So I'm out walking the dogs in Cherry Creek this afternoon, and a guy, in his late-20's/early-30's is walking towards me, talking on his cell phone.

I overhear the following line, delivered in a slightly camp, but annoyed tone:

"Well, the psychics told me it would be over, a year ago. It's still not over."

This then, set me musing...

Was he ringing the Customer Service help-line for Miss Cleo & Co.?

If he wasn't, what sort of friend was it on the other end of the phonecall, that didn't have the decency to say, "For God's sake, get a grip, you idiot! It's not real!"?

What's the statue of limitations on correctly predicting an event, which then doesn't occur? I mean, did they give him some sort of 12-month warranty?

Could he get a refund?

Are the psychics going to know it's him calling to demand the refund, and just not answer the phone?

What the hell was it, that he was hoping would be over a year ago?

If it's still going on, a year after it was supposed to have stopped, why the heck hasn't he tried other methods to stop it.

OK. I really need to get a job. My mind clearly has way too much spare energy at the moment.
