the I Ching
Penelope helo again
teeboy welcome back hawthorne
anon2 Everything I read in the I Ching seemed to
be coming true
Penelope who's flipper and are we fellow flippers?
anon1 What was your fortune anon2?
anon2 Some ancient mystical force in Sicily,
perhaps
anon2 My fortune was: "beware of the
one-eyed man, he will betray you"
anon2 Spooky, huh?
anon1 Tell us more anon2 our time is runmning
out
Penelope wowweee
anon1 the credits are upons us
anon2 So, later that day I went with my producer
to get some props made
Penelope cool
anon2 To a little workshop in Palermo
anon1 That's where she's from!!!!
anon2 We went to be introduced to the boss
anon2 And he was wearing a tee-shirt with a huge
eyeball on it!
Penelope OH MY GOD
anon2 As you may imagine, I freaked out.
anon1 Scarey
Penelope OH YEH
anon2 My producer and I looked at each other,
mouths agape
