Coolnes factor of the interface is high. If you'll excuse me, I have a thirst to quench.
Very funny and original setup! Well done!
But, um, I submitted a couple of entries and they weren't in there. Did you get my email? They were to A Flawed Quiz on Belief (by me) and Good Girls Keep Their Temper on SkepChick.

Now, if only they'd allow these colas in schools...
Nice set up!
I don't think this cola would be good. I'm skeptical about it. Haha.
I think that's the best-presented carnival I've ever seen!
Thanks, although I still like the one I did for the 26th Skeptics' Circle.
On a whim I decided to take the Randi million dollar challenge. As a true skeptic I am skeptical of everything including professional skeptics. The test is bogus, Randi lies, he rejected my claim saying that I didn't want any photos taken, not true, I actually demanded that the whole process be video taped just incase I might need it as evidence to present to a jury if I had to sue to collect. He lied to his readers at his site saying I would not agree to a proper protocol, which translates "Randi wins at all costs", honesty is not in the equation...Bill Perron P.S.if you want the real truth anyone can call me at 626-579-3697 or write bill@fantasyenchantment.com
Outrageously creative. Bravo!
Hi, Bill!
I seem to recall that you claimed that horoscopes were accurate, correct? At least to a 60% chance. You wanted to print up the horoscope from your computer for random men, then have their wives read all eight pages of it to see if she could recognise their husbands.
I'd like to be sure that this is a accurate description of your claim before discussing it further.
Have you ever tried reversing the ability? As in: have you ever thought of creating a questionnaire that could then determine the person's date of birth? It could ask about various personality traits, their place (and time, but not date obviously) of birth, and whatever features that horoscopes theoretically determine. It could be filled out by the wife (or someone else close to the subject) to try avoiding some of our person bias (everyone has a little self-delusion in their lives, right? while still being written by someone close enough to know them.
From there, it should be a piece of cake to figure out what day they were born on! Or at least very, very close to it.
I came across your question and the answer is no, I believe what you are suggesting is something called rectification. 60% is correct and Randi did lie when he rejected me. He said I didn't want photos taken, I insisted that the whole test be video taped because I suspected his dishonesty and told him as much and said I wanted the tape in case I had to take him to court to collect the million. He tried to characterize me as some sort of buffoon at his site, as he does to so many others, but I'm not going to let him get away with it, a major international magicians magazine is going to publish my account of the experience. It will be the truth and Randi will have to deal with it. For a guy who has an "education" foundation it seems to me that his disingenuous ways are evidence of a hypocritical approach to a search for the truth.I believe Randi owes his audience and myself an apology for lying about me at his site. I also believe I should be entitled to the million by default...Bill Perron
Bill, you do indeed sound like a buffoon.
But I promise to read your expose.
You know, just to be sure.
Someone who calls themself DJ said I sound like a bufoon, now why would you do something like that? Is it because you know Randi is a liar and anyone who actually thinks Randi would ever conduct an honest test is a bufoon? I have tried several times to get Randi to explain why he lied about me to his readers but he will not respond,why don't you ask him DJ? Then please let me know. 6265793697 OR bill@fantasyenchantment.com I can prove he lied and will be glad to send you the proof. Bill Perron
Further proof that pseudo skeptics are afraid to have their agenda filled beliefs challenged is the fact that I have offered my proof of Randis' lies and not one so called skeptic has requested to view my proof. Fearful Randibots afraid of the truth are so damned predictable, they are great at attacking others but like little cockroaches they run in fear from the light.....Bill Perron
911 JUDGMENT of GOD
Does anyone doubt 911 as the JUDGMENT of GOD upon AMERICA, and the NATIONS of the WORLD? Read on now; writes Ivor Manuel, Branch of the Lord.
