That’s Deanna Troi’s level of psychic wisdom.

That beats the 10-seconds-too-late psychic. He steps into the street and gets hit by a bus as she says, “Watch o….”

My friends and I once, while street-testing some chemical enhancements, decided that civilization exists for the purpose of allowing inept people to live long enough to breed. This when we realized that we could safely cross the street WHEN THE WALKING-MAN ICON was lit! Thereby to get to the side of the road where we could catch a taxi downtown to eat.

Must be true, I’m still here to tell you about it.

It’s doubtful that those who favor short-term gains would see a problem with this situation. If anything, they would likely invest in it ASAP.

Pop Quiz – What do you call a cute psychic? Psy-Chic!

*i’ll show myself out, thank you.

She’s good. The signs do look propitious.

I’ll run him over with my skateboard!

There was a sign over a psychics place that said:

“Closed due to unforeseen circumstances”

Jealous.The cosmos in my garden don’t tell ME nuthin’…

Well, she’s got a higher % of right calls than any other psychic in the world.

You can play psychic yourself while waiting for the light to change from red to green. (If you watch for the light changing to yellow for the cross-traffic, you can get pretty good at timing it just right.)

And the cynic says ‘’You may cross, but can you?’’

If he’s trying to get to the bar across the street, let the spirits guide you.

throwing a spotlight on the glaringly obvious? Must be D.C.

And he still gets run over, because it was the will of the Gods, or in the cards, or the fates decreed it be. A fool and his money are soon parted. Usually by a woman.

The sad part is that psychics, of any term, find enough gullible people to make a living off of.

Not safe to cross right after the light turns here in the mid-Atlantic… 2-3 drivers often run the reds.

“I see a short trip in your future… You will… cross a street! Yes! it is clear – but you should hurry before the light changes.”

When my oldest grandson ( who’ll be 27 this week ) was little, I used to perform a magic trick when he was in the car. I would snap my fingers and the traffic light would change on command. He “really knew I was magic” because his mother couldn’t do that.

We have a light near our house that appears to be “on demand.” It turns green as cars approach it. Drivers who live in the area know that they don’t have to come to a complete stop so they have a running head start on any pedestrian in the walkway.

In the opposite direction it goes from green to yellow to red in 6 seconds. If you are not already half way across when the light turns yellow, you’re no going to make it.

You have to gauge on whether to enter the intersection by how close the approaching car is.

I predict that when you are half-way across the intersection, the sign will switch to “Don’t Walk”.

These people would be wealthy if they could even see into the past.

Works every time.

In Seattle you may be one with the cosmos, walk with the light and be maimed by a bicycle. They don’t have to obey traffic laws, you see.

She has the best record of any psychic in the business.

Deana Troi or Miss Cleo? Anytime I ever called the Sidekick hotline I always got Tonto.

The Very short term psychic (around the corner from the short term psychic’s left): “You best cross at the next corner.”

But, before crossing, don’t forget to Tip her a dollar for her services.
