Capricorn

Capricorn gives medium stature, or under; sometimes bony and thin; weak chest, sloping shoulders, long necks. Head small; face thin; firm lips, pointed and long chin; brow-bones prominent; ears deficient in the lobes; hairs scanty; eyes deep-set; long or prominent nose, hands bony.

Some of the manuscripts I've worked with this summer deal with astrology and palmistry. Today I'm doing some research on the topic so I can be better prepared to discuss it when we do our display. I just found this description of Capricorns in a book entitled "Astro-Palmistry", published in 1930 in Calcutta. Accroding to this description, I should basically look like a cave man. A skinny, almost bald cave man.

Another chapter deals with birthmarks. Accordingly, I should (and don't) have one on my knee.

If your curious, tell me your sign and I'll post what your description is :)

So I'm... a fat neanderthal? I think I'm offended ;-)

lol, top heavy = big boobs! Since when do neanderthals have big boobs? The whole thing is ridiculously funny.
