computerized tarot??
as i was eating breakfast this morning, i noticed my grandma has a tarot program for her computer sitting on her desk, and i've been baffled by it all day long. although i am sometimes interested in certain "metaphysical things" (i can't think of a better term...), tarot just isn't one of them. even still, the idea of a computerized tarot deck seems absurd to me, since you don't ever touch the deck, you don't shuffle it, nothing - the computer program just shows whatever it's been programmed to show when you click your mouse, however computer programs "randomly" do this. i can sort of understand a belief that when you select a card, you can have some sort of spiritual connection or something that leads you to draw a certain one, but i can't see the same thing happening with the computer. i guess the lack of physical contact kills that idea for me, though i guess that may be a bit absurd, since the two aren't that different. and i have no idea why this is even occupying my mind as much as it is. but it is. and i guess i've rambled in circles enough around it to be done with it. but i think i'll still be needing to ask around, get some more input before i can really let it go...

I am right there with you Ms. Golden. Computerized tarot is just ricockulous! Humph!! It's just a load of bologna! And I don't mean the Oscar Meyer kind!!
Anywho...I am in desperate need for some lyrics...what is that song that mentions Dick and Jane on the Some Girls cd? I left that cd at my parent's house and so I can listen to it right now? What does that song say? Do you have lyrics? HELP!
the song is called robot city...
jehovah knocking at my door
what can i say
i give him some
he wanted more
so i paid
and now he's gone
another round for everyone
i just wanna be your sugar mom
dick and jane were married on tv
and new jersey cried itself to sleep
they tried not buying anything today
inside robot city
dirty virgin lying about her age
she loves frankie b
she dropped several hundred on her hair
and underwear
make me fit in a tiny place
old lady giving me dirty looks
'cause i touched her space
dick and jane were married on tv
and florida cried itself to sleep
they tried not buying anything today
inside robot city
pick it up and put it in
then you go back and do it over and over
Laurel...you RULE...just like O'Doyle...
