frontier . . . or getting your mind rearranged by rousing teachings and provocative revelations . . . or breaking through artificial limits that had been quashing your freedom . . . or all of the above. Now you’ve come around again to a similar phase of your grand cycle. Are you ready for action? If you’d like to gather up all the grace f lowing in your vicinity, start having fun with escapes, experiments, and expansions. :3= (July 23–Aug. 22): “I wish I treated my feet with the same tender loving care as I do my face,� wrote Catherine Saint Louis in The New York Times. “But I don’t.� She quotes a study that says more than half of all women are embarrassed about their feet, and notes that Facebook has many “I Hate Feet� groups. You Leos can’t afford to be under this spell right now. Even more than usual, it’s crucial for you to be well-grounded. So I suggest you maneuver yourself into a state of mind where earthiness is beautiful and appealing to you. Find ways to celebrate your body and improve your relationship with it. How to start? Love your feet better. D7@5= (Aug. 23–Sept. 22): At this phase of my life, I’m not canvassing door-to-door asking people to donate money to save old growth forests. I’m not a member of groups fighting for an end to the war in Afghanistan or agitating in behalf of animal rights. My struggle for social and environmental justice is waged primarily through the power of my writing. I subscribe to the attitude of author Ingrid Bengis, who said, “Words are a form of action, capable of inf luencing change.� In the coming weeks, I suggest you increase your awareness of how you could transform your world with the power of your language. Is it possible to increase your clout through the way you communicate? :70@/ (Sept. 23–Oct. 22): In the weeks ahead, Libra, you’re going to be tested on your followthrough. People will want you to work harder on what has previously come fairly easily. You will be pressured to make good on your promises; you’ll be asked to refine the details that are central to

the success of the good new ideas that are f loating around. As much as you might be tempted to slip away and f ly off in pursuit of things that are more fun, I encourage you to stick with the program. You can’t imagine how important it is for you to learn how to be a more committed builder.

A1=@>7= (Oct. 23–Nov. 21): “If you’re strong enough there are no precedents,� said novelist F. Scott Fitzgerald. I think that describes you in the immediate future, Scorpio. I bet you won’t have to answer to ghosts or pay homage to the way things have always been done. You’ll be free to ignore icons that the conventional wisdom idolizes, and there’ll be no need for you to give undeserved respect to experts who have stopped being relevant. By my astrological reckoning, you will be so smart and plucky and energetic that you can work wonders simply by emptying your mind, starting from scratch, and making things up as you go along.

A/57BB/@7CA (Nov. 22–Dec. 21): Scientists have discovered an exotic animal that feeds on the bones of dead whales lying on the ocean f loor. Known informally as the bone-eating snot-f lower worm, it looks like a frilly pink plume growing up out of sheer bone. Believe it or not, Sagittarius, you could take a cue from this creature in the coming weeks. It will be a favorable time for you to draw sustenance from the skeletal remains of big things that were once vital. 1/>@71=@< (Dec. 22–Jan. 19): What is the wild and instinctual nature? Radiance magazine posed that question to storyteller Clarissa Pinkola Estes. Here’s her reply: “to establish territory, to find one’s pack, to be in one’s body with certainty and pride regardless of the body’s gifts and limitations, to speak and act in one’s behalf, to be aware, alert, to draw on the innate feminine powers of intuition and sensing, to come into one’s cycles, to find what one belongs to.� I would love to see you specialize in these wild and instinctual arts in the coming weeks, Capricorn. According to my analysis of the astrological omens, you are ready to tap into the deeper reserves of your animal intelligence. Your body is primed to make you very smart about what you need and how to get what you need.

/?C/@7CA (Jan. 20–Feb. 18): When I think of the extraordinary feats of strength you will be capable of in the coming weeks, my mind turns to a Chinese martial artist named Dong Changsheng. Last May, he attached one end of a rope to his eyelids and the other end to a small airplane, then pulled the thousandpound load 15 feet in a minute. I don’t think your demonstration of power will be as literal as his, and I suspect it will be more useful and meaningful. But in certain respects it could be just as amazing. >7A13A (Feb. 19–March 20): Scottish scientists decided to see if they could find evidence for the existence of the Loch Ness monster. They took a research submarine down into the murky depths, scanning with sonar. The prehistoric creature was nowhere in sight, but a surprising discovery emerged: Thousands of golf balls litter the bottom of the loch, presumably because the place has been used as an unofficial driving range for years. I predict that you will soon experience a reverse version of this sequence, Pisces: You will go in search of your personal equivalent of lost golf balls—some trivial treasure—but on the way you will have a brush with a living myth.

JACK AND JILL In talking to some friends lately, I came across this scenario. Jack and Jill do not know each other but they both bought their homes 30 years ago here in Santa Cruz. Their stories begin in nearly identical fashion. Jack bought a little beach cottage near the water on the Westside for around $150,000. Jill purchased a small 3 bedroom more contemporary home on the Eastside for around the same price. Now they are both 65 and hoping to retire in the very near future. Jack will and Jill canʼt. Jack, aka Mr. Careful, always maintained a retirement savings program. From each paycheck he put 10% into his special account. He was a teacher so it took careful budgeting and cautious spending. It paid off for Jack, now his home is paid for and he has his savings and work related programs that ensure his retirement and is looking forward to traveling around Europe for a year with the rent he will procure from his home in his absence. After that, well, he has lots of plans. Jill, on the other hand, got swept up in refinancing her home several times throughout the years. At each re-fi, the clock went back to year one and another 30 year period. She also added an equity line when the getting was easy. Now she has a large mortgage to pay, a huge equity-line payment to make and with all the money she borrowed against her home, she has a very small equity position, her loan has 19 years to go and little chance for retirement for many years if ever, as she had no savings or retirement planning. However, she does have a very nice new car and she remodeled her entire home back in the days. The small amount she would receive from her home, if she sold it, would be quickly consumed. Now her only hope is to find some good roommates and share her home. Todayʼs buyers are in a different arena. It will take a long time before significant equity will build up. I would encourage anyone buying a property today to be very prudent and plan on paying off your mortgage completely, to not borrow against it, as it may be the only savings/retirement plan you have. If you pay off your mortgage by the age of 65 or so, and have a careful plan you can do it. If things get too hectic in later years with your home paid off you can take a reverse mortgage which should carry you through the “golden” years. If you have extra money, instead of the stock market consider purchasing a rental which breaks even, with a good down payment, and take a 20 year loan. We have historically low home prices and loan interest rates are at an all time low. After 20 years, your tenants have generously paid off your mortgage, now you have income coming in, your home paid for and you can enjoy your dotage with some reassurance.( If you can remember to.) Itʼs never too early or too late. Donʼt miss the train because the train keeps on going— get up there in first class or get left behind looking for a spot for your sleeping bag under the bridge on a cold and rainy day.