Yesterday 10/22/06 Associated Press published the following story: NEW YORK – Searchers found more bones believed to belong to Sept. 11 World Trade Center attack victims Sunday in manholes and utility areas, areas that apparently were overlooked years ago…
Utility and city officials have excavated more than five hundred areas, yielding more than 100 pieces of human remains, since construction workers discovered bones earlier in the week in a manhole excavated as part of work in a transit hub…
The medical examiner’s office said 18 pieces of remains were found Sunday. The bones found thus far range from tiny fragments to recognizable bones from the sculls, torso, feet and hands. Some are as large as whole arms and legs bones…
Now read the WORD of the LORD by Prophet ISAIAH chapter 34: 1, 2, 3, 4. For the LORD shall accomplish His purpose according to the WORD by His prophets; writes Ivor Manuel.
“Come near, ye nations, to hear; and hearken ye people; let the Earth hear, and all that is therein; the World and all things that come forth of it. For the indignation of the LORD is upon all nations, and His fury upon all their ARMIES; He hath utterly destroyed them; He has delivered them to the slaughter. THIR SLAIN also SHALL BE CAST OUT, and THEIR STINK SHALL COME UP OUT of their CARCASES, and the MOUNTAINS SHALL BE MELTED (mountains in Afghanistan) with their BLOOD. And all the Host of Heaven shall be dissolved, and the Heavens shall be rolled together as (Tsunami, Earthquakes and Hurricanes) a scroll; and all their entire host (idols of America and the World) shall fall down, as the leaf falleth off from the vine, and as a falling fig from the fig tree.”
Now, read the WORD of the LORD given to Ivor Manuel prophet, and published before the Presidential elections of 2004, in his Web Page named www.Aleuzenev.com
End of page 4 and part of page 5 of 22 pages:
Then from there; JESUS the son of man; The MESSIAH SON of GOD; The HIGHEST PRIEST and PROPHET of the prophets; ALEUZENEV; HIS NEW NAME (Revelation 3:12); Our HEAVENLY BROTHER whom is set down with OUR FATHER in HIS THRONE; spoke saying to HIS brother: “Write all that I AM saying in your ears; that MY sheep may read and understand MY FATHER’S WORD, and also hear MY VOICE in their ears; to understand “The COVENANT of PEACE and ETERNAL LIFE.” And HIS prophet opened the LORD’S BOOK of REVELATION given to HIS servant; Saint JOHN THE DIVINE 2:23 and read HIS Written WORDS: “And I will kill her children with death [JEZEBEL’S children, those who idolized their own FREDOM, Statue of Liberty, Goddess of Liberties; worshipers of Baal god of material images from the church of THYATIRA]; and all the churches shall know that I AM He whom searches the rains and the hearts: and I will give unto every one of you according to your Works.”
Thereon, the prophet recalled December of 1998; after President Clinton had been impeached by the House of Representatives, and before the Senate of the United States would vote on February 12, 1999, Year of Our LORD, to either remove or leave the President in office. The following testimony of JESUS was dictated to HIS brother Ivor Manuel (prodigal son); by HIM; The SPIRIT of PROPHESY. The testimony was published in a tourist magazine named ORIENTATION; and was read by people all over the World visiting Orlando; and few shall know, they were blessed with this knowledge during their visit to Florida. It was titled, “KING and COURT vs. the people;” and it is written: “Raising the consciousness of the planet is the job of the King (Establish Morality and Peace by the WORD of GOD), but the King is a liar (then, President Bill Clinton) and teaches immorality and adultery to the people. The King has broken The Law of the land and that of Heaven. He has lied to his people and murdered his brothers [lies about adultery and bombing of Baghdad during Ramadan] as they prayed. The House has judge the King and found him guilty (Impeachment by the House), but the King and his court (The President and Senators that voted against his Impeachment) believe he is above The Law. The King is arrogant, his court is in darkness and they blind the people with the veil of money and idolatry to the host of impurity. The speaker of the House has shown the way and has asked the King to follow in the way of constriction (resign as President), but the King and his court will not yield to the wisdom of repentance. Therefore the people (common people must raise a voice against the President and the Congress) must raise the consciousness of the King and his court. The people who say: “In GOD we TRUST,” must follow The Consciousness of Light (CHRIST’S CONSCIOUSNESS) and punish the King. If the people fail to fire (Impeached the President) the King, they will bring GREAT CONDEMNATION UPON the LAND of AMERICA.”
