[Miss Marple]

Two words:

stone soup.

[Kozak]

During the procedure, the stones' vibrations radiate into the water, Weiner said. She compared the procedure to the way homeopathic remedies are created -- the steps are repeated several times to make a pure mixture.

And I smell pure essence of bullsh%t.

[governsleastgovernsbest]

Nice Jewish ladies like Susan Weiner used to make chicken soup for the soul. Now they make gem-infused essences. Oy.

[Behind Liberal Lines]

A good example of another reason why Ithaca is the City of Evil.

This woman does not actually live in Ithaca, but in Trumansburg, about ten miles north.

Over the past twenty years, as they drove their own property taxes higher and higher in the city, the Ithacites have slowly migrated north to T-burg. In the process they are turning this once-bucolic small, conservative town into "Ithaca North."

Spreading liberalism like a cancer, is just one more reason why Ithaca is the City of Evil.

[AppyPappy]

Weiner displays the stones for the energy they send out to the planet and to those who live on it.

Palo?

[WellsFargo94]

Let's not forget the power of a hotdog, purified in a warm bun, surrounded by the tangable smells of relish, mustard, and ketchup, to fill a hungry stomach at a baseball game.

[WellsFargo94]

on a more serious note...

"I've actually gotten on a plane to go somewhere specifically to buy rocks," she said.

This is a nice tax write off for some exotic vacations.

[driftless]

Fine. I'll go there and get this nutty babe to shine those rocks on my aged legs. If I then go to the nearest playground and realize one of my biggest dreams of being able to slam dunk, THEN I'LL BELIEVE!!!

[mewzilla]

Slow propaganda day at the IJ.

[Fixit]

It's all fun and games until these freaks start to seek Blue Cross/Shield reimibursement for their "treatments".

[genefromjersey]

I'm sure she'll enjoy a prosperous relationship with Ithaca's "upper crust" : the bored wives of the " Intellectual Elite ".

[general_re]

This is why I could never live in Ithaca. I could handle the watermelon politics, I could handle the sanctimony and the smug self-righteousness that all good leftists have in spades, but what I can't stand, even for a minute, is this ridiculous New-Agey crystal-gripping pyramid-hat transcendental-meditating channeling-past-lives patchouli-and-turquoise-jewelry-wearing garbage.

[Phantom Lord]

One of my favorite episodes of South Park is the one with "Miss Information" running a natural healing store and Cheech and Chong work their as "Native Americans".

Cherokee Hair Tampons was my favorite.

[CPOSharky]

She's dead wrong. You soak the flowers in moonlight and rocks (I mean 'gems') in sunlight.

And in a full eclipse, woo-hoo, that essence is wild.

And I can prove it with the handy-dandy reference I will write some time.
