A man is riding aimlessly through the desert on a donkey. He is not hungry or thirsty, because he has a bottomless bowl of fruit. He wanders for about a week and eventually gets pretty horny. He gets to the point where he can''t stand it anymore. So he decides to try and have sex with the donkey.

He drops his pants and positions himself under the donkey. But, to his dismay, the donkey walks away. Only slightly discouraged, the man decides to try again. He walks to where the donkey is standing, positions himself under the donkey, and right before he goes for it, the donkey walks away again. Now the man is getting frustrated.

As he prepares for his third and final try, he sees a vision. A beautiful, naked woman appears out of nowhere. She approaches the stunned man, who until recently, believed that he was the only person for hundreds of miles. She smiles at him and says, ''''I would do anything for that bowl of fruit you have."

''''Anything?'''' he says, getting fairly excited.

''''Yes, anything.'''' she replies.

So he says, ''''Will you hold the donkey!?''''

For Tuesday, December 2 - Daydreaming can help you visualize a better future for yourself, so today going off to fantasy land could be a very effective use of your free time. Focusing only on your day to day routine offers no stimulation whatsoever, no matter how interesting your days have been lately. Your mind needs to escape to a worry-free place where anything is possible and the world can be whatever you want it to be. You will find that escape through your vivid imagination.

For Tuesday, December 2 - You'll receive an inexpensive but impressive gift today -- and you should show your gratitude accordingly. Thank the person or thank the universe -- whichever is responsible. It could be the gift of an idea, or an inspiration that will spark a great change in your life. Enjoy the 'eureka!' moment that is sure to come, which won't be hard to do. It's nice to be reminded that life is still full of surprises and that you are still capable of surprising other people once in a while.

For Tuesday, December 2 - Your recent dreams have been vivid and rather entertaining, but do they hold valuable insight into how you can find happiness? No. They're just ideas your subconscious is playing with, and nothing more. Be careful not to read too much into the numbers that keep popping up. You can play them in the lottery, but don't expect a big win. Your prosperity is much more likely to come as a result of your hard work right now. Money still has to be earned.

For Tuesday, December 2 - People who have a lot of power over your life are going to be all around you today, so it's time to look your best and act your best. Of course, they are going to like what they see, and it won't be hard to impress them -- but you can't get too cocky about it, or take their approval for granted. Double check your work just in case and make sure you've finished everything perfectly. Your relationships with these people are good, but why not make sure that they get even better?

For Tuesday, December 2 - Communicating with your family might be difficult right now -- your feelings might be so complicated that you either don't feel like sharing them or don't know how to share them! Either way, this is not a good day for any major conversations with siblings or your parents. And even scheduling a future visit is not advised right now, because you won't be able to come up with a time that works for everyone. So get back in touch with them in a few days.

For Tuesday, December 2 - You are entering a phase where you are ready to put your ambition aside in favor of pursuing your social goals. You are getting along well with others right now, and this is a harmony that you should be in no hurry to end. Being with other people is very rewarding to you right now, and you truly value the people you're surrounded by. So the idea of getting to know them even better should be quite appealing. Today you should pull back on your work and just focus on fun.

For Tuesday, December 2 - What important people say is very important today -- it could reveal some secrets and give you an edge over the competition. So try to talk it up with as many people as possible. Ask probing questions, play devil's advocate, and don't shy away from taboo topics. Be open-minded about what people have to say and listen all the more intently when they say things that you don't necessarily like. Get ready to revise some of your long-held beliefs, because you just might have to.

For Tuesday, December 2 - One or two ego clashes are likely today, so prepare yourself for some disappointing behavior from people you used to respect. You will be thrust into a high stakes situation, and everyone around you will be ready to do whatever it takes to end up on top -- including cheat. This doesn't mean that you have to get down in the dirt with others in order to survive, though. You can rise above the fray. Maintain your honor while you keep your focus on what you need to do.
