If there were word-bubbles above the heads of some of the Tarot characters, what would they say? Here are some of mine... Rider-Waite- 7 of Pentacles: "Hmmm... why are there coins growing on my blackberry bush?" The Sun: "Look, Ma! No hands!" 9 of Pentacles: "I swear, if this bird poops on me one more time, you can find someone ELSE to pose for this painting!" 7 of Cups: "Woah. That's it. Time to join AA." 6 of Swords: "Are we there yet?" The Moon: a voice from off the edge of the card- "SHUT UP YOU STUPID DOGS! I'M TRYING TO SLEEP!" - perhaps followed by a boot, thrown with great force. The only other one I can think of right now is the Empress in the Sharman-Caselli deck. She has a very shocked and prudish look on her face. I picture her saying "You're telling me I'm the Goddess of WHAT???" Any other "tarot comics"?

8 of Cups My grandmother started walking five miles a day when she was 60. Now she's 97 years old and we don't know where the heck she is. Hermit If you are going to try cross-country skiing, start with a small country.

Robin Wood deck images used. 4 Pentacles: "Lousy outdoor pay toilet! Everyone can see me." Temperance: "At no time do my hands leave my arms." Knight Swords: "Hi ho, Silver!" 5 Swords: "Oh, come on guys, that stabbing was just a joke! A joke, right? You guys can't take a joke!" 7 Pentacles(bemused): "I was hoping for corn." 9 Swords: "3 am and those Jehovah's are knocking again!" 5 Cups: "Awwh, crap, another hangover. To hell with this lousy wine." The Fool(Dog thinking): "Bejeezus, what a fashion victim!" 3 Wands: "Is that the Titanic out there?" The Empress: "Barefoot, pregnant, and spinning his damned cloak. I can't wait for Women's Lib." The Tower: "Bungee jumping involves ropes? Now you tell me!" 10 Swords: "Man, all I said was that I hated Aeclectic Tarot!" Judgement: "But I don't want a Brazilian...." 7 Swords: "Ha! King Arthur and those knights think they're so clever..."

Justice - Morgan Greer She's thinking ' How much longer do I have to sit here, I'm starting to cramp and I'm gonna drop the scales' Nine of Cups - Morgan Greer. The man on this card looks flushed and happy and slightly tipsy because he's just drunk the entire wine contents of the nine cups lol Ace of Cups 'I wish this birdbath was a little bigger, I just can't get my wings in and whats with the hand and the glowing water, its enough to blind' The Devil - Morgan Greer I'm just gonna sit here with candle wax dropping over the back of my head and glare :D
