Redneck Chronicles

Dennis Smith, 65, was arrested in Senoia, Ga., and charged with stealing dirt from the elderly widow of the man Smith said had given him permission to take it.

Smith, a “dirt broker,” had taken more than 180 dump-truck loads.

Second Amendment Follies A father, 43, and his son, 22, argued on April 9 about who would walk the dog at their home on Chicago’s South Side. They apparently thought to settle the issue with a gunfight, and police, who recovered the two weapons, said both men received multiple wounds. The son was killed, and the father was in critical condition.

Insufficient Remorse

Royce Atkins, 23, told the judge in Northampton County, Pa., in March that he was so sorry he did not stop his car in 2015 and help that 9-year-old boy he had just hit and killed. However, Atkins had earlier been jailhouse-recorded viciously trash-talking the boy’s family for “reacting like they’re the victims. What about my family? My family is the victim, too.”

Atkins got a four-year sentence.

Where’s The Partridge In A Pear Tree?

In February, a pet welfare organization complained of a raid on a home near Lockhart, Texas, that housed more than 400 animals, and, of course, reeked “overpowering(ly)” of urine. The inventory: 86 snakes, 56 guinea pigs, 28 dogs, 26 rabbits, 15 goats, 9 doves, 8 skinks, 7 pigs, 6 pigeons, 4 gerbils, 3 bearded dragons, 2 ducks and 1 tarantula, plus about 150 rats and mice to feed the menagerie and 20 other animals.

Legal Brief

An office in the New York City government, suspicious of a $5,000 payment to two men in the 2008 City Council election of Staten Island’s Debi Rose, opened an investigation, which at $300 an hour for the “special prosecutor,” has now cost the city $520,000, with his final bill still to come. Despite scant evidence and multiple opportunities to back off, the prosecutor relentlessly conducted months-long grand jury proceedings, fought several court appeals, had one 23-count indictment almost immediately crushed by judges, and enticed state and federal investigators to fruitlessly take on the Staten Island case. In March, the city’s Office of Court Administration finally shrugged and closed the case.

Cookie Monster

Oreos fans sampling the limited-edition Peeps Oreos in February expressed alarm that not only their tongues and saliva turned pink, but also their stools, leaving a pink ring in the bowl. A gastroenterologist told Live Science it was nothing to worry about.

Government in Action

Toronto, Ontario, Superior Court Justice Alex Pazaratz finally ridded his docket of the maddening, freeloading couple who had quibbled incessantly about each other’s “harassments.” Neither Noora Abdulaali, 32, nor her now-ex-husband, Kadhim Salih, 43, had worked a day in the five years since they immigrated from Iraq, having almost immediately gone on disability benefits and begun exploiting Legal Aid Toronto in their many attempts

Not if they’re funding cases like this.”

customers — and which were easily hackable, and controllable, by anyone nearby with a Bluetooth connection. The Illinois federal court limited the award to $199 for anyone who bought the vibrator but did not activate the app.

Wigging Out

Bright Idea

Convicted murderer Philip Smith, a veteran criminal serving life for killing the father of a boy Smith had been sexually abusing, escaped from prison in New Zealand with the help of a disguise that included a toupee for his bald head — before being caught. Prison officials confiscated the toupee, but Smith said a shiny head behind bars made him feel “belittled, degraded and humiliated” and sued for the right to keep the toupee. In March, in a rare case in which a litigant succeeds as his own lawyer, Smith prevailed in Auckland’s High Court.

Hum’s The Word

In March, vibrator customers were awarded up to $10,000 each in their class-action “invasion of privacy” lawsuit against the company Standard Innovation, whose We-Vibe model’s smartphone app collected intimate data, such as vibrator temperature and motor intensity, that could be associated with particular

In January, local government and sexual-assault critics unveiled a consciousness-raising exhibit on Mexico City’s trains: a plastic seat onto which are subtly molded the contours of a male body, except with genitals sharply exposed. Men supposedly have been spotted absentmindedly lowering themselves onto the seat only to leap up in shock. A note on the floor by the body read, in Spanish, “It’s uncomfortable to sit here, but that’s nothing compared to the sexual violence suffered by women on their commute.”

Ewwww!

Luu Cong Huyen, 58, in Yen Giao, Vietnam, is the most recent person to attract reporters’ attention with disturbingly long fingernails. A March OddityCentral.com report, with cringe-inducing photos, failed to disclose their precise length, but Huyen said he has not clipped them since a 2013 report on VietnamNet revealed that each measured up to 19.7 inches. Huyen

Hipsters on the Rise

The Columbia Room bar in Washington, D.C., recently introduced the “In Search of Time Past” cocktail — splashed with a tincture of old, musty books. Management vacuum-sealed pages with grapeseed oil, then “fat-washed” them with a “neutral high-proof” spirit, and added a vintage sherry, mushroom cordial and eucalyptus.

Weird Science

Human populations in Chile’s Atacama desert have apparently developed a tolerance for arsenic 100 times as powerful as the World Health Organization’s maximum safe level, according to recent research by University of Chile scientists.

School Dazed

College activist Pablo Gomez Jr., 22, was arrested in Berkeley, Calif., in March and charged with the brutal stabbing death of an elementary school teacher.

Gomez, a senior at University of California, Berkeley, is well-known on campus for insisting on a gender identity for which, as an example, the pronoun “he” is an inappropriate reference. Hence, “they” was charged with what is so far the only homicide in Berkeley this year.

RULES OF THE ENDGAME

M

y wife, Leigh, just had her first colonoscopy, and while everything checked out fine, there’s a nasty little secret about these routine procedures.

While much focus is directed toward the patient’s discomfort, the far greater hardship suffered by the spousal caregiver is often overlooked.

Just to review, a colonoscopy involves an intimate video probe under sedation to check for signs of colon cancer. Probes are marketed under various names including Captain Yowza’s Booty Buster, The Magic Monkey Fingers Butt Cam, ASSertive Andy and the Internal Revenue Service.

Barring extenuating risk factors, the procedure is recommended every 10 years starting at age 50. Most patients report that the colonoscopy itself isn’t painful, but many complain bitterly about the prep, which involves 30-plus hours of virtual fasting and producing massive quantities of pharmaceutically induced diarrhea.

The point of the prep is so when your physician looks at the video screen, he or she sees a colon as vast and empty as the Carrier Dome during a football home opener against the Motorcycle Mechanics Institute of Orlando.

OK, so now, let me tell you of my struggle. Things took a bad turn the morning of Fasting Day when I inno-

cently asked Leigh if she would care for a pancake. I won’t describe the unladylike gesture my wife directed at me, but let’s just say it wasn’t in Gandhi’s playbook.

