MOON ALERT: Avoid shopping (except food and gas) or important decisions from 2 a.m. until 8:30 a.m. After that, the moon moves from Taurus into Gemini.

ARIES (March 21-April 19)

This is your kind of day because it’s full of potential adventure, fun and games. Above all, be open to trying something new and different. (You might have no choice.) Take a spontaneous short trip. See new places and meet new faces. Jot down clever new ideas.

Avengers: Infinity War star Chris Evans is 45 today.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20)

Be smart and keep an eye on your banking situation as well as your cash and possessions to protect yourself from loss, theft or damage. This is because something unexpected could impact these areas. Stay on top of things to avoid regrets.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20)

The moon is in your sign, which gives you a slight edge over all the other signs. However, the moon is also lined up with wild, wacky, unpredictable Uranus, which means you feel impulsive, and this day is slightly accident-prone. Keep your eyes open.

CANCER (June 21-July 22)

You might feel a bit restless and not know why. This is because your ruler the moon is hiding, and it is lined up with unpredictable Uranus. Meanwhile, Mercury, Venus and Jupiter are in your sign bringing you many opportunities to enjoy this day, especially through conversation.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22)

You might meet a real character. Or perhaps, someone you know will do something that surprises you. Whatever the case, new ideas and new possibilities might emerge from your exchanges with friends and groups. With Mars at the top of your chart, you’re up for anything.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

Be aware that authority figures you encounter might do something you least expect. For example, you could be busted. Or they might issue an unexpected demand or instruction. Very likely, you’ll be caught by surprise.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

Travel plans might suddenly change, be delayed or get cancelled. Or perhaps you suddenly have to travel when you did not expect to do so. You might also have an opportunity to learn something exciting, fresh and different — something that expands your world.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

Double-check banking details and anything that relates to shared wealth, property and responsibilities, because these areas will be impacted by sudden change. Don’t let this situation be one where you snooze, you lose.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

This is a lively day. You’re up for hard work, however, spouses, partners and close friends might also throw you a curveball or do something you least expect. You might need to be skilful and diplomatic in dealing with someone. (You can do this.)

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

Your work routine will be interrupted. This can be good news — or not so good news. Whatever the case, be smart and give yourself extra time so you have wiggle room to deal with the unexpected. Surprising news related to health or legal matters might also arise.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

Parents should be extra-vigilant, because this is an accident-prone day for kids. Be especially vigilant about keeping young children away from hazardous situations. Meanwhile, your social scene will be full of surprises. An unexpected invite might come your way. Perhaps plans will change.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20)

Small appliances might break down or a minor outage could occur at home because something unexpected will impact your domestic routine. Perhaps someone unexpected will knock on the door. Stock the fridge so you’re ready for anything.

TODAY’S BIRTHDAY

Actor Chris Evans (1981) shares your birthday. You have wide-ranging interests and are open to change. You’re curious, innovative and thoughtful. This is a slower-paced year. Take time to rejuvenate your energy. Focus on business and personal relationships and hang out with people who have your back. Concentrate on your needs and what brings you happiness.

You can work out your social situation

Maureen Scurfield 4 minute read Yesterday at 2:00 AM CDT

DEAR MISS LONELYHEARTS: When I was a young bisexual guy going to university and working in bars at night, I was surrounded by new people — guys and girls all the time.

There were a lot of great late-night parties after work, and I always had my eye on somebody new. I was never lonely in those days. Where did all that fun and happiness go?

Now I’m a few years older with a career and don’t need a job as a bartender to help support me. But it seems like there’s nobody around to meet, other than at bars.

Also, I’m realizing that while there are lots of straight people out there looking for fun and relationships, it’s hard to convince them that I could be true to them alone, being bisexual. But I’m true to whomever I’m with — and I only want one lover at a time.

Animal rescue groups shaken by advocate’s death

Carol Sanders 4 minute read Yesterday at 5:40 PM CDT

A week after an animal rescue volunteer died doing what she loved at Sandy Bay First Nation, the charity she dedicated herself to has paused rescues as groups rally to prevent another mauling.

Winnipeg’s Amanda Nobiss, 37, was found dead July 17 after police were contacted by a friend trying to locate her. She often visited the community 180 kilometres northwest of Winnipeg to save animals.

Several “aggressive dogs” were found near where Nobiss’s body was located, Manitoba First Nation Police Service has said. It did not respond Friday when asked for an update on its investigation into her death.

“What happened is the most tragic, heartbreaking thing that could have possibly happened,” said Chelsea Kork, president of K9 Advocacy Manitoba, the charity Nobiss volunteered with.

For unique Menno-centric take on Free Press, satirist mines her jibes between the lines

David Sanderson 8 minute read 10:40 AM CDT

Free Press readers of a certain vintage may remember when tuning into a local radio station to hear a pair of disc jockeys perusing a section of the Saturday edition was appointment listening.

On Sunday mornings from 1962 until the mid-1980s, CKRC 630 personalities Bob Washington and Tom Ashmore — better known as Wash and Ash — entertained Winnipeggers of all ages by impersonating the likes of Dennis the Menace, Beetle Bailey and Archie Andrews, as they lent their voices to that weekend’s multi-page, colour comic insert.

In a 1984 interview, Washington, who died in 2016 at the age of 82, attributed the weekly program’s longevity to audiences enjoying the antics of “two middle-aged guys in 24 dialects, giving their version of what Dagwood is saying to Blondie, or what Hägar the Horrible is bragging about.”

More than 40 years later, another Winnipegger is turning to the Free Press for her material. Only instead of reading the paper’s funnies, Lori Klassen, a mother of three and grandmother of two, is funnily reading the paper.

A Life's Story: Beloved matriarch, kindergarten teacher lived a musical life

Phyllis Dana faced a choice: leave Winnipeg to study opera at a prestigious Philadelphia school, or marry the man she loved.

She chose the latter.

Now, her Juno-winning granddaughter cherishes a Happy Birthday voicemail sung by Phyllis. Three generations of Dana women — Phyllis, her daughter, and granddaughter — would sing in Winnipeg’s prominent Jewish spaces. And hundreds of Manitobans know the matriarch as their kindergarten teacher.

“My mom said, ‘A sheet of music won’t keep you warm at night,’” Karen Dana recalled.
