And, reading the posters about town advertising all manners of events and quackeries I come across another poster advertising a particular service targeted at Women - which I'd post here but it's a small town and my skepticism would be held against me.
"Licensed Soul Therapist and Past Life Regressionist.". I suppose it's no different than a Chiropractor, although I have some serious questions for the body that governs or regulates this...
Should I be reassured that it's not a Wild West out there of alternative therapies, knowing that your acupuncturist or homeopath or hot-yoga or what-have-you has been required to do some BS 'accredited' course?
Anyways, found it amusing is all. I need to invent a few quack medical treatments and then insist upon people paying me fees to License and Practice...

Volunteering at ... and M*** has thrown away a copy of a Bible that came in. It's a newer edition, he has a real love-hate thing going with Christianity, me, I rescue it from the bin and flip the pages. People like to hide money in Bibles.
o money, but this slips out..
That's 2 sides of an 8X11 ruled paper. 3 handwritten lines per line, prayers and entreaties to Jesus...
Right click, open image in new tab to embiggen and read.
Amazing. This belongs in a Psychiatric hospital, the full on ravings of a religious lunatic, treasure comes in variety of forms...
Knowing there's competition means I'm going to have to seriously up my game...

And, checking my data usage, finding that whereas I used to use about 8 GB a month, having updated to 45 GB find that I've almost used it all.
It seems my Internet usage is a balloon that will expand to fill up any vacuum.
So back online, a new promotional plan, double my usage on full 5-G for a mere $5.00 more.
I'm down.
Now I'd better not use this up...
The Gallery Opening...

A new show, finally, at the local art gallery. Long overdue, these shows occupy the mind for maybe half an hour - tops, then hang around town another 3-4 months afterwards.
We need a quicker turn-around.
Anyways, I'd tried to go on Friday night, the shows opening, possibly of interest to me as the artist made mention of "local geology" which, as you might expect, got me going.
But Friday night it's packed, to the gills, and moving through the the hoi polloi, all of whom are too busy hob-nobbing to make way or for easy passage through the gallery. It's impossible.
So I return Saturday, when the gallery's empty, and ....
Well, it's discouragingly "modern", by which the artist is simply using words like "geology" to drag me in, there's very few rocks, and the rocks she's used are boring, and instead of being lovingly sculpted she's simply added shapes to them with modelling clay (I'd had the same idea, but imagined it carved from the living rock...). A few curtains dusted with mica, a few map-type thingies which are hardly art, this is bollocks.
The other gallery opening is tomorrow, and I'm not sure I want to invest any hope in this...
