    I'm a firm believer that psychics do NOT exist. The wisdom of the ages is my reference. Much knowledge centers on illusions of obviousness. In short, these illusions simply confirm what you might already believe about the future and human nature. Scientifically, they are not important. Psychics seek to EXTEND and DEEPEN understanding of generally accepted facts. They enjoy startling people. Psychology and common sense -- a popular topic.

    It would be nice to see how one is a 'proven' psychic. Also a link to the law would be nice too.

    My wife and I have just opened up our psychic baby hot line. For $3.99 a minute we will both use our powers and tell you if you are pregnant or not. Double your money back if we are both wrong. If you are pregnant we will use out powers to guess the sex of the baby. Our powers together are so amazing that we again will give you double your money back if both of us are wrong. How can you lose??

    But it's not against these "laws" to charge people 50 or 100 bucks and give them vague generalized answers? Someone needs new laws!

    Lots of people ask this same question - "how come psychics cain't pick the Lotto and ain't rich.' Oh, about the same reason and question that I ask, 'how come 'non-psychics cain't pick the Lotto and ain't rich iffen the psychics cain't? But I have little reason to believe that you are winning the Lotto ever week. Or maybe you are.
    Send me sum money!!

    I like this:
    William Shakespeare - All the world's a stage (from As You Like It 2/7)
    All the world's a stage,
    And all the men and women merely players:
    They have their exits and their entrances;
    And one man in his time plays many parts,
    His acts being seven ages. At first the infant,
    Mewling and puking in the nurse's arms.
    And then the whining school-boy, with his satchel
    And shining morning face, creeping like snail
    Unwillingly to school. And then the lover,
    Sighing like furnace, with a woeful ballad
    Made to his mistress' eyebrow. Then a soldier,
    Full of strange oaths and bearded like the pard,
    Jealous in honour, sudden and quick in quarrel,
    Seeking the bubble reputation
    Even in the cannon's mouth. And then the justice,
    In fair round belly with good capon lined,
    With eyes severe and beard of formal cut,
    Full of wise saws and modern instances;
    And so he plays his part. The sixth age shifts
    Into the lean and slipper'd pantaloon,
    With spectacles on nose and pouch on side,
    His youthful hose, well saved, a world too wide
    For his shrunk shank; and his big manly voice,
    Turning again toward childish treble, pipes
    And whistles in his sound. Last scene of all,
    That ends this strange eventful history,
    Is second childishness and mere oblivion,
    Sans teeth, sans eyes, sans taste, sans everything.

    So I guess some of us are meant to play Lottery Winner's and some of us Lottery contributors.

    Wouldn't it be easier to get a tester from the store?

    Sure you can't be both wrong because it's 50/50 chance. One of you will say it's a boy and one of you will say it's a girl hahaha. You're a comedian.
