How Can You Tell If You Have Dandruff Or Lice



I have powers

is true, I have a half silly powers, but no less striking. No good for much: just to see a few hours in advance what books I find at the fair.

To you I look funny, but I was a little scary. Come on, one thing is not having any power at all and another is to have a power, more useless it is. The world is changing dramatically before verification how wonderful rationally inexplicable.

As if that was not enough power in luck I have had absolutely useless (and I repeat no less wonderful and scary) today has become downright harmful. And that leads me to consider if this will be the essential feature of all supernatural powers.

As you know, almost every Sunday I go to the Feria de Tristan Narvaja. And almost every Saturday night I stayed in my house talking to Remo, on whatever. Well, sometimes that has happened in those talks rather eventful night and I expressed aloud: "Tomorrow on the show I find this book." I have met many times, but always happens is quite touching, especially because it is books that come looking for months and even years. And especially because it is not something that occurs to me that every Saturday night and guesses a few times. No. Every time I said I would find a book I found, meaning that even if they were a few times, the success rate is a resounding 100%

Once was "Profane Love" by Catherine Dunn. Remo is that he had read with enthusiasm and returned it before I could read it. So one day I had no doubt that the next morning I would find at the fair. And I found it. It may seem impressive to those not used to seeing week after week the same books. Simply put, the probability that one day to another displayed the book we are looking for months, tends to zero. And it happened not only with Dunn, whose book had information that tended to appear here and there but I never encounter it, but off unique books of Elmore Leonard, JD Salinger and Kurt Vonnegut now.

Remo is that yesterday I asked if by chance he had "Galapagos." Her question came out of nowhere, for nothing and smart and no, I have no "Galapagos". But immediately afterwards said "Tomorrow I'll find 'Welcome to the Monkey House', in English or translated. Why did I say that? "We were not talking about" Galapagos ", which Nor did he have? It would be simply because he would find "Welcome to the Monkey House" The next morning, and no "Galapagos." So, I went to the fair for Cerro Largo, twisted by Tristan Narvaja and went to Ruben. And there was, at $ 50, a book that makes it look ... 10 years?

But earlier I said that my powers have become useless downright harmful. Why? Because while the intense thrill of finding the book led me to buy it right away and not noticing anything, once coming to my house I noticed that the book was a library. More precisely from the library by Remo. How do you keep him without feeling like a bastard? Who gives me back my $ 50? Farewell to the Monkey House. Farewell to $ 50.

I have powers ...
