When the moon is in the Seventh House
And Jupiter aligns with Mars
Then peace will guide the planets
And love will steer the stars.

"I'm sorry, doctor, I can't get my pacemaker then."
"Why not?"
"Mars is in retrograde."

No, this was not a joke. It seems that in astrological circles there is a concern of fated events when planets are in retrograde...
This was news to me, too.
Just don't say this to an actual astrophysicist... they get the astronomy/astrology thing all the time, when one is of course science while the other is bunk. They can be kinda touchy about it.
Just tell them you will use a retrograde insertion technique and that will cancel out the bad juju mumbo jumbo.
If only there were an AICD to shock people out of these idiotic thoughts.
