                               Cards of Woo-woo

The majority of Dad's books [1] were about, in order of volume, golfing,
Buddhism, mental health, and poker (including this one [2] by the same guy
that wrote _The Neo-Tech Discovery_ [3]). But then Bunny came across one that
is so out there it's way past left field—Introduction to the Cards: A
comprehensive guide to understanding the ancient science of a deck of cards
(here's the website [4] for the curious—I could not find the “book” on
Amazon, curiously enough). I could understand if Dad thought it had something
to do with the mathematics of cards or poker, but even a cursory glance at it
reveals it's nothing but Tarot with regular playing cards. It's hard to take
this seriously. Even the the book itself doesn't take itself seriously:
“Cards of Illumination Inc. takes no responsiblity for any interpretations
presented.”

Wow.

I wonder what made Dad pay $5.00 (back in October of 2007) for this? Were the
authors cute or something? What an odd find.
