"Psychic" has terrific excuse for all the failures...

I love it.

#1727: Laura Henderson

In a not very surprising turn of events, when two young girls disappeared from Evansdale, Iowa, in 2012 (we don’t know the outcome of the case, unfortunately) and a $50,000 reward was offered, the local sheriff’s department was swamped with calls from psychics who wanted to help (but who were presumably uninterested in the money). Apparently, they received over 80 tips from alleged psychic mediums claiming to know the girls’ location, and, as the chief deputy laconically put it, “no two are having the same vision I guess you could say.” Self-proclaimed psychic Laura Henderson of Cedar Rapids, however, admitted that “no psychic can answer every question,” but “certainly you can get impressions, if someone’s alive their energy comes across stronger and feels different to a psychic in terms of how it comes across.” That would of course help explain the discrepancy between the different wild guesses visions. Of course, we all know that if one of them by coincidence guessed correctly, Henderson would take it as proof that psychic abilities exist and are useful.

1. “no psychic can answer every question,”

Certainly not ones questioning their "abilities".

2. Maybe all 80 should hold hands to increase their psychic strength.

They could create a psychic circle to focus all that energy and open up a vortex into other planes of existence.

3. Or something like that.

And they'd still probably come up with "the bodies will be found near water" as if that were something special.
