Dr. Karen Stollznow describes The Best Hot Reading [she's] Ever Had:
I didn’t provide any feedback to Pete but asked him if he was seeing anything else from my grandmother. There was yet another long pause. “She said something about looking behind the wardrobe.” This was an amazing “hit”! These had been among the final words spoken by my grandmother. I was admittedly impressed with Pete’s reading, but suspicious at his accuracy.
With very good reason...

Evidently, I rock!

Ha!

I've had a few readings done and all I have ever seen is the psychic crash and burn. But then, those were cold readings and I gave them as little as possible. I absolutely refuse to ask them questions. I figure if they are psychic, they should be able to tell me something about me that they can't possibly know without my helping them.

Uncertainty may make you uncomfortable. Certainty makes you ridiculous.

Just your name would be a good start.

What does my name tell you?

Well, if the psychic could just give you that, without ever knowing you, I might be a bit impressed. But I'm sure one of the first things they ask for is your name. The reply should be "Don't you know?"

Oh I see. Yep.
