In keeping with the latest 'bakery craze of different types of cereals, I present to you Zodiax. The twelve zodiac signs come in different colors and fruity flavors (a lá Trix).

       mine's a goat.
make it raspberry...

       Are you a Capricorn, [po]? Me too!
Machiavelli, Mar 16 2005
  

       yes, but are you a limegreen raspberry goat? now, that would be a coincidence.
po, Mar 16 2005
  

       Um, no...I'm more of a chocolatey marshmallow goat.
Machiavelli, Mar 16 2005
  

       I would love to eat my own sign. But it just keeps swimming away from my spoon!

       I'm a Capricorn but don't want it. You get my goat.

       You can count me out. Us Tauruses don't do astrology.

       Good idea [+], though it sounds like the name of a prescription drug.

       Scorpions are so hard to swallow.   

       My cereal has always been fairly unbalanced.

       [zeno]Happy birthdayish! I too would like to wake with the fishes. I still can't decide whether there's anything to this astrology lark, but if this cerial had cinnamon dusting, then I'd eat it.   

       [Mach] If we were on 'The Apprentice' I'd want you on my team - great idea[+]...   

       Now I feel like I've got to try and come up with some kind of cerial based notion on my own....   

       <Edit>By the way, can we officially change the spelling of cereal to cerial, serial or something that I can deal with pls?
zen_tom, Mar 17 2005
  

       No.

       OK, but I may have to start using euphemisms in order to hide my shame. Frootloop anyone?
zen_tom, Mar 17 2005
  

       Thanks, [z_tom]. But I have to say, I can't stand D.Trump! I was thinking of cinnamon sugar cereal at first, but I thought the fruity colorful signs would look cuter against the white background of the milk. (p.s. at least you can spell cinnamon correctly!)
Machiavelli, Mar 17 2005
  

       But he speaks so fondly of you, [Machiavelli].
bristolz, Mar 17 2005
  

       Must be because of that favor I did for him many moons ago.
Machiavelli, Mar 17 2005
  

       Doctor - I think my cereal is carcinogenic. Its full of cancer.
energy guy, Mar 17 2005
  

       Thank you [zen-tom]. And I don't believe in astrology at all, they never get the predictions right. But when desrcibing what kind of person I am based on nothing but my date and time of birth, guess what? They get it right! Spooky, I just don't think about it much because I can not explain it.
zeno, Mar 18 2005
  

       I don't believe in astrology, either. I don't think I fit the description of the Capricorn and the predictions are never right. But I read my horoscope everyday anyway for the entertainment value. Plus I think zodiac signs look cool.   

       EDIT: Actually, I must've read the wrong description or I must be evolving into a proper Cappy the older I get. I just read another description of them and I fit it quite well.
Machiavelli, Mar 18 2005
  

       there are two kinds of goats, the domestic one, tied to the fence, and the mountain goat, wild and free; the capricorn typically has two natures.   

       the question is not, "can I climb the mountain?", but, "which mountain shall I climb?". capricorn relishes the solitude of the climb, and typically has a fierce work ethic and ambition. however, they can get out of touch by climbing the wrong mountain.

       mmmmm scaley cereal
kaz, Mar 18 2005
  

       zeno/mach - read any description for any sign. You'll fit it too. They are written sufficiently vague as to apply to all people.   

       Sorry, this whole cereal thing is getting old. I'll pass. ( )

       If the stars don't affect you then what does?