Soon after came a pronouncement as she was packing up our daughter Lily’s lunch for school. “I think I just ate a noodle. I just popped it in my mouth without thinking. I’m not used to not eating.”

The blow-by-blow was just getting started. It wasn’t my colonoscopy. But it was my problem.

Leigh told me she was staying home all day to “conserve energy,” so I found excuses to stay far away.

“Why do you flee from me?” she asked mournfully by phone.

When I’d finally had enough homelessness, I returned home and learned that she had gone shopping at Trader Joe’s, and

that was a mistake because “everything looked so good.”

The anguish I endured next was unspeakable. The refrigerator and pantry were filled with tasty new snacks. Should I partake under the martyrish gaze of Leigh and risk starvation, or should I set aside my nutritional needs in solidarity with her? Initially, I selected the latter, but then I absent-mindedly opened a carton of Sardinian Parchment Crackers.

“These are really good!” I blurted.

Leigh’s face fell. You’d think I’d just told her I’m having an affair with Caitlyn Jenner.

The kitchen was so tense I egressed to the living room to watch ESPN. There, on the sofa, I luxuriated in a half-hour of peace until Leigh announced, in song, “Almost time to prep my bowels. Doo-dah.

Doo-dah.” Was there no escaping this nightmare?

Leigh did her best to maintain a sense of humor, even after she nearly gagged on her first gulp of “berry flavored” innards cleanser. Barely 30 minutes after forcing down the first 16-ounce dose and complaining with every swallow how disgusting it tasted, she announced, “I gotta go upstairs. The train’s a-coming.” Turns out we have high-speed rail in Central New York, after all.

Miranda, my eldest daughter, was at work. Lucky for her. But I still had to protect my youngest daughter from emotional trauma, so I whisked her out of the house at dinnertime. We were so rattled that we ended up at Chili’s, where any appetite we had was quickly snuffed out when we scanned the menu and encountered the “Quesadilla Explosion Salad.” Yuck.

I slept in the basement that night. The next morning was the eye of the storm.

Leigh was in reasonably good spirits, despite not even being able to drink water since midnight. She was even chatty as I drove her to her appointment in Fayetteville. Of course, I was sorely inconvenienced as I waited — and waited — for her to recover from the anesthesia. Once again, who gives a damn about the caregiver? No one.

A nurse told her not to drive, drink alcohol or make major decisions until the next day. Good advice. When it was finally time to break her fast, a “crampy” and complaining Leigh couldn’t even decide whether she wanted soup or salad for her You Pick Two at Panera. Must I do everything?

Well, guess what? Leigh will be feeling my pain soon enough.

My colonoscopy is May 11. The Payback Train’s a-comin’. SNT

I lost 85 lbs. and found my strength and spirit.

Overweight with diabetes, Nerissa wanted to get — and stay — healthy to be around for her young son.

THINGS THAT MATTER

By Luke Parsnow

TRUMP’S TAX INACTION LEADS TO LEGISLATIVE ACTION

U

.S. Treasury Secretary Steve Mnuchin all but confirmed to all of us last week that President Donald Trump would never be publicly releasing his tax returns, which every president and most presidential candidates have done for more than 40 years.

“The president has no intention,” Mnuchin said at a press conference, of releasing his returns. “The president has released plenty of information and I think has given more financial disclosure than anybody else.”

What?

So, Mnuchin is going to stand there and tell us that Trump isn’t going to follow one of the norms of presidential transparency, one that Trump promised on multiple occasions he would comply with during the campaign, and then say the administration has given more information than anybody else?

Clearly, the fact that Trump hasn’t released his returns disqualifies him from coming even close to that claim. But it’s not just about a campaign promise anymore.

Without Trump’s tax returns, we have absolutely no idea how much he makes; how much he pays in taxes; whether he has foreign bank accounts or pays taxes to governments abroad; or, most importantly, if his proposed sweeping tax reform legislation would financially benefit him or his business empire, and if so, by how much.

It’s clear by now he’s never going to release them willingly.

And there is no statute requiring him to do so. That needs to change. And there are those who want to make that change.

Several downstate Democrats in the New York state Legisla-

6

5.3.17 - 5.9.17 | syracusenewtimes.com

ture introduced a bill last week that would require the Department of Taxation and Finance to release five years of state tax returns of major elected officials who file in New York. That would include not only Trump, as it is his home state, but Gov. Andrew Cuomo, Lt. Gov. Kathy Hochul, Attorney General Eric Schneiderman, state Comptroller Tom DiNapoli and New York’s two U.S. senators, Chuck Schumer and Kirsten Gillibrand.

Minus Trump, all of them have voluntarily made their 2016 returns public in recent weeks.

Under this bill, the Department of Taxation and Finance would have 30 days to post state returns from anyone holding either of those high offices. We would only be provided with state returns, as federal returns are protected for privacy by law. We would know more with Trump’s federal returns, but the state returns would still give us a lot of specifics we don’t know, including salary, dividends, capital gains and rental real estate income.

The bill wouldn’t apply to state lawmakers, but the four Democrats who introduced it all said they would be willing to release theirs if they had to. And that may not be so bad an idea, either.

It is sad that we have to come to this. After the embarrassment of the Watergate scandal and numerous reminders of a hyper-secretive federal government since then, high-ranking public officials releasing their tax information has gone without

saying. We haven’t needed to require it because lawmakers know releasing them is the right thing to do, both morally and politically.

Trump has changed that. And his continued battle to keep his returns secret is all the more reason they need to be seen.

Sadly, this legislation is unlikely to make it through Albany. State Senate Republicans have already voiced their opposition, with Senate GOP spokesman Scott Reif suggesting the bill “sounds like a P.R. stunt.” But Republicans would more than likely feel the same way right now if a Democratic president or governor wasn’t making his or her returns public.

Which after Trump, is a distinct possibility. Once a precedent is broken with no consequences, it’s difficult to continue it.

So there’s absolutely no reason for Republicans to oppose such a measure.

However, it’s clearly what constituents want. A Bloomberg/Morning Consult poll found 53 percent of voters say Trump should be forced to release his tax returns, 51 percent say Trump’s taxes are either very or somewhat important to them and 45 percent say Trump’s taxes are relevant to his job in the White House.

Of course, not all future presidents will come from New York. Trump is the first president since Franklin Roosevelt to do so. Luckily, other states are introducing similar legislation of their own. Bills in Hawaii, California, Massachusetts, New Mexico and 15 other states would require anyone running for president to release the previous five years of returns in order to appear on the ballot. However, the success of most of those bills becoming law is a long shot.

