English JOKE<br />

«What's his name?"<br />

This joke is very short and very easy,<br />

but it shows how real mistakes can be<br />

made when speaking English. Enjoy!<br />

Bob told Betty that he had (1) an<br />

acquaintance with (2) a wooden leg<br />

named Smith. So Betty asked him<br />

"That's very (3) curious. What was the<br />

name of his other leg?"<br />

(1) somebody he knows, but not very<br />

well like a friend<br />

(2) a fake leg (not real) - he must have<br />

lost his leg in a bad accident<br />

(3) a little bit strange<br />

Horoscope<br />

Explanation: Bob should have said he<br />

had "an acquaintance named Smith<br />

with a wooden leg". The way he said it,<br />

it seems the wooden leg's name is<br />

Smith!<br />

Life makes more and better sense in 2018, Capricorn. A clearer<br />

perspective will make it much easier to achieve your goals and dreams.<br />

On New Year's Day, idealistic Neptune is in a cooperative if loose sextile<br />

with the sun and Venus. This isn't superficial charm. It's grace that draws<br />

allies and good fortune to you.<br />

Also, Mars and Jupiter are still in a productive sextile with the sun and<br />

Pluto. You can play for keeps and do it in the most constructive way.<br />

Your planet Saturn is now at home in Capricorn, and this greatly<br />

empowers you. In the summer, Mars is retrograde in early Aquarius and then<br />

Capricorn. Refocus and redirect great energy now.<br />

Saturn is retrograde from the middle of April until early September. You<br />

may be the most impatient and perhaps anxious then. Don't dwell on<br />

difficulties or obstacles. Methodically work your way through them and<br />

emerge better organized and more respected than ever.
