Eatonville, the little town that should:
Eatonville is a city of churches with no viable tax base. During the business week the streets have little to no activity, save maybe the traffic going through town on there way to some place else. On Sunday however, you would be hard pressed to find a parking space anywhere throughout the whole town. This seems sad to me. That Eatonville is only Eatonville on Sundays and once a year during the Zora Neale Hurston Festival. NY Nathiri is the Madame who pimps the memory of Hurston each year. They would have you think that Zora is Eatonville and that Eatonville is Zora when in fact she was a resident of the town. The town administration is in on the whorehouse with Nathiri, settling for only pennies derived from this once a year gangbang. Listen, Eatonville should be Eatonville 365 days a year. From day to day business is what will keep this small minded town afloat. Say that you are having trouble attracting “Black Owned” businesses, or any business other that a night club liquor store and condom shop or mental institution! Then take a look in the mirror you are your own worst enemy. The brave who have set up business in your town need to know that you wont let the “Pimp Slap” them down. Make Nathiri pay these people for loss of use and income suffered. Payment should come straight from the till of the cash pouring in from the yearly spectacle as the cash comes in, pay these businesses first! P.S. make sure you plan to include your business population in the events sure to come. Are you so short sighted you cannot see that your actions or lack there of have an impact on anyone thinking of doing business in your fair town?
A modern day menstrual show...
If this was not so sad it would be funny.

A "menstrual" show? I hope you're trying to be funny...

Daily Horoscope for June 4

Aries

Take care today Aries, because the emotional landscape in your neighborhood will be full of pitfalls during the coming fortnight, as it has been since the Solar Eclipse on May 20. The more convinced you are that you're right, the harder it will be to navigate your way around forthcoming events. If you feel resentful of someone, perhaps a neighbor or sibling, you need to get your feelings out in the open, rather than burying them deeper, where they'll fester and lead to more problems in the long run.
