bebe asked:


I see alot of cool shirts with astrology signs, but I don’t really like to wear one that saids Cancer. Why can’t they change it? It would be like another astrology sign if they called it tumor.

    Cancer is the name of the constellation said to resemble a crab. It is on the horizon at dawn in late June and early July, so it’s said to be the sign for that time period. It has nothing directly to do with the illness by the same name.

    Cancer literally means “crab” in Latin, hence the name of the constellation.

    The constellation was named Cancer before the disease was discovered. ***** for us Cancerians :(

    Don’t be so egocentric. Just thank your “lucky stars” it wasn’t named AIDS, heheheeh…

    it means
    C=clumsy
    a=arrogant
    n=nonsense
    c=crule
    e=ensane
    r=rotten

    “Cancer” is the name of a constellation in the zodiac. It was named that long before the disease was known. If people are that dumb, then just laugh and correct them. End of hassle.

I mean consider whoever wrote this post, they must have been working hard to write that good and it took a good bit of their time I am sure. I work with people who couldn’t write like this if they tried, and getting them to try is hard enough as it is.

    @ Newman I know what your saying there . In the current economy its hard to find a career that pays good and is stable . I have found that if you just work hard and are consistent you can succeed. Look at the author of this article, they are oviously a hard worker and have just been consistent over time and are now enjoying at least what would appear as somewhat of a success. I would encourage everyone to just keep hustling and moving forward.
