Meet someone for the first time and convince them
that you know all about them...

The Psychic's Biggest Secret--
And Here's How to Do It!


You can convince someone that you met for the first time that you know all about them--just by telling them things that are true for almost everybody. It's called cold reading, and it's how most psychics and fortune tellers work. Many psychic and astrological readings are written so that they are true for most people most of the time. But anyone getting the reading feels it was created especially for them. Here is an example:

Sometimes you are too honest about your feelings and you reveal too much of yourself. You are good at thinking things through for yourself and you like to see proof before you change your mind about anything. When you find youself in a new situation you are very cautious until you find out what’s going on, and then you begin to act with confidence. Your personality has a few weaknesses but you can generally compensate for them. Sometimes you have difficulty making decisions and you have serious doubts about whether you’ve done the right thing. You don’t like being told that you can’t do something and you become bored when you have to live with too many restrictions because you like a little change and variety in your life. You are able to discipline yourself so that you seem in control to others, but actually you sometimes feel somewhat insecure. You wish you could be a little more popular and at ease in your interpersonal relationships than you are now.

To see just how well this works, compare it to the reading below. It’s the same reading, except the meaning of every statement has been reversed. Very few people would say that it fits them.

You charge into a new situation before you know what you’re doing, but after you find out what’s going on you lose confidence in yourself. You make up a lot of stuff about yourself, but you still can’t impress people. You never think for yourself and never change your mind even when shown proof. You have a lot of bad personality traits that you never try to overcome. You make snap judgements and never regret it. You enjoy being told what you can and cannot do by others. You don’t like trying new things. You have no self control and that makes you feel confident. You seek out people who don’t like you, and then insist on spending time with them.

Try it!

Finally, something to read that makes sense.

I think it's pretty safe to say Dubya spends a fair bit of time in Georgtown and from my trips to the US they're very fond of waving little flags. Yes I see how it works.

I think if someone in the UK knows of an assassination plot against the American President they should go and talk to Scotland Yard.

I don't know what is going on but I am having a hell of a lot of trouble getting on here.

The page just seemed like it did not exist for ages.

Anyway, I see ghost has shown up - and then vanished.

My Dear Friends - I will return tomorrow to give validation and proof of the afterlife as the hour is now late and my bed is calling me.

I have some news regarding a possible assassination attempt on the president of the united states. Matthew showed me clearly the president surrounded by people waving small hand held flags. I have a name or area called George Town that is a link with the attempt in someway. I am unsure what to do with the information i have so far So i have posted it here in the hope that this information i received will be looked at.

Matthew"

Seeing as I have nothing better to do for a bit, let's have a look at the above prophecy shall we?

BTW, When did the medium turn into a psychic, he never hinted he had these powers before?

On second thoughts, I don't think I will bother, I have wasted enough thinking time on this 'ghost' now already.

GS, well Mr. Bush is of course in Georgtown which is a suburb of Washting, DC. Americans are notorious for waving little flags when he's out and about either on foot or in a motorcade. And oh my!.....world political leaders must always worry about assassination attempts.
I'm not going to lose any sleep, that's for sure.

I'm just gonna breathe deep and watch things play out, but Mr. Ghost will need to slam dunk me with something so personal and stunning in nature to get me on the team now. Today was painful.

Just wanted to say hello to you all. I started reading the posts at about 10am and have just managed to read all 90 pages! Once I started reading I couldn't stop. Hubby managed 40something pages, but has gone to bed now, and I am joining him asap. My eyes hurt, my head hurts,but you can bet I'll be back on here as soon as I can to see what's happening. icon_biggrin.gif
Take Care,

Epic news is what you missed.... the U.S president might apparently be assassinated!

So the usual ramblings from a medium/psychic/fraud (I don't know which of the 1st two he thinks he is, but I get the distinct feeling that he is the 3rd!).

But don't worry, as Matthew will warn the authorities of his vision to make sure such a thing does not happen, or some powerful forces from well wishers will prevent it happening or it was not going to happen anyway, regardless of which scenario is used some people will still think he was genuine... go figure).

I'd like to know ebjeebe's thoughts on this last snippet of information that 'Ghost' gave and see if she still has 100% belief in this guy.

SMEAGOL: You deserve a prize if you read through all the pages, I don't know where you found the time, I would have to say your hubby got the better part of the deal as it was mostly rambling way before page40 icon_smile.gif

At least the information will be fresher in your mind than most of everyone else.

Seeing as it is a Sunday, Michael might be bored in the office all by himself (or will Janet be there), so hopefully we can see more textual delights to feast our eyes over.

I live in hope....

I shall check back sometime after noon.
