Welcome to Viviscopes: This is where we take a small slice of your life, and using bibliomancy, divine your future with it. For the bibliomancy this week, I used “A Treasury of Deception,†by Michael Farquhar.
Now think about the following question:
What did you lie about most recently? This includes both spoken and unspoken deceptions.
Choose the most correct answer from the list below, and see your future (for this week).
I DO NOT LIE.
In 2002, a company calling itself Clonaid announced to the world that it had created a child out of the skin cells taken from its mother. this week you are all talk and no action where family is concerned. Try to tone it down –or at least do a little of what you say you are going to do.
I HAVE TOLD SO MANY FIBS RECENTLY, COULDN’T SAY WHAT THE LAST ONE WAS ABOUT.
“She was consumed by blind and raw ambition,†noted her first editor Vivian Aplin-Brownlee. “It was obvious, but it doesn’t deny talent.†The people around you know you, good points and bad. You may as well own up to those things, too.
MOST RECENTLY, I COMPLETE FABRICATED A STORY WITH MANY ELEMENTS.
A contest of blood and iron,†as Bismarck called it, was guaranteed to arouse the Teutonic spirit and rally those reluctant states, like Bavaria, that were wary of Prussian militarism and dominance. This week you will have to appeal to the lowest common denominator (sex, monster truck rallies, competition) to get others to follow your lead.
APPEARANCE/(HEIGHT, WEIGHT, ETC.)/NAME (INCL. FAKE IDs)
As a result, William Ireland became a one-man factory of fake Shakespeareana. You have over-mechanized your life. Do what it takes to smell the roses–change your routine, visit a friend.
MONEY/WEALTH.
Egyptian president Hosni Mubarak once cooked a terrorist’s goos, with a little bit of ketchup. Both cooking for friends and one-upping your enemies is encouraged this week, especially if you can manage it simultaneously.
FAMILY, CHILDREN, HOME.
So reckless was he, in fact, that he even shared a mistress, Judith Campbell Exner, with mob boss Sam Giancana. Say, you wouldn’t be tempting fate just for the thrill of it, would you? Tired of it yet? What about now? Or do you want to get hurt first?
FAME/STATUS/BREEDING/CLASS
The good doctor, a professor of Stanford University, developed two bogus devises he called “the dynamizer†and the “ocilloclast,†which were nothing more than a jumble of wires and other useless components described by physicist Robert Millikan as the type “a ten year old would build to fool an eight year old.†If you are not doing your best, your peers will notice this week.
WORK.
“All I can say,†the captain of the Wyoming later told a reporter, “is the little guy put on one hell of a tour inspection.†Your Napoleon complex and type A tendencies will serve you well this week
RELATIONSHIPS/SEX (Partnerships, boyfriend/girlfriend, including cheating)
McGraw-Hi11 and Life were so convinced of Irving’s integrity that a subsequent disavowal of the forthcoming book by the Hughes organization barely rattled them. You are in denial. Pull your head out of your butt and listen to others–even the little guy.
OTHERS, INCLUDING FRIENDS, ENEMIES, SOCIAL GROUPS
The fuehrer was thrilled by the news. Your corrupt, corrupt ego will get a real boost this week. Enjoy, but do not confuse this with anything actually positive.
ALCOHOL/DRUGS/FOOD
It was unbelievable that it fooled me,†remarked one. “A psychologist could explain it better than I can.†You may “lose it†at some point this week. Spend some time alone (or with a therapist) and get yourself together.
RELIGION/BELIEFS/PHILOSOPHY/CREATIVITY
“Advertisements contain the only truths to be relied upon in a newspaper.†The best lies are the most subtle. Your cynicism shall serve you well
I am afraid of this thing that stalks in the night, with gray skin, big black eyes, porcupine spines and the face of the devil. I am afraid the chupacabra will drain the blood of my goat…ok, my cat.
