That's amazing!
You know, folks, I think Gregory just has, single-handedly, proved the presence of aliens on earth, beyond any possibility of argument at all!

You surely meant to thrust your hands under your TOWEL, right? You wouldn't use any other cover for your tarot basket, right? Not in preparation for a day like this, right?nisaba said:Oh, the choices. I could just thrust my hands under the cover of my Tarot basket and grab the first wrapped deck that my fingers touch.
<slightly huffed> I may not know all my Douglas Adams references to the satisfaction of Geeks Everywhere, but I do know my Pratchett witches, thank you very much.<gravely> I don't think it should be done. Terry Pratchett in the Discworld series had a character called Nanny Ogg, a rude, robust woman who used to sing tender little ballads like "The Wizard's Staff Has a Knob on the End" and "The Hedgehog Can Never Be Buggered At ALL".
I barely dare say it, but (possibly)... The Power Animal?SphinYote said:I think I shall do this spread with the cards face up, and choose what would be most improbable for each position.
Now, where's a deck with a penguin in it...?
<mortified look> The two Tarotistas who have actually been in my house recently can attest to teh fact that I keep (kept) my decks in a huge wicker basket with nothing else than a small, green ... towel over them. <blushing madly> More recently, because the TarotGarden quite inconsiderately threw more decks at me and they've started falling out, they've moved into a capacious ornamental seagrass box. Said towel doesn't cover them completely any more, and there is room to grow. So to speak.Cat* said:You surely meant to thrust your hands under your TOWEL, right?

Wow. I need to look him up. Why didn't GreenMoonBeam ever quote him at me?Cat* said:Just that I was waiting for your Vogon Poetry Spread. Which may just as well be about the best ways of protecting oneself from ever witnessing a reading/printing/online publishing of Vogon poetry. Or attempting to beat the Vogons in this discipline. There was only one human being who ever dared to do that, if accidentally: William Topaz McGonagall (no relations to Minerva). Which nicely closes the circle of Douglasian-Pratchettic thought, by the way, because he was the inspiration for the position of the gonnagle (= battle poet) among Pratchett's Nac Mac Feegle. Which I am explaining for whoever might not know that already.
Cat* said:So. What about that Vogon Poetry Spread?
I barely dare say it, but (possibly)... The Power Animal?
Or that other deck Nisaba dug out from who-knows-where, with the three Olympic penguins. What was it called again?

I have just the solution for you:More recently, because the TarotGarden quite inconsiderately threw more decks at me and they've started falling out, they've moved into a capacious ornamental seagrass box. Said towel doesn't cover them completely any more, and there is room to grow. So to speak.
Try these for starters:Wow. I need to look him up. Why didn't GreenMoonBeam ever quote him at me?