And that is disappointing. We would hope that our representatives in Albany would not only require transparency from any president from any party, but demand it. We have the right to know if our commander-in-chief has conflicts of interest with foreign nations that may put our national security at risk. We have the right to know if our president is using the most powerful office in the world as a way to fill his own pockets.

And we shouldn’t assume Trump is, either. But until we see his tax returns, we don’t have a reason to assume he isn’t.

That uncertainty will surely plague Trump as long as he holds the office. Our state legislators in Albany have the ability, and arguably, the responsibility to put that uncertainty to rest. They should take advantage of the opportunity. SNT

uring Syracuse’s pro-Trump rally Saturday, April 30, a little boy walked on to Erie Boulevard East at Onondaga County Republican Headquarters. “That’s why we gotta build walls: prime example,” Donald Trump impersonator Corey Kinsella said as a woman warned the boy about traffic. “I love the little people, so many little people who support me,” the impersonator said with a pretty convincing Trump (and Alec Baldwin) delivery.

“We’re thrilled and excited by all Trump has accomplished,” said Randy Potter, regional director for Central New Yorkers for Trump, which organized the event to mark the 100th day of Trump’s presidency.

Among Trump’s successes, according to Potter: strengthening the United States’ world leadership, standing up to Syria after the chemical attack, and starting his promised wall between the United States and Mexico.

Potter conceded that Trump “didn’t get the money” yet to build the wall, but he said the president had clear plans for the project.

“The first health care bill was not too great,” he added. “I think the next will pass.” But his faith in Trump “is firm,” he said.

“Folks know Trump means business.”

Sue Falco of Syracuse agreed that Trump “is doing an amazing job.” He “gives me hope that no matter what happens, you can be successful even if many people are against you,” she said.

The press and Congress are “totally against him” she said.

Falco’s top issue? “I love that he supports women and pays

women equal pay and listens to Ivanka on women’s issues like daycare,” she said.

She also said the recording in which Trump bragged about forcing himself on women has been taken out of context. “He appeared to be talking about women who allow people to treat them like that,” she said. “To say he doesn’t support women is ridiculous.”

Potter put the Republican headquarters crowd at 50; the Syracuse New Times counted no more than 25 people protesting between 10 and 11 a.m. He’s not impressed by the large turnouts at recent anti-Trump events. “Are they energized? Perhaps,” he said.

“Their decibel level is very high. We are the silent majority.”

About the same time, hundreds of people were lining up in Syracuse’s Franklin Square for the People’s Climate March. The local event was among 250 marches worldwide in response to Trump’s proposals to cut climate change programs, roll back environmental regulations and cut programs and staff at the Environmental Protection Agency.

More than 1,000 people marched, according to organizers who used clickers to count participants. Later, about 600 listened to speeches and music or visited exhibits, vendors and food trucks at the Inner Harbor. “Climate change is not a hoax,” marchers chanted.

“This administration has taken many steps backward on mitigating climate change,” said Kim Alexander, a conservation biologist.

She hesitated before identifying herself.

A native of Jamaica, she became a citizen last month and fears that Trump’s rhetoric and policies on immigrants could harm her family. “It’s been very difficult since the election,” she said. “There’s so much racism.”

Timothy Joseph came to the march with his daughter, wife and sister. “I didn’t vote for Hillary (Clinton), but I don’t like Trump, either,” he said. Joseph runs a cattle farm in Weedsport.

“I certainly don’t want him opening up the national parks and monuments for drilling,” Joseph said. “It pulls a lot of chemicals out of the Earth.” Besides, he added, “I just love big old trees.”

He and his 11-year-old daughter, Eva, are planning a monthlong trip this summer to visit national parks. She’s very concerned about the environment. “I want the world to be good for my children and grandchildren,” she said.

Freida Jacques, an Onondaga Nation clan mother, thanked the crowd for their concern for cleaning up the Earth. “All of life is dependent on fresh water, and if it goes away we’re in big trouble,” she said.

“Climate change might be the biggest threat to the planet,” said Peter F. Cannavò, a Hamilton College professor who directs the school’s environmental studies

BREWS NEWS YOU CAN USE

There are lots of reasons to be excited about the opening of the Good Nature Farm Brewery in Hamilton. For starters, the farm brewery brings the production of Good Nature beers and the pleasure of enjoying them under one roof. Brewery tours will be offered eventually and the outdoor beer garden promises to be a great place to kick back this summer and have a super-fresh cold one.

Hungry? There’s a locavore restaurant on site, and a chef on board with a passion for farm-driven ingredients. It’s a perfect match for a craft brewery with a mission

to brew “farm to glass’’ beers, made with as many local ingredients as possible.

Alicyn Hart, best known for her eightyear run as chef and co-owner of Circa New American Bistro and Market in Cazenovia, leads the culinary team. The brewery has a small open kitchen with a wood-fired oven and seating for more than 80 people inside and considerably more outside as summer weather and temperatures arrive. Good Nature co-founder Carrie Blackmore describes the outdoor area as a fenced beer garden, where long picnic tables will be set up for guests to enjoy a beer and a snack or meal and play lawn games.

The tap room and restaurant opened April 20, and Hart says things are running smoothly. The menu is short and sweet, featuring “shareable’’ items like a meat and cheese platter; wood-fired flatbread pizzas; hand-cut fries with your choice of condiments such as hoppy beer mustard, American Brown Ale gravy and bourbon maple ketchup; grilled cheese sandwiches starring Jewett’s cheddar, Two Kids Goat Farm chevre and Utica Bread; and a couple salads. Food is ordered and picked up at the bar.

Check the Good Nature website and Facebook page for updates to the menu. It changes a bit from week to week, depend-

ing on the availability of ingredients. Last week, for example, Connecticut clams steamed in Good Nature’s Blight Buster IPA and swirled with Kriemhild Dairy butter took the place of Prince Edward Island mussels on the menu. Ramps are in season so Hart and company added on a wild ramp and walnut pesto flatbread pizza, topped with gold bar zucchini, Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese and a farm egg. And the salad options expanded to include an Asian Slaw, with shredded red cabbage, pickled Asian radishes and pea shoots, tossed with a sesame chive vinaigrette.

As the weather warms, Hart will have a bounty of herbs and produce grown on site to work with. The Good Nature property, formerly owned by Colgate University, is home to the Colgate Community Garden. The garden will also supply produce to be used in beers.

The Good Nature Farm Brewery, 1727 State Route 12B, Hamilton, is open Thursdays through Sundays, 11:30 a.m. to 10 p.m. The kitchen closes at 9 p.m.

