My iGoogle page has both a Quote of the Day and a horoscope. I include the latter for amusement value, as this particular juxtaposition illustrates:
Today's Horoscope
Your key planet Jupiter lends its optimistic lens to whatever is most exciting in your life. It may be hard to contain your anticipation yet it won't likely be a problem. Your enthusiasm is contagious and can motivate others. Take the time now to get involved with like-minded friends to help the world one person at a time.
A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort.

I've been engaging in a very interesting astrology thread over at the JREF.
In short (the thread is quite long) there's this dude who reckons there's something to astrology, and I have been steadily debunking his claims.
For example, he initially prediceted, given the time, date and place of my birth, that I am a power-hungry extrovert. Well, it's difficult to be more wrong. On and on he's been making claims that I (and others) have been questioning. The latest - as of this posting - is that my being an Australian changes how he interprets my horoscope! If there's something to astrology, does my surroundings really have an effect? And what is it about Australians that changes how a horoscope is interpreted?
Enjoy.
