I have definitely heard someone (sounded like my husband) distinctly call my name while lying in bed wide awake when no one was there. I opened my eyes, but as I said, I was alone. Certainly a curious phenomenon.

Truthseeker, I believe you are correct in Criss' walking on water illusion that all the people in the pool are in on the trick. Again, from watching the TV show that reveals all of magic's great illusions, the masked magician showed how walking on submerged plexi-glass supports gives a great...

Let's be clear; Criss Angel is a "magician" or "illusionist." All of his feats are tricks. (He's been awarded Illusionist of the Year several times in past years and is a great performance artist.) The Masked Magician show on TV gives away some of his secrets, including the wood chipper...

In Barcelona the official language is Catalon, a mixture of French and Spanish, but definitely distinctive and a language in its own right. I wouldn't spend too much time brushing up on your Spanish. Just have a good time...I knew neither language when I visited there several years ago.

Where are those surveys? What is the breakdown of men:women on this forum anyway? Or are the women just more reticent to speak up, I wonder, and more prone to lurking?

Obviously, the legless woman was a plant and the other half of "her" (a very small person) remained standing and hidden in "her" skirt. A neat, unexpected effect, however, and certainly startling. Nice trick!

CapnG, You are limiting the situation; the Roswell crash could have resulted in alien survivors who were captured and later collaborated with our scientists/military. Just a thought...as long as we are speculating out of the box.

Clever retort. Thanks. (I'm just as glad that you don't mention the list offenders by name; I'm a little wary making pronouncements about others based pretty much on offhand personal beliefs. Let people form their own opinions from their own readings and "research.")

I appreciate your telling your story, Ally, and plan to comment later when I have more time to reply. Have you ever had a conscious OBE (out of body experience)?

I'm sorry that Myeo still isn't doing very well. Maybe she will do better back at home if the vet was primarily trying to feed her. Give her some comfort and continue to hope for the best. I'm thinking of you and wishing you both well.:frown:

What is your cat's name? I'm glad she doesn't have cancer, but I know you are still concerned with the weight loss and other symptoms. Maybe a few days of conservative treatment/feeding will be just the thing. Hold a good thought (as I will). :)

Logical, "explosive" evidence. Thanks for bringing this up yet again, despite its devastating implications for our country!

The question remains, who does that Big Foot belong to? I want to see the rest of this non-hairy beastie...only then can we let the matter go once and for all. :redface:

I'm sorry that your kitty is still struggling; I hope the vet can come up with some effective treatment. One of my daughters once had a guinea pig that was having a difficult labor. We ended up taking her to the vet which resulted in an emergency C-section ($250 plus, many years ago), but she...