The Good Nature Tap Room, 8 Broad St., is open Tuesdays through Thursdays, 3 to 11 p.m.; Fridays, 3 p.m. to midnight; and Saturdays, noon to midnight. The downtown tap room doesn’t offer food, but visitors can order takeout food from neighboring restaurants. For information, call (315) 824-2337 or visit goodnature brewing.com/home.

Humble Beginnings For New Brewery

Over in Nelson, a few miles east of Cazenovia, Humble Harvest Brewing will have its grand opening on Saturday, May 6, 2 to 8 p.m.

CRUNCH STILL IN CONTENTION FOR CALDER CUP GLORY The Syracuse Crunch hockey team will continue its quest for its first Calder Cup championship this weekend, when the Crunch hosts the Toronto Marlies in the first two games of the American Hockey League North Division final playoff series.

The Crunch, the AHL affiliate of the Tampa Bay Lightning, advanced to the division final by defeating the St. John’s IceCaps 3-1 in the best-offive North Division semifinal series.

In the decisive fourth game April 28, Syracuse’s Gabriel Dumont scored the game-winner in overtime — his first goal since Dec. 30 — and goaltender Mike McKenna recorded 26 saves for his third win in the playoffs.

Syracuse, the North Division champions with 90 points, will host the Marlies on Friday, May 5, and Saturday, May 6, 7 p.m., at the Onondaga County War Memorial Arena. The middle three games will be played in Toronto May 9,

10 and 13, with the final two games, if necessary, May 15 and 17 in Syracuse.

The Marlies finished second in the North Division, just one point behind Syracuse. If the Crunch wins this series it will advance to the Eastern Conference finals — one step away from the Calder Cup finals.

The Crunch, which re-entered the AHL in 1994, has never won the Calder Cup, the AHL’s version of the Stanley Cup. The Crunch reached the Calder Cup finals in 2013 but lost in six games to Grand Rapids.

Single-game tickets for the playoffs can be purchased in person at the Crunch office located inside the War Memorial Arena, 800 S. State St., by calling the office at (315) 473-4444, or through Ticketmaster. SNT

Orange Men’s Lax Falls In ACC Semifinals The No. 1 Syracuse men’s lacrosse team nearly overcame a nine-goal halftime deficit to No. 18 North Carolina April 28 before falling 16-15 to the defending national champions in the ACC Tournament semifinals on the Tar Heels’ home field in Durham, N.C. The Orange is 11-2, with 10 of its 13 games decided by one goal and three of its wins in overtime. Syracuse will conclude its regular season Saturday, May 6, by

facing Colgate (5-8) in Hamilton.

The Orange remains a lock for a NCAA Tournament bid and will likely host a firstround game at the Carrier Dome.

The 10th-ranked Syracuse women’s lacrosse team reached the ACC Tournament championship game before losing 18-11 to No. 3 North Carolina April 30 in Richmond, Va. The Orange (15-6) will learn its fate in the NCAA Tournament when the bracket is announced Sunday, May 7. SNT

Syracuse’s favorite comic writer chats about why he loves Free Comic Book Day

L

ongtime Syracuse New Times readers still recall laughing at the outrageous comic strip Sideshow, the satiric weekly panel written and drawn by Tom Peyer from 1978 to 1990.

The strip, which featured random gags devoted to President Ronald Reagan, the cat of Syracuse Mayor Lee Alexander and radio stations airing an all-REO Speedwagon playlist, led to a friendship with Ithaca-based comic writer Roger Stern, known for his work on Marvel’s Spider-Man and DC’s Superman series. Thanks to Stern’s industry connections, Peyer left the Salt City in 1990 for a three-year gig with DC Comics as an assistant editor, followed by a long career as a comic-book freelancer in his hometown, with credits that stretch from The Atom to The Simpsons.

Peyer bangs out these four-color sagas on his keyboard inside his spartan downtown office, with multicolored Post-It reminder notes stuck to a wall to steer him regarding future projects. “I’ve been known to juggle four or five stories in a month,” he said, and one of those stories was the recent five-issue run of Captain Kid, co-written with Mark Waid and penciled by Wilfredo Torres for AfterShock Comics. Since AfterShock is an independent publisher, Peyer had the freedom to throw in some swear words for the adventures of a melancholy

5.3.17 - 5.9.17 | syracusenewtimes.com

By Bill DeLapp middle-aged sad sack who has the power to transform himself into a teen superhero.

For those who haven’t snapped up the issues, there will be a Captain Kid hardcover collection debuting June 7.

And for those who want to meet Peyer in person, he’ll be hobnobbing alongside wrestler Sergeant Slaughter and iconic artist Neal Adams at the Salt City Comic-Con on June 24 and 25 at the Pirro Convention Center. And he’ll certainly be venturing out for Free Comic Book Day, slated for Saturday, May 6, at area comic shops.

What is the first comic book you can recall reading?

Superman No. 140 from 1960. It was a story called “The Son of Bizarro,” in which the imperfect duplicate of Superman known as Bizarro No. 1 and his wife, Bizarro Lois Lane No. 1, have a kid and it comes out human. They actually send the kid to Earth because they can’t have a human in Bizarro World, where everything is the opposite of all earthly things: They hate beauty and love ugliness. It’s a big crime to be perfect in Bizarro World, so the kid would be miserable there.

So it’s a really tragic story by writer Otto Binder and artist Wayne Boring about a family giving up its baby, and it ends up in an orphanage where Supergirl lives and she takes care of him. It takes some twists and turns but, in the end, the baby becomes a Bizarro and gets back with his parents.

This story must have blown you away at age 6.

It did blow me away (laughs), and I still re-read it from time to time. It has so many of these fraught family issues, and it was dramatic. It would not be overstating to say that Superman No. 140 wrecked my life.

Where did you buy comic books during your wonder years?

Back then I lived on the West End, around Avery Avenue and West Genesee Street. So there was a Daws Drug Store in the Westvale Shopping Plaza, where I would pester the clerk for the new comics; he was really annoyed by me. (Laughs.) There was the G.C. Murphy chain department store in Fairmount Fair that sold comics. W.T. Grants in downtown had the biggest selection of anybody. And then, of course, the basement of the Economy Book Store, with the coverless comics.

There was also Wally’s Smoke Shop and the downtown Woolworth’s. For me, a drugstore wasn’t really a drugstore unless it sold comics. So Fay’s Drugs wasn’t a drugstore to me, but Carl’s Drugs and Daws were.

Comics were the essential drug! I went to Wally’s, too, and I remember as a teenager buying the first DC Comics 100-Page Spectacular for 50 cents. And there was an

old guy with a cigar behind the counter who looked at it and said, “Fifty cents!

