Subject: RE: 'Spaw in the Stars
At this time of year, the constellation Spaw is particularly bright in the Southeastern sky. Best times for viewing are between the hours of 2 and 3 in the early morning when it's brightest star, Cletus Maximus, twinkles a jaunty "hello" to earth from 125,000 light years away. The ancient Greeks called this constellation Merdicatapulticon, or the Holy and Sacred Bullshit Slinger. It served for thousands of years as a guide to the ancient Mediterranean seamen, lighting their way to "the next Whiskey Bar."

Until next time, this is LEJ the Star Hustler reminding you to "keep your eyes on the skies".
