FEATURES WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 17, 2016 JUST LIKE CATS & DOGS Dave T. Phipps R.F.D HERMISTONHERALD.COM • A15 by Mike Marland SALOME’S STARS HOROSCOPE ARIES (March 21 to April 19) Whatever decisions you’re faced with this week, rely on your strong Aries instincts, and base them on your honest feelings, not necessarily on what others might expect you to do. AMBER WAVES by Dave T. Phipps GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) More fi ne-tuning might be in order before you can be absolutely certain that you’re on the right track. Someone close to you might off er to help. Th e weekend favors family get-togethers. by Jeff Pickering THE SPATS LAFF-A-DAY TAURUS (April 30 to May 20) Your sensitive Taurean spirit is pained by what you feel is an unwarranted at- tack by a miff ed colleague. But your sensible self should see it as proof that you must be doing something right. CANCER (June 21 to July 22) Th e week continues to be a balancing act ‘twixt dreaming and doing. But by week’s end, you should have a much better idea of what you actually plan to do and how you plan to do it. FLASHBACK LEO (July 23 to August 22) Chang- ing your plans can be risky, but it can also be a necessary move. Recheck your facts before you act. Tense encounters should ease by mid- week, and all should be well by the weekend. SUPER CROSSWORD: XXXXX by Mick Harper 1. Who had a hit with “Down in the Boon- docks”? 2. Name the two musicians who started Mudcrutch in Gainesville, Florida. 3. Just how big was “Big Bad John”? 4. Who wrote and re- leased “Please Come to Boston”? 5. Name the song that contains this lyric: “You are my whole, babe, My heart and my soul, babe. I’d have nothing to show, babe, If you should go away.” SUDOKU DIFFICULTY THIS WEEK LIBRA (September 23 to October 22) Congratulations. Your good intentions are fi nally recognized, and long-overdue appreciation should follow. Keep working toward improvements wherever you think they’re necessary. SCORPIO (October 23 to Novem- ber 2) Try to look at your options without prejudging any of them. Learn the facts, and then make your assessments. Spend the weekend enjoying fi lms, plays and musical events. ANSWERS 1. Billy Joe Royal in 1965. He cut a demo of the Joe South song and netted a record- ing contract, using the demo as the released version. 2. Tom Petty and Tom Leadon, in 1970. Th e band, the forerunner to Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers, reformed in 2007. 3. Big Bad John (from the song by Jimmy Dean in 1961) was 6 foot 6 inches tall, and 245 pounds. 4. Dave Loggins, in 1974. 5. “Which Way You Goin’ Billy,” by Th e Poppy Family in 1970. Songwriter Terry Jacks fi rst wrote the song as “Which Way You Goin’ Buddy,” in memory of his idol Buddy Holly. He then change it to a generic Billy when he saw all the men going to fi ght in Vietnam and leaving wives and girlfriends behind. CRYPTOQUIP VIRGO (August 23 to September 22) You might still be trying to adjust to recent changes. But things should improve considerably as you get to see some positive results. An uneasy personal matter calls for more patience. SAGITTARIUS (November 22 to December 21) Someone might want to take advantage of the Sagittarian’s sense of fair play. But before you ride off to right what you’ve been told is a wrong, be sure of your facts. CAPRICORN (December 22 to Jan- uary 19) You might be surprised to learn that not everyone agrees with your ideas. But this can prove to be a good thing. Go over them and see where improvements can be made. AQUARIUS (January 20 to Feb- ruary 18) Aft er taking advice on a number of matters in recent months, expect to be called on to return the gesture. And, by the way, you might be surprised at who makes the request. PISCES (February 19 to March 20) Reassure everyone concerned that a change of mind isn’t necessarily a change of heart. You might still want to pursue a specifi c goal, but feel a need to change the way you’ll get there. BORN THIS WEEK: You are able to make room in your heart for others, and that makes you a very special person in their lives.
