ANSWERS
1. Led Zeppelin. Th e
group disbanded
aft er Bonham’s death in
1980. He’d ingested the
equivalent of 40 shots
of vodka in a 24-hour
period.
2. Sly and the Family
Stone, on their 1973
“Fresh” album.
3. It’s short ... 1.36 sec-
onds, to be exact.
4. Keith Moon of Th e
Who. He’d put too
much fl ash powder
in the drums, and the
explosion nearly took
out the stage. Th e band
was known for ex-
plosions and crushed
instruments during
their performances,
but this prank resulted
in actual shrapnel
from the cymbals.
5. “Shoo-Be-Doo-
Be-Doo-Da-Day,”
by Stevie Wonder, in
1968. It was the fi rst
song where he used the
clavinet, an electrically
amplifi ed clavichord.
A number of groups
produced music with
the clavinet, mostly for
sound eff ects, but by
the 1990s spare parts
were hard to fi nd.
CRYPTOQUIP
OBITUARY POLICY
GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) A
personal disappointment should be
viewed as a valuable learning experi-
ence. Go over what went wrong and
see where a change in tactics might
have led to a more positive outcome.
by Jeff Pickering
CANCER (June 21 to July 22) Don’t
leave projects unfi nished or personal
obligations unresolved, or you might
fi nd yourself tripping over all those
loose ends later on. A relative has
important news.

SUPER CROSSWORD: SPLITTING THE LAND
LEO (July 23 to August 22) Expect
a challenge to the usual way you do
things. Although you might prefer
the tried-and-true, once you take
a good look at this new idea, you
might feel more receptive to it.
VIRGO (August 23 to September
22) Much work has yet to be done
to polish a still-rough idea into
something with signifi cant potential.
Expect to encounter some initial re-
jection, but stay with it nonetheless.
LIBRA (September 23 to October
22) Th ere still might be some com-
munication problems in the work-
place, but they should be resolved
soon. Meanwhile, that “tip” from a
friend should be checked out.
SCORPIO (October 23 to Novem-
ber 21) A new relationship appears
to need more from you than you
might be willing to give right now.
Best advice: Resist making promises
you might not be able to keep.
SAGITTARIUS (November 22 to
December 21) Th at restless feeling
encourages you to gallop off into a
new venture. But remember to keep
hold of the reins so you can switch
paths when necessary.
CAPRICORN (December 22 to
January 19) A demanding work
schedule keeps the high-spirited
Goat from kicking up his or her
heels. But playtime beckons by the
week’s end. Have fun. You earned it.
AQUARIUS (January 20 to
February 18) You’re beginning to
come out from under those heavy
responsibilities you took on. Use
this freed-up time to enjoy some
much-deserved fun with people
close to you.
PISCES (February 19 to March 20)
Before you get swept away by a tidal
wave of confl icting priorities, take
time to come up for air, and reassess
the situation. You might be sur-
prised by what you’ll fi nd.
BORN THIS WEEK: Your lead-
ership qualities are enhanced by a
practical sense of purpose that keeps
you focused on your goals.
