Meet Stacey Hahn, hair stylist at Indira Salon and day spa. The former Ghost of Modern Man band hero is holding up the brand new, ink-still-wet issue of prairie dog, Regina’s independent paper. He can’t wait to read it because it’s just full of great stuff. For example:

THE ASTROLOGY OF REGINA! All the controversy around changed Zodiac signs and new Zodiac signs reminded me prairie dog has never, EVER run an article about what the hell this city needs to know, about itself astrologically. Well, LETS JUST CORRECT THIS OVERSIGHT RIGHT NOW. John Delaney’s excellent article is full of interesting facts, such as 1.) Regina has two birthdays and therefore two charts and also 2.) because of Gemini in Pluto, we have problems with THIEVES.

THE WELFARE RIGHTS CENTRE NEEDS TO LIVE! Stephen LaRose visits a luncheon rally for the soon-to-shut-down Welfare Rights Centre and gets an earful from supporters who say the organization does needed work and there’s no way the Provincial government should’ve ended its contract with the centre. a sad and important tale that’s worth your valuable time.

LANNY McDONALD! Lanny McDonald! The guy with the greatest moustache in hockey history! Interviewed! Get out! But it’s true! A must-read and reminder that prairie dog might be packed with nerds, but a lot of these nerds are big hockey nerds. This article’s another classic from the Stephen LaRose hit factory.

The new issue’s out and about at, whatever, 400 locations city-wide. It’s free! It’s great! And it makes Regina a livelier, more informed and generally funner place (yes I KNOW “funner” is not a word but this is important!).

Don’t miss out! Stacey would be disappointed!
