Uri Geller Buys Elvis' House

quote:
The psychic purchased the Tennessee residence in an online auction on eBay for $905,100 "We are unbelievably pleased. This is a piece of history," said Geller.





The great spoonbender of course had to put a woo-woo spin on it:

quote:
"As the clock closed on the bidding (on) Sunday (May 14), I felt intuitively I got the price," he added. "Suddenly the radio started playing an Elvis song. That was Elvis telling me we got the house."




Obviously, though, Uri didn't read the appraisal of the house's value:

quote:
The four-bedroom, two-bathroom ranch house owned by Michael and Cindy Hazen was appraised at $261,700


He paid $640,000 more than it's worth! I'll bet Elvis is still laughing at him!

The foundation of morality is to . . . give up pretending to believe that for which there is no evidence, and repeating unintelligible propositions about things beyond the possibliities of knowledge.
