I applaud your idea to write a book using humor to educate the general public regarding all the charlatans practising FS & readings out there. I am a Western astrologer,constantly appalled at the horror stories of my clients tell of readers before they found me. The Forum user who wrote in re: being afraid of a medium's ghost is typical of the fear con artists put into their client's heads and then milk them for money. I hope that everyone will do some research into the "readers" they use BEFORE getting a reading. Unfortunately, a lot of clients want flash and pazzaz and just aren't happy unless some "Magic Bullet Remedy" is suggested (to buy). I tell everyone that th…

We have ceiling support beams all throughout our house. I find them attractive even though I know it's bad FS. Because they are so high up I had to wait a while to buy a ladder tall enough for me to put up the cures. In fact, I was constantly irritated, especially before bed and I blamed it on my 8 House bedroom layout. Within two days of putting up the cures,I noticed a reduction in irritability not only in myself, but husband and baby (neither of them "practice FS" LOL) I recommend everyone with beams to make an effort, get that ladder, and apply the proper cure, you won't regret it.

Hello everyone: When I was in Hawaii I saw trees that looked like the shape of fish scales. I don't know the name of this tree but I believe it is in the pine family. I haven't seen these trees here in California. Would anyone know the name of this tree? I am curious as to whether having one on your property is "good luck" or portends "bad luck" in Chinese lore. Thank you.

The purpose of bringing up this (unverified) story is that, it is always good to check on the `past' history of the place you are intending to buy especially if it is for sale at a very (very) attractive price. One way is that we could perhaps check with the neighbours .... ------ Some comments -------- Don't know how true this story is!!!! Scary! ----- Extract of unknown article ----- I still remember when my office phone rang, my wife was on the line saying that she spotted a maisonette (a two level flat/apartment) in The Strait Time and it was in Jurong West Street 42 Block 547, Singapore and the price was attractive!!. So we arranged a viewing with the agent and boug…

In Japan, local farmers prepare to pack and ship full-grown square watermelons. The idea of square watermelons was first developed 20 years ago so that they easily fit in refrigerators. The melons are placed in square tempered glass while they are growing. Source and credit: Los Angeles Times (6/15/2001)

The Correct Way Of Eating Fruits - By Devagi Sanmugam We all think eating fruits means just buying fruits, cutting it and just popping it into our mouths. It's not so easy as you think. It's important to know how and when to eat fruits. Do you know of anyone who hates fruits? Most likely no. Everyone will immediately tell you about the fruits they like very much. The reason why everyone likes fruits is because our bodies crave for it instinctively. The colour, the texture, the aromas and the sweetness all make it very attractive. But I find that most of us tend to think of fruits as a treat e.g. on a hot day - water melon! But do you know that fruit is an important food t…

Type A 1.. Speaking broadly, it is said that people with Type A Blood are calm,composed, and very level-headed and serious. 2.. They have a firm character, and are reliable and trustworthy and hardheaded. 3.. They think things over and make plans eliberately, and they plug away at things steadily and assiduously. 4.. They try to make themselves more like their own ideal of what they should be. 5.. A Types may look aloof or distant to others. 6.. They try to suppress their own emotions, and because they have continual practice in doing this, this makes them appear strong. But, actually, they have a fragile, nervous side, as well. 7.. They tend to be hard on people who are …

Note: Below is not `real' but rather, a *Joke* about the use of yellow talisman to ward-off virus attack to one's PC:- For those of you prone to computer crash / virus attack /whatever computer problems, you are advised to: 1. print out then burn the attached ang kong hu (ang kong talisman), and drink the water from the ash 2. recite always the following mantra " popi computer bei hang, bei tiuk virus, always peng an ". Under Para 2, this is based on Hokkien sentence which is interpretted as: "Pray hard that my computer does not hang or get virus and always peaceful."

Source and credit: This came from a Rig Manager for Global Marine Drilling in St. Johns, Newfoundland. They actually have to divert the path of these things away from the rig by towing them with ships! Anyway, in this particular case the water was calm & the sun was almost directly overhead so that the diver was able to get into the water and click this pic. They estimated the weight at 300,000,000 tons. (See attached file: Iceberg 2.jpg)

Confidence and Self-Esteem were best friends. They went everywhere together. If Confidence bought a new dress, Self-Esteem bought one just like it. They were very close. One day a new kid came to their school. His name was Peer Pressure. He had a friend called Hateful Words. They decided to give Confidence a hard time. They constantly teased her. They forced her to do terrible things. It was so terrible that Confidence lost Self-Esteem. When Self-Esteem wanted to start dance class, Confidence said they wouldn't be any good. Then one day, Peer Pressure introduced Confidence to Doubt. He wanted to ruin Confidence, but Peer Pressure said he couldn't yet. Self Esteem couldn'…

Believe or not. (Source unknown) - for fun.... (A) Is your birthday day 1 of the month? Your Life You are very curious and dedicative. When you are interested in something, everything else has to wait. This is your quality. But if you learn to be more patient and complete what you have started, you will be successful in life. Your Love You believe in love at first sight. You won't wait to learn more about the person. Vise versa, people who fail to impress you will hardly get a chance to be your friend. Your emotion is on the extreme. You can only love or hate, nothing in between and this often shows in your statement. Try not to end a relationship in a quarrel. (B) Is …
