Week of April 2, 1998 

 I wouldn't want to be responsible for getting you in trouble at work, but it's my civic duty to call your attention to the fact that April 6 is World Phone in Sick Day. And it's my astrological responsibility to let you know that you have a mandate to goof off and mess around and cut up far more than usual this week. Now if it's possible for you to fulfill the latter assignment while on the job, by all means show up as scheduled. Otherwise, I suggest you definitely phone in sick.
