Scammers

Bill visits psychics to predict future fame
for his fortunes and even a lottery claim.
But each psychic masks
this question Bill asks …
“how come you must ask me what’s my name?”

G'day Connie … I'm pretty sure the mark hands the psychic what they need to know without realizing it, but to even do this is a skill. Catch you soon Connie - Lindsay

I was surprised to read Aussies are asking, "How come" instead of "Why?" but always appreciate the laugh! Aloha! Rico

G'day Rico … plenty of gullible people in this fair land for a psychic to make a handsome living. It's a fair question you ask though - Lindsay

Good point. I don't believe in psychics but I have to admit some are pretty good. A real skill to fool someone they way they do. Have a great day.

G'day David … they are a bit like magicians I guess. Very clever at what they do, and many believe what they're told, but of course politicians, salespersons, advertisers etc. are no different - thanks David; have a safe Easter - Lindsay
