I was just in Barnes and Noble with Sam. A man heard me talking to her, and he comes over "oh are you Irish' (meaning both of us I think)'Yes' says I 'Ah yes I thought so' he says, so far so usual.
There is a brief pause, then he launches into:
'I found a crystal you know, it came from the heart of a supernova, it has mystical healing powers, I am going to put it on youtube.'
'Erm, ok?'
'Yeah I used it to get rid of a kidney stone, it's totally gone! I haven't had a day's illness since I used it.'
Sam and I go back to extremely obviously looking at the book we had been inspecting before he came over until he goes away.
Me to Sam: the heart of a meteor?
Sam: no a supernova.
Me: isn't the heart of a supernova like, realllly heavy?...
I don't think crazy people should be allowed look just like everyone else, there should be a rule about this.

Ah for goodness sake, could you not have borrowed it, since he was being so friendly? We could have cleared up all sorts of minor irritations with it - I think I have a bunion forming, and there's a bit of RSI in my right wrist...
Would a supernova crystal go through the postal system without frying all the electronics?
I don't think putting it in the post would be a very safe idea; a supernova is kinda like a sun gone postal. The combination of extreme healing and scary pun could be all bad.
Eek, I just read that back. Talk about stream of vaguely associated thoughts... can you tell that I am tired?
LOL, you entertain me a lot :D
