According to the BBC... the Italian police are on the lookout for a criminal with eerie mind control powers!

Italian supervillains. Man. That can't possibly go well.

As long as he doesn't use a Warhol to line a cat pan, it's all good by me.

Also, email me your post address please. I have a chick tract for weds and she asked me to post it you. Thankee!

I'll be really interested to see how the trial goes. Can they charge him with anything? Are there even laws against hypnotism? "All I did was look at them and tell them to give me the money. Is it really my fault they did?"

This is the beginning. In the future, when costumed men rule our skies, fending off alien invaders; when the earth is threatened by the weather domination devices of observatory-dwelling lunatics; when organized crime control consists of flying fists and kickass Judo holds interspersed with the blasting of laser eyes; we will peer into history, wondering when, when on Earth did things start becoming so very mad. And we will be able to look back to this moment, and we will silently say to ourselves, "Yes. Yes, this was the moment."

It will likely be treated as any other confidence scam. Hypnosis being seen as equivalent to winning their trust the harder way.

Hmm ... given that the fictional hypnotist proto-supers came around the turn of the previous century, should we be looking for the flyers about 2040?

[chanlemur.livejournal.com]

Yes! Sure! 2040 it is! You, just, um, keep on expecting that date! Yes!
