Hmm, so I have been thinking about the ole "hypnosis" diet and exercise plan. I know I am pretty susceptible so whatever they would say I would probably do. Therein lies the problem. What if the hypnotherapist says,"and you will give me all your money and account information". Maybe I should take a hidden recorder in with me to the office. Then I will know what he says, cause sometimes they say "you will not remember a thing". Supposedly it works on some people and not others. Really hypnosis seems to be just a preliminary step to get into a gym and suggestions to develop healthy habits. Or maybe it is wacko science. When I was at Texas Tech we had a guy come every year to hypnotise the students. I think his name was Tom Delucca and he would set up his stuff in the gym for our fall festival. Hundreds of students would come in and he would select members from the audience. He then made everyone do crazy stuff like pretend they had no clothes on or whenever someone said chicken the other person would cluck. It was funny. The hypnotist would say,"I'm hungry for some chicken" and the person would go "Baaawk". It was pretty unbelievable. A lot of people said he musta had actors play the part, but some people know those that were selected and said that it had worked. In the end I concluded that half of the people selected were paid to pretend to be hypnotized while the other half was unsuspecting victims. So I figure why not try hypnosis - it does cost 338 for 5 sessions at 1 to 2 hours a session. Is that a rip off? If it doesn't work it definitely is a ripoff, but if it does is that a good price? I can see him implanting the chicken suggestion. I'll be at work and start clucking out of nowhere. Bawwwk!

Thought of the Day
"Have you ever met a proctologist? They usually have a very good sense of humor. You meet a proctologist at a party, don't walk away. Plant yourself there because you will hear the funniest stories you've ever heard. See, no one wants to admit to them that they stuck something up there. Never. It's always an accident. Every proctologist story ends in the same way... 'It was a million to one shot, doc, million to one.' "
