I do, however, believe in Tarot. <grin> Recent convert, got my own
deck and everything! <sticks out chest proudly> Specifically the
Faerie Oracle deck, drawn by Brian Froud. It's absolutely gorgeous...

I'm a Leo and a Snake, but I've never really bought into that stuff much,
but I suppose a few of the qualities apply to me, more so the Leo than the
Snake. It is sort of amusing to read about now and then though.  My husband
and I always like to compare fortunes from our fortune cookies and talk
about them, but we don't really take them seriously.

I did a Tarot reading with a bunch of friends from work several years ago
and it was fun and pretty entertaining.  I agree, the cards really are neat
to look at.  I didn't think it was terribly accurate, much less than 50%.
Of course, I didn't volunteer much feedback.  Some of my co-workers at the
time really got into it though.

Scary Movies:

The most scary or at least the most disturbing movie I ever say was "Savior"
about the Bosnian wars.  I guess the reason it bothered me so much is that
it could have been real.  I was also a new mother at the time, which didn't
help much.  I didn't even see it at the theatre and was doing other things
during the movie at certain points to keep from looking directly at the TV,
but it still bothered me for a long time.

A second would be "Seven" and I did see that at the theatre.  Very creepy.

When I was 6 my parents took me to see "A man called Horse."  The must have
assumed I would fall asleep, but it really bothered me a lot.  I saw it
later on TV and it was still pretty icky, but not as bad as I remembered,
but I'd gotten a bit more used to seeing violent stuff by then.