They’re gonna price themselves right out of business!”

Were you a DC or Marvel Comics loyalist, or did it even matter?

I never understood people who felt they had to choose. I really liked the differences between the two. I started with DC, and I liked Marvel Comics a lot because of their flashiness, but nothing would ever make me give up DC’s Batman and Superman.

It was a great time to read comics. And they were cheap; you didn’t have to take care of them. You could roll them up and put them in your pocket. A kid from a poorer-than-average family could afford to read all the Marvel or DC comics each month.

Did schoolteachers ever take comics away from you?

They certainly knew to check me out for them if they were against comics. In grammar school when we were done with end-of-year exams, we could bring in comics to read. I felt like a king!

How can you keep track of all the superheroes, their super powers and their secret identities in the various comics universes?

When you’re a kid and you’re reading comics for sheer pleasure, it’s easy. But when you’re writing comics, you really depend that there is someone (in the editing phase) who will notice that you have made a mistake before it is too late.

Do you watch all the comic-related TV series and movies?

I’m more of a completist with the movies.

But (director Zack Snyder’s 2013 Superman reboot) Man of Steel was horrible!

When I walked out, I felt my guts had been ripped out, that feeling in your stomach when somebody dies. I said at the time that it was a Superman movie made by people who hate Superman. The guy who made Man of Steel and Batman Vs. Superman: Dawn of Justice (2016) wants to make a movie based on Ayn Rand’s The Fountainhead, which explains a lot. (Laughs.)

It’s a little harder to keep up with all the TV shows. I like actress Melissa Benoist, who plays the lead in Supergirl; she brings some of the Christopher Reeve magic to the show. But they’re all basically good shows, certainly better than anything that was on when I was a kid.

For the five-issue run of Captain Kid, what were your deadlines to make the publishing dates?

Usually it’s about four or five months before it becomes a comic book when I start writing it. The turnaround time is a lot quicker than it used to be, because the jobs that have to be done on the back end, like coloring and lettering, are done faster because of computers.

Lettering, in particular, would be somebody with special pens and dip bottles of

ink that would make perfect letters by hand. They were like monks. Now it’s all keyboarding, although there is still artistry to it, with the placement of copy and the font designs.

Were the plots for all five Captain Kid issues mapped out in your head?

The way I like to work is some of it is mapped out, and some of it isn’t. Because if it is all mapped out, all I’m going to communicate as I write the scripts is my boredom. So you have to leave some room for serendipity, because sometimes you get your best ideas when half of it is already written.

Explain the working relationship you have with Mark Waid, who co-wrote the Captain Kid series.

We have written a lot together for 20-plus years, kibitzing on each other’s stories. We are the Ferrante and Teicher of comic-book writers, only we’re not side by side next to pianos and wearing tuxedos. (Laughs.)

He’s based in Los Angeles, and even if we’re not working together, we always call each other and talk through our stories to make sure they hold together. Sometimes it’s hard to come up with something for your story but really easy to come up with something for somebody else’s story because your ego’s not in that story.

How close do you work with the artists and letterers?

Everything depends on the individual job, and it can go any number of ways.

I’ve written stories where I’ve been on the phone with the artist a lot, and I’ve written stories where I have never talked to them. If it’s a long-term job, you try to make some kind of relationship with them, so you can keep writing things that the artists are interested in drawing.

If they love drawing science-fiction machines, you don’t want to make them draw horses.

Has comic readership changed over the years?

Comics over the last few years have been a real magnet for sensitive artistic young people of all ages, races and sexualities.

There’s a real overlap between comics and what some people call identity politics.

At comic conventions, I like seeing all the people having a good time, dressing up (in superhero costumes), and bringing their kids and seeing them ooohhing and aaahhing.

And what is your favorite sound effect?

I gotta go with “Pow!” I think “Pow!” is so assertive: It’s a punch. It’s the one sound effect that all the others spring from.

It used to really bother me on the old Adam West Batman TV series when someone got punched and the sound effect would be “Zap!” That sound effect comes from a ray gun! SNT

Free Comic Book Day

S

ince 2002, Free Comic Book Day has taken place on the first Saturday in May, luring kids of all ages with the promise of freebie favorites. Hollywood usually gets on the bandwagon by releasing a superhero flick on the same weekend, which explains why the anticipated sequel Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 is hitting the multiplexes.

So on Saturday, May 6, expect more than 50 special issues featuring the adventures of Wonder Woman, SpongeBob SquarePants, Doctor Who, Archie and the Riverdale gang and many more.

Area stores include the Comix Zone, 628 S. Main St., North Syracuse; Larger Than Life, Great Northern Mall, Clay; Cloud City, Shoppingtown, DeWitt; and Play the Game, Read the Story’s two locations, Destiny USA and 689 N. Clinton St. Syracuse-based comic-book writer Tom Peyer has nothing but praise for Free Comic Book Day: “It’s a busy day at the stores, and a great day for parents to bring their kids and let them see what

the whole thing is about. And there’s always somebody in the store who is discovering comics for the first time and they’re excited about it. It’s always great to be around that.”

STAGE

By Christopher Malone

FROM CORTLAND TO CALIFORNIA WITH COMIC PAUL KOZLOWSKI

P

aul Kozlowski may not be a household name. He’s not a spotlight kind of guy except when on stage spouting jokes through a graying full-bodied beard. “I’ll be the guy who looks like Ernest Hemingway but without the shotgun in his mouth,” he said during a recent phone conversation.

On Friday, May 5, 8 p.m., Kozlowski will be part of a fundraising comedy event at the State Theatre, 107 W. State St., Ithaca. The benefit to raise money for refugee settlement will feature headliner Eman Morgan and fellow comics Kelsey Claire Hagen, Kenneth McLaurin and Francisco Ruben Arce. Tickets are $22, available at stateofithaca.com or by calling (607) 277-8283.

Kozlowski recently created the comedy website Syriously.net. This collaborative effort with other comics throughout upstate New York will be part-directory and part-content creation.

In this conversation, the Cortland-born comic chatted about show business, friendships with Bobcat Goldthwait and Tom Kenny, his love for Central New York and the local comedians who enrich this entertainment niche.

How has it been going since your return?

I’ve been back for a couple years now, but I’d been away since 1979. I’ve been living in different cities but came home for holidays. It’s good to come back, and it’s a nice break to get to the countryside.

It’s nice here. I returned to help take care of my mom. She’d gotten sick and ended

5.3.17 - 5.9.17 | syracusenewtimes.com

up passing away a few months ago.

