The whole is greater than the sum of its parts. No question of that!

Paul R Wrote:A similar (but by no means as serious) story....
When Wifey and I bought our house, we got it from two ladies, one of whom was a feng shui consultant, with her office decked out in feng shui wallpaper. She swore by this feng shui business, going so far as to drawing up each of us a feng shui plan. (Perhaps we should have guessed at this stage as to how clueless she was - according to her calculations, Wifey should have been sleeping in the east of the house and I had to sleep in the west!.... then again, maybe she was rightRolleyes !)
Anyway, a few weeks later, we had Wifey's brother and his wife over to stay. His wife speaks fluent Chinese. She took one look at the feng shui wallpaper in the office and pulled me aside to tell me that it was hung upside down.
Although on the surface it's a funny story, the sad thing is that people paid (and still pay, as far as I know) for her feng shui services.

That's great, Paul!

Why, Biggles, my hobbies are reading, music, and writing lyrics. And in my long-ago, mostly-forgotten youth, a steady diet of acid and Dylan. How could any of those create "an overactive imagination?":confused:Ah-deer don't make a whole lotta sense to me...
