The Wisdom of Sylvia Browne

[RSLancastr]

I'm at home, sick with the flu, watching Sylvia Browne on the Montel Williams Show (I figure, I'm already nauseous and have the sh**s, I might as well watch her...).

A man in the audience asked her about two men he knew who had recently died in unrelated incidents.

Syliva asked him which of the two men was the "thicker" one. When he answered, she said "and the other is... more... angular?" He agreed. She then said "because they are both standing right behind you." The man teared up.

So, given that there were two people, she psychically knew that one of them was "thicker" than the other. Wow. What are the chances of that?

She then said (I'm paraphrasing, but this is close): "Have you ever noticed how often people die within a few months of their birthday?"

Uh, yeah. Even if you define "a few" as being as little as three, this would mean a spread of six months - half the year. So yes, I would say that at least 50% of people die within "a few months" of their birthday. Brilliant observation.

She is now talking to a woman whose daughter was murdered by an unknown party or parties. Sylvia is just throwing out totally unverifiable nonsense about the murderer and the thoughts the daughter was thinking when she died.

This is difficult to watch.

I'm strongly considering putting together a StopKaz-type website about Sylvia. I need to decide if I can stand to watch a lot of this, as that's part of what it would require to do the site I envision. I would definitely need to stock up on BP meds. :mad:

Sorry you are feeling bad...

I think a similar site with sylvia as the target would be great, however, she has money and money buys lawyers. I don't think she would sit by and just watch.

I really dislike sylvia with an unbelievable intensity.:mad:

How about the questions from the audience such as, "Where do you think my career path is going?" :confused:

How could Sylvia pssoibly get that wrong? I was watching on a "Sylvia Brown Wensday"(that's acutally what they call it) once when I was home sick and Sylvia's response to one of the "career path" quesitons was something like, " I see you working with people." :boggled: What job on the face on the Earth does not invlove working with people in some way?

It was a good thing I was sick or else I would have put my foot through the T.V. screen! :mad:

Ick. You must be feeling doubly sick, Rob. Not a good feeling, I imagine. Get well soon.

As my avatar shows, I have video evidence that Sylvia was destroyed in a psychic “incident” and was replaced by a Sylviabot. It runs on a shockingly simple algorithm (about 3 lines of code) and is indistinguishable from the real thing.

I must say I like your avatar, Ryan.

Maybe I should have my next avatar shaking a Sylvia rag doll or something.

I like it when she tells people about their guardian angels or "spirit guides". Sometimes she tells them not only the sex of the spriit, but the name of the spirit as well.

No one's ever proven her wrong.

She is the most accurate psychic ever!

It's true. :)

I hope you are feeling better. Personally, watching SB makes me ill. I can barely stand to look at her photo.

If you decide to do the site, I'm sure some of our families who have come out about her would be glad to contribute their story.

I think a stop Sylvia site is a fantastic idea.
If you decide to do it, I'd definitely be interested in helping out anyway in I can.

[TruthSeeker]

Get better soon!

I think Sylvia would be a good target, but her believers are very rabid. They would not be easy to dissuade. Also, as already mentioned, she would probably take action against you.

Take care.