I kind of liked living in New York City, Boston and Chicago. Los Angeles can be a little grating. If you’re working and doing really well, it’s great. I was doing alright, but I’ve never been a city person.

It’s a little gritty, a little Wild Westy.

About 13 years ago, I moved back to LA, because I was doing this sports show for Fox. I didn’t know anything about sports, so it was perfect. Immediately after I moved there, it got canceled.

But I’d always wanted to open up a performance space. That part was a huge headache, and performance spaces in LA are kind of cliquey. Instead for a dozen years I owned an art gallery and apartment space in a semi-funky area.

When living in New York City, my apartment had boxes filled with lighting equipment. A friend of mine worked at this mannequin factory that went bankrupt. They said take whatever you want.

It was called The Fake Gallery, because they were paintings that were made to look almost exactly like art. I started painting these really tiny pictures of giant landscapes. I screwed around with painting around the same time I started writing for television, because everything you write goes into the meat grinder. I appreciated having a singular vision. No jokes involved, but they started selling.

There was a whole wall of color swatches with made-up names. Cartoon Network had bought several of them for their headquarters. I’d also put out fake signs like “Johnson’s Turnip Pound,” and people would come in and ask if I had turnips.

I just had a variety of people from all over coming in and doing stuff. Maria Bamford and Patton Oswalt had residencies in the studio. They would work on their material for their albums. It was amazing to watch and listen to. I lived in the back, so it was cool to have comedy right there. I managed the place, booked shows and stayed out of the way as they did their thing.

There were also a lot of stray dogs. I kept grabbing them, and finally I needed to find a place where they could run around. Dogs and comedians: I collect and take care of them. Dogs are fantastically magnificent beings, and so are comedians.

I kind of hated to leave, but it’s good to get out while you’re ahead.

What was it like writing for notable comedians?

I gave up stand-up comedy and instead wrote for shows, including Chris Rock, Ellen DeGeneres, John Leguizamo. It’s way better than being on the road. When I

stopped it was when comedy died the first time in the 1990s. A bunch of comedy clubs closed and it kind of got lame.

I was writing for Ellen DeGeneres.

When I first started, I was told to not engage her or look her in the eye. I went the whole season, writing in her voice and never speaking to her. It got to the point where I wanted to go the whole season without her talking to me. I did. It was so weird, but her checks cleared.

Writing for Dave Attell was great. He came up with some of the most amazing stuff I’d ever seen. I’d write down the ideas. Ten minutes later, he’d hate it, come up with something just as brilliant. But then hate that. It was for this failed reboot of The Gong Show. He was just so miserable. I think that’s why he’s so hilarious.

He’s self-loathing, and there’s no ego. Ego kills comedy and every art.

I’ve never had a Hollywood meeting that wasn’t skin-crawling. I remember meeting (Saturday Night Live producer) Lorne Michaels and sitting there, suffocating. He was pontificating about all that he’s done.

I had a meeting with the MadTV guys, all I could think about was the dead fly in between the window and the screen. That’s me. That ego, when it gets to that level, is just so “ugh.”

People can tell when you’re faking. I’m not very good at covering it up. That’s why I thought doing my own thing on the internet is the way to go. Thankfully it’s a thing now. That’s why people like Jimmy Dore and Eddie Pepitone are thriving.

They’re doing their own thing, and no one is telling them how to do it.

It’s easier to work with your friends or with a team working toward a collaborative effort, removing the ego from it and making the best show possible. I worked with Stephen Colbert and Amy Sedaris on the sketch show Exit 57. Those guys were amazing to work with, and it was a blast. I stayed out of their way as a writer for both seasons. It was a lot of watching.

Colbert is such a nice guy, very Tom Kenny-like. They have this whole moral thing, perhaps coming from Catholic backgrounds. I really connected with Amy Sedaris. Her brother (David) was always on the set, not as a cast member but hanging out. It wasn’t until after that I learned they lived in Cortland at one point.

The best person to write with was Kenny, because we worked together for so long. His brain is directly wired to his mouth. It’s amazing.

Talk about your friendships with Bob Goldthwait and Tom Kenny.

One time I went to the haunted house at

the New York State Fairgrounds. I remember these wiseass guys fucking with me.

Years later, I found out it was Kenny and Goldthwait. While seeing George Carlin at the Landmark Theatre, there were these two loud goofballs in front of me. Come to find out years later it was them. It’s like one of those movies where the characters keep meeting.

I didn’t meet Goldthwait and Kenny until Boston. We left because there wasn’t anything. We kept almost crossing paths.

They were doing comedy in Skaneateles.

If I’d known about it, I’d hitchhike there.

There really wasn’t any place to perform in Cortland. So I was in Boston for about an hour before I met Goldthwait. Kenny was still in Syracuse, but the moment he moved to Boston we were in a sketch group called Uncle Stinky’s Ditzy Doodle Revue.

I met Barry Crimmins around the same time. He’s a monster now. Like bands, he’s huge in Europe. He’s like a god. Last year Crimmins started back up doing comedy, and he asked me to open for him. Goldthwait made the Call Me Lucky documentary about him. I thought about it, because I had not done standup comedy in so long but decided what the hell.

It helped me find out there is so much comedy going on in upstate New York.

It’s an amazing scene. I started out in Chicago and then moved to Boston during the heyday with Kenny, Goldthwait, Steven Wright and all these guys. I’ve been around all these scenes, and the upstate scene rivals all of those places.

These guys are young and don’t know it, because of their age. The scene’s blossoming is very seductive.

Goldthwait made the mistake of putting us in a lot of his movies. There was one day where Kenny and I were on the set of Shakes the Clown. We were in the background, and we were such dicks.

We didn’t understand deep-focus lenses.

You could clearly see us in the background, and for every take we were looking into the camera and waving, blowing hot dogs. We forgot about that moment until Kenny brought it up a while later.

Goldthwait talked about editing it for about three days straight. He spent hours trying to edit us out of that scene to the point where he said he broke down crying and then started laughing. He’s smartened up and has not put us in his movies.

We’d meet at this place, Sam’s, a bar where we all hung out. Shakes was kind of based on this bar where all the clowns hung out. It was like those war movies, where the guys are hanging out before they go off to battle. We’d commiserate and then go out and face our fate.

You mentioned comedy had died.

Why is that?

Stand-up comedy picked up in the 1980s.

Goldthwait, Kenny and I were rejects, but comedy was our only avenue to come into the scene. Eventually it got popular, everyone started doing it. The quality of comedy got watered down, because people who really were not that funny got in. They’re the guys who always hung out and talked with the club owners.

