If you think it's work, you're doing it wrong.

Sounds like fun. I hope I remember this time!

Uncertainty may make you uncomfortable. Certainty makes you ridiculous.

Why not question something for a change?

What are the odds? Higher than one would think, as usual. I took yesterday off and holed up all day to read a new book titled "Slights of mind". I had read a review in "Science News" at the library and got it. The review stated that it was about Neuroscience etc. Jamy Ian Swiss was in it as were James Randy, Penn & Teller and a whole lot more. It detailed how the senses and brain function, with their limitations and how they process sensory inputs. It also covers how Magic tricks and shows
are constructed to create the effects and responses they do. I expect to not miss this show. SS

There are only two types of religious people, the deceivers and the deceived. SS
