People
born in Dog years spend much of their time in an advanced state of suspicious
outrage. �Dogs think the evil world is plotting against them, that life
is a dreadful place to live in and that it's up to them to put things
to rights. �Dogs are crusaders. �Give a Dog a cause to campaign for and
she'll unearth every bone she's buried for the last ten years in order
to see that justice is done. �Thorough, diligent, faithful, honest, loyal
and devoted -- all of the above apply to Dog subjects. Even
at her grumpiest, the Dog is a lovable, if somewhat intractable, beast.
�She cannot be bothered with trifles because she is intensely involved
in constructing an airtight case for her lawsuit against the toy manufacturer
who made the space capsule she bought her son for Christmas. �The workmanship
is shoddy. �The 100 percent virgin polyester plastic is toxic and should
not be eaten by a two-year-old. �Ms. Dog has the toy laboratory-tested.
�This time the toy company is in big trouble. Poor
Doggie, you drag yourself away from your desk, exhausted after writing
twenty angry letters to school boards around the country warning them
of the dangers of frozen pizza in their cafeterias, and you need to
be loved. �You seek comfort and understanding. �You sit down at the
knee of your favorite companion and lay your furry head in a welcoming
lap. �Your big liquid eyes stare beseechingly upward. �You sigh, "Why
doesn't General Motors put inflatable safety seats in ALL their new
cars?" Because
of this "Ralph Nader" side to their character, Dogs are often found
in jobs where helping others makes up a large part of their responsibility.
�They are nurses or doctors or lawyers or architects -- or poets. �But
they are usually not politicians or gangsters. �Dogs don't take to crime.
�They are not after easy gain. �They just want a quiet life with a nice
family where they will be left undisturbed by the roiling world of scandal
and scum. Trouble
is, Dogs are so busy rescuing others and caring about causes, they forget
to take care of Number One. �They don't look for their own interests
and are surprised and hurt when they realize they've been double-crossed
or taken to the cleaners by ruthless characters. �Dogs even wear a look
of hurt on their faces, a perplexed near frown that says, "Don't hit
me again. �I'm sorry. �I'll be quiet. �I won't chew up slippers anymore."
�It's quite sad. But
this attitude, this air of the beaten Dog, is very endearing. �People
are attracted to Dogs. �Dogs are nice, friendly, loving souls. �Only
thing is they fall victim to frequent attacks of barking. �The most
placid peace-loving person may suddenly snap! �Out of nowhere the Dog
blurts, "Your friend Bill is a creep!" It's
baffling. �Where did this disobliging remark come from? �You thought
Doggie loved Bill. �How can it be? �"I'm sorry," says Doggie apologetically.
�"I didn't mean that Bill is really a creep creep. �You know, I just
mean that sometimes Bill's a little weird." Dogs
are basically too nice to be really nasty. �But they are critical and
very cutting. �They reason too much, take things to pieces instead of
looking at them globally and eschew fancy because they fear it. �Dogs
are afraid of their own shadows. �They lack confidence and don't mind
blaming their faults on others. Sorry,
Doggie, mistakes as well as good deeds are always your own fault and
only your fault. �You can't put the blame on the rest of the world for
your own failings. �Cheer up. �You have tons of charm and masses of
ability. �You are noble, upstanding, moral and generous. �You make a
terrific mate for those who have a mission or want to spend all their
time creating. �In fact, I was wondering... what are you doing for dinner
tonight? FAMOUS
DOGS: �David Bowie, Naomi Campbell, Judy Garland, Socrates, George Gershwin,
Benjamin Franklin, Herbert Hoover and David Niven. |