There are a lot of different theories. A lot of people think it was because of the number of comedy shows on television, like MadTV, Evening at the Improv and Caroline’s Comedy Hour. It was constant, and I think people had enough.

But you love the comedy scene up here.

It seems like there is a critical mass.

You need enough good guys. It’s similar to the grunge scene in Seattle. It’s kind of isolated up here, its own original thing.

I would have totally missed it if I didn’t come back.

I think part of the reason is the economy sucks; the comics are working three jobs

and they’re still living in their parents’ basements. It’s the same thing we experienced in the 1980s. They’re compelled to do comedy.

I was talking with Patton Oswalt about this, and it might be a generational thing.

Comedy has gotten good again, because it’s very difficult again. It’s really smart and not just these frat guys on stage. It should really get good now, especially with this whole Trump thing.

Syracuse, I think, has the best scene.

Ithaca, Binghamton, Rochester, Watertown and Utica have some great people.

And they travel between all of these places. There are all these original people.

It’s like when water boils, these molecules bounce off one another.

The shows are really solid shows. Many have a good five-, 10- or 15-minute set.

They’re not 45-minute headliners yet, but when you have eight comedians to a show, it adds up.

Steve Rodgers, Abdul Hadi, R.J. McCarthy and Justin Jackson are really funny and example-setters. I went on a road trip to Oswego with McCarty and Jackson.

It was like a flashback to 1981, talking about comics, why they suck or why they’re so good.

The one thing missing from Syracuse is a real comedy club. George O’Dea’s is one of the best places. Funny Bone in the mall is more of a corporate thing.

They’re not as local-friendly as they could be. They turn shows into competitions, and some people get 30 or more of their friends to show up. It’s not really a competition. I was told that I’m too old to perform there.

There isn’t an age limit on the internet.

You can put everything out there for everyone to see. I’ve learned a lot with trying to build websites and edit video. I want everything to be snappy and professional. The main thing is to create awareness.

I’m very happy Goldthwait agreed to be featured on the website. The interview can be found online.

Syriously.net is a place where comedians can promote themselves, add their own content or collaborate with others and allow people to see what this is all about. And it gives me a chance to mentor.

It’s something I’ve always wanted to do.

Is there anything you’ve been working on?

I’ve been working on a show: Larry the Groundhog Show. It’s a Pee-Wee’s Playhouse kind of thing.

When I worked at MTV, Pepsi wanted to do a Groundhog Day thing. Think about a groundhog being a student and waking up after a bender. Pizza boxes are everywhere. Roots are coming from the ceiling.

They designed this groundhog costume for me, but they pulled out at the last minute. I kept the groundhog costume. SNT

STAGE

By James MacKillop Alexander Thomas in Kitchen Theatre’s Throw Pitchfork. Dave Burbank photo

ALEXANDER THOMAS’ ONE-MAN SHOW KEEPS IT ALL IN THE FAMILY

W

hen an actor writes a one-man show for himself to perform, you can expect he will find means to express his versatility and strengths. When that show is also autobiographical, the actor can immediately answer Stanislavsky’s question about emotional memory. To make that show a drama, he has to lay off the successes but emphasize the conflicts.

Therefore you can expect that Alexander Thomas’ Throw Pitchfork (now at Ithaca’s Kitchen Theatre Company through Sunday, May 7) would be gripping with many rapid changes of tone and mood. The surprise is that the 75-minute one-act would offer so many moments of gut-deep hilarity.

Thomas is an African-American professional performer who has appeared often at the Kitchen, despite living now in Berlin, Germany. He has credits from all over western Europe (such as being directed by Steven Berkoff at London’s Haymarket) and was memorable in Ithaca as the wary cellist in Michael Hollinger’s string quartet comedy Solo (October 2012). His Throw Pitchfork came first to the Kitchen in 2002, immediately after its off-Broadway debut, and has since been produced everywhere.

Action begins with harsh aggressions by an older black man surrounded by barking dogs. We perceive slowly that this is the author’s father, Willie, a man given to violent rages. It does not take long to get to the explanation of the title when a drunken Willie throws an actual pitchfork with lethal intent.

As so many actors are sensitive artistic sorts, our default expectation is that we are going so see youth defined by conflict with age. Not to be. This is not a Victorian novel but rather a stage work composed in the 21st century. Thomas never proceeds chronologically or in any straight line but instead goes

5.3.17 - 5.9.17 | syracusenewtimes.com

from theme to theme, often with quicksilver changes of voice and body set. He expects we will retain little units of information until we can place them next to larger insights.

Terrified as the playwright-as-child might have been of his father, the adult sees the whole man as a victim of Jim Crow Alabama. The boy Willie was wrongly accused of a crime but convicted with trumped-up circumstantial evidence and given a long prison sentence. There he becomes a dog-tender, one of the reasons the playwright associates his voice with barking. He fathers four sons, Sammy, Jesse, Cleve and Alex, the youngest, who take the family name, Thomas, of their mother. In speaking of his incarceration, Willie says, “Alabama took away my name.”

In a transition never examined, the family migrates north, and Alex is raised around Albany, N.Y. Actor Thomas likes to portray the wide-eyed, guileless Alex, often juxtaposed with a tough-talking adult. The child Alex looks forward to a bus ride that will return the family to the South and another city named Albany, this one in Georgia. He marvels at the magnificence of a public toilet in a bus station and then encounters segregation, “Colored Only,” for the first time. Tendentiousness is not his point. Instead, the playwright is reminding us that he never suffered that daily brutality his father endured as routine. It allows him to aspire.

Even in the North, some of Willie’s self-hatred descends to his children. Sammy drifts into hard drugs and chaos. For Jesse it is unrewarding petty crime. These brothers are not examined closely but instead are seen as bullies tormenting the sensitive third brother, Cleve. If one were to tape-record Throw Pitchfork it would show more time devoted to Cleve — never Cleveland — than Alex, the author.

He’s the one who overthrows Willie’s heritage of violence and failure.

It is the task of Alex Thomas the actor to portray young Cleve as a clear head in an uncongenial environment. Not a sissy, but different. He likes to read and behaves in school, even when teachers refuse to recognize his name. Sammy, Jesse and others think such behavior is acting white or, worse, looking queer. Eventually, long before gay rights support groups existed, Cleve comes out and stands up for himself.

In his subtlest portrayals actor Alex Thomas depicts himself and the youthful Cleve in conversation. The aspiring actor is becoming careful about diction and pronunciation, but the gay brother is just a measure more precise and confident. We always know who is whom.

