My favorite present was the Derren Brown book, it is absolutely fascinating! Tommorow I'm going to try hypnotising my brother

(I already failed at several things in this book so it shall probably go wrong, but then again, I have also succeeded in many other things in it so who knows it may go right

)

PS. Derren Brown is a legend

EDIT: For example did you know that there isn't really such a thing as hypnotism? It runs along two principles, the first is ideomotor suggestions, so if someone thinks really hard about something they will subconciously perform that action, and the second is that experiment where they had someone give electric shocks to a fake person, whenever they gave a wrong answer, and in return they would hear screaming noises. Everytime an answer was wrong they would increase the voltage up until levels which would kill someone, in which the screams stopped. 60% of people gave shocks -beyond- this level, purely because a man dressed as a scientist told them to. Basically, so long as people -believe- you are in control, they will do as you tell them, and so as long as they -believe- you are putting them into a trance like state, subconciously they shall think they are in one, and react accordingly

(on topic) I also hope my brother is gonna get me a better prosseser for a computer that my biggest brother gave me for working for him, but it was a peice of jhon crappers last name. then i can have a good computer, and so can my brother, and then we'll fix up my moms computer so we'll have three top of the line (for us anyway, not sure abut all you computer wizzes and rich in the sence of monatary goods people) copmuters.

(off topic) OH MY GOD I NEVER KNEW THAT!! But it does make since, 'caus they've done other studies, this guy gave three people surguries for there knees, with one person they gave the full surdgery, the other half of it, and the last he did nothing, and (here's the crazy thing) THEY ALL SAID THAT THEY FELT BETTER!!!

(religious rambling) It's about faith you know. If you have faith that it's actually happening than it will happen (unleas it's something that defies phisics, or goes against god's will of course) and that is exactly why if i ever get some sort of really bad desies, i'm gonna stay on my meds, and not just say that god will heal me, caus sometimes he don, and sometimes you don't gots enough faith.

ok, i'm done.

Well, i guess i can afford to kill the last 10, they arent doing much. maybe ill let one of them live, hes walking across the Pok deserts with naut but 15,000g of potatoes (well, at least when he started...) so i wonder how far he'll get.
