Due to my 24/7 care taking vigil, I have my computer on 24/7 as well. I have really appreciated all I have read and shared on AT in the long hours. The laughter generated here is a great source of Joy for me. It has been, along with serious discussions, a learning tool also. Is that the case for others? I would love to read some lines from others that have struck you as funny and the lessons you took from that, if you wish to share. I might have an odd take on some things and they might not be as funny in the retelling.. but here is a couple that had me rolling round the floor. Thread: Number of Holes in the Human body Post: Oh yes.. its only a matter of time - The Orifice Oracle. My Lesson: Remember always to speak out my mouth!! Thread: New Deck-No Limits Post: 78 Blank cards, They can be ONLY white or you can paint them black Post: Which version is better? My Lesson: Better,Best, Bestest, is subjective to me, and subjective to you. Rosanne in anticipation.

Well AT is just wonderful, as for the laughter I saw a thread with the Title: Queen of Pentacles as a prostitute. My office thought I was nuts as I had tears running down my face, my mom always appears in my reading as the Queen of Pentacles and I had this image in my mind of her wearing a mini skirt and fishnet stockings....which just started me rolling in the ailses. As for helping that came in a little bit of a different way I have been feeling very guilty over something, and I read a signature last night which went something like: Love can create miracles, which put my heart at ease, who ever the signature was Thank you!!!! (Can't remember whose it was.)

I also quite enjoyed this thread http://www.tarotforum.net/showthread.php?t=37922&highlight=ignore of Diana's on her efforts to add herself to her own ignore list. Roseannes effort to establish an Antipodean Society named "The Holden Lawn" had my in hysterics. (Possibly those on the top side of our planet will not get this, but I promise it is very funny). It's a shame unforseen circumcisions led to her being the only member...

Oh, this is a conspiracy to make me be a subscriber isn't it? I leave my credit card very far away from the computer for a good reason...LOL Everytime I find a juicy looking thread that was moved, it's always out of my reach!!! There are too many funny ones that it's hard to pick just one, I think it was the Tarot decks that never quite made it that had me rolling on the floor. It was all about different Tarot decks...just a bunch of goofy Ideas of titles and what sort of decks they would be like. I've been looking for the past hour for the thread, can't seem to find it doing a search, but while I was looking I found this gem! It seems to me that there really is a Redneck Tarot out there, seems I heard about it around two years ago...was it born from this discussion? http://www.tarotforum.net/showthread.php?t=2578&page=1&pp=10

Roseanne usually I am a day late finding the good stuff but this is exactly the kind of thing that keeps me up so late at night...and entertained while I am at work ;) Redneck Tarot...I am roaring, and OMG I think I may slightly resemble that remark. Some of you have archive searches down to a science I think. WalesWoman...how will you ever battle a dustbunny with a cosmic toaster if you never join the sofa lounge :D

There were some very funny comments about increasing psychic powers by dancing naked in the moonlight, but they somehow mysteriously vanished in a flash of light.

Rosanne	28 Feb 2005
Yes Ahria, the Queen of penatacles as a prostitute was funny in parts and quite destroyed my take on her in My Golden Renaissance tarot. Waleswoman, Your thread on Redneck Tarot was very funny. Rednecks must be the same the world over. I wonder if TdM was a Redneck take off- Le Fou's dog is a little small tho. (don't tell Diana I was thinking that!!)I had forgotton about 'Cosmic Toaster' I no longer look in my pantry for food! Fulgour that would be a sight for sore eyes. I am glad my Great Aunt Edith didn't want to increase her powers- that would have cleared the whole town in a flash.(no pun intended) Well once more cheered up and laughing, I remain Rosanne of The Holden Lawn or was that the Mouldy Spawn?