Sara Lampert Hoover proves a deft director in handing playwright Thomas’ language, which feels like James Joyce meets Def Poetry Jam. She keeps actor Thomas in motion on the bare set by Tyler M. Perry, almost like a tennis player volleying for all parts of the court. This impressive production of Throw Pitchfork explains why Alexander Thomas is one of the Kitchen Theatre’s favorite actor-playwrights. SNT

sorry for sharks that yell for help. Beware of trusting coyotes that act like sheep and sheep that act like coyotes. Beware of nibbling food from jars whose contents are different from what their labels suggest. But wait! “Beware” is not my only message for you. I have these additional announcements: Welcome interlopers if they’re humble and look you in the eyes. Learn all you can from predators and pretenders without imitating them. Take advantage of any change that’s set in motion by agitators who shake up the status quo, even if you don’t like them.

Wislawa Szymborska delivered her speech for winning the Nobel Prize, she said that “whatever else we might think of this world -- it is astonishing.” She added that for a poet, there really is no such thing as the “ordinary world,” “ordinary life,” and “the ordinary course of events.” In fact, “Nothing is usual or normal. Not a single stone and not a single cloud above it. Not a single day and not a single night after it. And above all, not a single existence, not anyone’s existence in this world.” I offer you her thoughts, Taurus, because I believe that in the next two weeks you will have an extraordinary potential to feel and act on these truths. You are hereby granted a license to be astonished on a regular basis.

sider enrolling in my Self-Pity Seminar? If so, you would learn that obsessing on self-pity is a means to an end, not a morass to get lost in. You would feel sorry for yourself for brief, intense periods so that you could feel proud and brave the rest of the time. For a given period -- let’s say three days -- you would indulge and indulge and indulge in self-pity until you entirely exhausted that emotion. Then you’d be free to engage in an orgy of self-healing, self-nurturing and self-celebration. Ready to get started? Ruminate about the ways that people don’t fully appreciate you.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) In a typical con-

versation, most of us utter too many “uhs,” “likes,” “I means,” and “you knows.” I mean, I’m sure that, uh, you’ll agree that, like, what’s the purpose of, you know, all that pointless noise?

But I have some good news to deliver about your personal use of language in the coming weeks, Cancerian. According to my reading of the astrological omens, you’ll have the potential to dramatically lower your reliance on needless filler. But wait, there’s more: Clear thinking and precise speech just might be your superpowers.

As a result, your powers of persuasion should intensify. Your ability to advocate for your favorite causes may zoom.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) In 1668, England

named John Dryden its first poet laureate. His literary influence was so monumental that the era in which he published was known as the Age of Dryden. The 20th-century poetry great T.S. Eliot said he was “the ancestor of nearly all that is best in the poetry of the 18th century.”

Curiously, Dryden had a low opinion of Shakespeare. “Scarcely intelligible,” he called the Bard, adding, “His whole style is so pestered with figurative expressions that it is as affected as it is coarse.” I foresee a comparable clash of titans in your sphere, Leo. Two major influences may fight it out for supremacy. One embodiment of beauty may be in competition with another. One powerful and persuasive force could oppose another. What will your role be?

Mediator? Judge? Neutral observer? Whatever it is, be cagey.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) Just this once,

3470 Erie Blvd E, Suite 400, Syracuse, NY 5.3.17 - 5.9.17 | syracusenewtimes.com

and for a limited time only, you have cosmic clearance to load up on sugary treats, leave an empty beer can in the woods, watch stupid TV shows, and act uncool in front of the Beautiful People. Why? Because being totally well-behaved and perfectly composed and strictly pure would compromise your mental health more than being naughty. Besides, if you want to fig-

ure out what you are on the road to becoming, you will need to know more about what you’re not.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) In addition to fashion tips, advice for the broken-hearted, midlife-crisis support and career counseling, I sometimes provide you with more mystical help. Like now. So if you need nuts-and-bolts guidance, I hope you’ll have the sense to read a more down-to-earth horoscope. What I want to tell you is that the metaphor of resurrection is your featured theme. You should assume that it’s somehow the answer to every question. Rejoice in the knowledge that although a part of you has died, it will be reborn in a fresh guise.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) “Are you ready

for the genie’s favors? Don’t rub the magic lamp unless you are.” That’s the message I saw on an Instagram meme. I immediately thought of you.

The truth is that up until recently, you have not been fully prepared for the useful but demanding gifts the genie could offer you. You haven’t had the self-mastery necessary to use the gifts as they’re meant to be used, and therefore they were a bit dangerous to you. But that situation has changed. Although you may still not be fully primed, you’re as ready as you can be. That’s why I say: RUB THE MAGIC LAMP!

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) You may

have heard the exhortation “Follow your bliss!”, which was popularized by mythologist Joseph Campbell. After studying the archetypal stories of many cultures throughout history, he concluded that it was the most important principle driving the success of most heroes. Here’s another way to say it: Identify the job or activity that deeply excites you, and find a way to make it the center of your life. In his later years, Campbell worried that too many people had misinterpreted “Follow your bliss” to mean “Do what comes easily.” That’s all wrong, he said.

Anything worth doing takes work and struggle. “Maybe I should have said, ‘Follow your blisters,’” he laughed. I bring this up, Sagittarius, because you are now in an intense “Follow your blisters” phase of following your bliss.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) Versatile artist

Melvin Van Peebles has enjoyed working as a filmmaker, screenwriter, actor, composer and novelist. One of his more recent efforts was a collaboration with the experimental band The Heliocentrics. Together they created a science-fiction-themed spoken-word poetry album titled The Last Transmission. Peebles told NPR, “I haven’t had so much fun with clothes on in years.” If I’m reading the planetary omens correctly Capricorn, you’re either experiencing that level of fun, or will soon be doing so.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) In what ways

do you most resemble your mother? Now is a good time to take inventory. Once you identify any mom-like qualities that tend to limit your freedom or lead you away from your dreams, devise a plan to transform them. You may never be able to defuse them entirely, but there’s a lot you can do to minimize the mischief they cause. Be calm but calculating in setting your intention, Aquarius! P.S.: In the course of your inventory, you may also find there are ways you are like your mother that are of great value to you. Is there anything you could do to more fully develop their potential?

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) “We are what we

imagine,” writes Piscean author N. Scott Momaday. “Our very existence consists in our imagination of ourselves. Our best destiny is to imagine who and what we are. The greatest tragedy that can befall us is to go unimagined.” Let’s make this passage your inspirational keynote for the coming weeks. It’s a perfect time to realize how much power you have to create yourself through the intelligent and purposeful use of your vivid imagination. (P.S. Here’s a further tip, this time from Cher: “All of us invent ourselves.

Some of us just have more imagination than others.”)
