Re: Random musings
a radio ad's been playing a lot lately, for an upcoming hypnosis seminar. that's fine or whatever but they end it with a quote of "almost everybody knows somebody who's been healed by the magic power of hypnosis". always strikes me as an odd declarative.

I don’t understand how radio advertising is allowed to be so heavy with obvious scams and false claims. Listen to any conservative talk radio show and it’s a good 50% of the commercials.Jocephus wrote:a radio ad's been playing a lot lately, for an upcoming hypnosis seminar. that's fine or whatever but they end it with a quote of "almost everybody knows somebody who's been healed by the magic power of hypnosis". always strikes me as an odd declarative.

I just dreamed that i was picking at a zit like inflamed bump and squeezed out a white blob that was at the center of it. Except it wasn’t just one white blob, a string of them kept coming and coming. I was like WTF do i do now. Wake up was the correct answer.
