Prophecy in Theory and Practice, Tuesday Second Period (10/09)
Tuesday, October 9, Second Period
The ususal breakfast goodies were laid out on the table. Additionally the seating was all arranged into pairs, with a table holding a small pot and two cups next to each pair.
"Today's class discussion is on the topic of scam artists and prediction. I'd like to hear your opinions on some of the following questions:
-Does charging money for telling fortunes affect the validity of a prediction?
-Do fortune-teller con artists harm the reputation of "real" seers?
-How can legitimate prophets and seers counteract the public perception of fortune-tellers as cons?"
Once the discussion was over, Aziraphale gave a brief lecture and presented some handouts on tea (and coffee) reading.
"Your in-class activity today is to read tea leaves or coffee grounds for yourself or -- preferably -- for a classmate. You may also want to get in some practice outside of class, as we will be using today's activity as the basis for a special project in a few weeks."

Turn in Last Week's Homework

She might have been wrong.
There were a lot of grunts and groans and yes, moaning, written down in her journal. Included were, uhhhh and Ohhhh and no, not now, and my covers!. Also was the single word giggling. Dick woke her up after the giggle and it wouldn't be appropriate to write down what occurred as a result of that waking up moment because it was no longer part of her dream. Duh.
Continuing were the words oh my, yes, Dick is the most awesome hottie ever! (though Annette suspected that he just added that to her journal for creative flair). Extra credit words were underlined in her journal: I'm hot, now yes now!, that tickles, my ass is falling, Twinkies, my milkshake brings all the boys to the yard, lipo is gross, Dick rules.
Annette included a detailed version of her dreams and how she percieved them by way of the words she spoke while dreaming. It would seem she thought herself a passionate, perceptive, and deeply thought provoked person. She also loved her boyfriend.
Thank you very much.

handwaveyjournal. It contained more drawings than words. The doodles ranged from fairly dark and broody stick figures, to happy little stick figures with bow ties.Re: Turn in Last Week's Homework

She thought a moment. "And yeah, the con artists definitely harm the reputation of people who actually are seers. Because people are more reluctant to believe in real seers and fortune-tellers and other equally talents."
