Does the hour and location of a whistle's completion affect its character?

The matter is dealt with, at length, in my soon-to-be bestselling classic, The Librarian Conspiracy

My new Busman is a Libra.

I did a google search and found a description of a typical Libra, and in the following I have replaced "You" with "It"... how very cool!

"It is under the rulership of the planet Venus and has an instinctive grace and charm, proportion and harmony, a phrase to describe it is - In balance. It seeks to work in co-operation with others and is very concerned to form companionships and partnerships since it finds it hard to work in isolation."

Yup, I'd go along with that! :D

And, see, that brings us all back to Walden's book The Librarian Conspiracy. Synchronicity... gotta love it.


Libras rule!!


(and yes, I do think that the time and completion of a whistle may have something to do with its personality)

I guess that's good, since I've spawned a couple. We Sagi's, by my experience seem to wander about in a daze...I may need those kids to straighten me out some day!

...which distribution we may expect in about the same time as, say, the much-awaited D. Spillane Whistle? Low D wasn't it supposed to be? I forget; time erodes so much... :D

At any rate, I'm looking for ill-considered opinions and myth-based guesswork rather than at-length dealings in authoritative tomes that have yet to see the light of day. No offence, good Walden, but even YOU must have something with which to further stir the pot. :)

Okay okay okay...
I've studied the stars...looked for auspicious signs and all that, and have made the following prediction:

(please put on your flowy India-cotton dresses...even you Nano...)

When St. Clair can jam at Bloomie's house,
and hovercrafts collide with cars,
Then DaleForce One will unite planets,
and riverdance among the stars,

This is the dawning of the Age of the Low Spillane,
age of the Low Spillane
(no wait's in vain!)
the Low Spillane...the Low Spillane!

As a metrosexual, even *I* have my limits. A dashiki and headband will do, thank you.

Well, you would think with a name like "Puff" the dude could play a whistle.