It was signed, prophet for the new millennium. Then he (Ivor Manuel prophet) recalled that February 12 of 1999 Year of Our LORD came; which is also his birthday as well. On that day, the Senate voted to leave the President in office. Then on April 20th 1999, the day of the prophet’s 25th wedding anniversary, while US. Jet-fighters where bombing Kosovo; The LORD began to pass through the land of America; Littleton, Chicago, Atlanta, etc; and smite the children of the Christian nation, according to “The WORKS” the leaders of America have Glorified; “THE TEACHINGS of WAR [Kosovo then, now Afghanistan and Iraq] and VIOLENCE”, just as The LORD had prophesized it would happened in HIS BOOK of REVELATION chapter 2: 23; and had told HIS prophet to warn the nation before February 12 of 1999, which he did accordingly. “I pray for you to understand in The LIGHT”, says Ivor Manuel.
Today, October 23, 2006, the WORD of the LORD remains with HIS JUDGMENT and CONDEMNATION upon the LAND of AMERICA; unless the people REPENT and IMPEACHED President George W. Bush; thus says The LORD, and writes His prophet Ivor Manuel.
“And He said unto me, THOU MUST PROPHESY again BEFORE MANY PEOPLES and NATIONS, and TONGUES, and KINGS.” Revelation 10:11
And I praise Him: ALELUYA! AMEN! ALEUZENEV! Vengan mis hermanos Judios (Los Aztecas and all Immigrants) para ALEUZENEV!

Referring the War in Iraq
Rev, Jim Wallis said: “This WAR, from the CHRISTIAN POINT of VIEW, IS MORALLY WRONG and WAS from the BEGINNING.” “This WAR is an OFFENCE AGAINST GOD.” Sojourners/Call to Renewal.
Rev. Raphael G. Warnock said: “CONGRESS is to MORALLY INEPT to INTERVINE and STOP WAR”. “Mr. Bush, my Christian brother. We do need a SURGE in TROOPS.” “We need a SURGE in NON-VIOLENT ARMY of the LORD.” “We need a SURGE in CONSCIENCE and a SURGE in ACTIVISM and a SURGE in TRUTH-TELLING”. Atlanta’s Ebenezer Baptist Church.
Referring George W. Bush
Prophet ZECHARIAH says:
“Woe to the IDOL SHEPHERD that LEAVES the FLOCK! The SWORD shall be upon his arm, and upon his right eye; his arm shall be clean dried up, and his right eye shall be utterly darkened.” Chapter 11: 17.
The anti-CHRIST idolizes Military Power and Wealth; he leads in confusion his own people as well as others with fear and lies into WAR. Cowardly he will not exorcise a sword into battle himself; his arm will be dried from Blood and his darkened conscience will not be affected by the spilling of Blood of Innocents.
Prophet HABAKKUK says:
“Woe to him that BUILDS a TOWN with blood, and ESTABLISHES a CITY by INIQUITY!” BEHOLD, IT IS NOT of THE LORD of HOST that the PEOPLE SHALL LABOUR in the VERY (WAR) FIRE, and the PEOPLE shall WEARY themselves for VERY (PRIDE-ARROGANCE) VANITY.” Chapter 2: 12, 13.
The following is the end of part one of:
“THE REVELATION for PEACE from JESUS CHRIST to the World.”
The Prophetic book was given to the prodigal son Ivor Manuel, before the Presidential Elections of 2004 by OUR LORD, it was published then in the web. www.ALEUZENEV.com.
Then, the BOOK of DANIEL [“GOD is my JUDGE” his Hebrew name] continued to be as a night vision of revelations in chapter 7 verse 10, as he opened the BOOKS as commanded by The LORD; for the JUDGEMENT of GOD to the Gentiles has already being SET upon this nation; and now is being brought forth unto TRUTH: “A fiery stream issued and came forth from before Him: thousand thousands ministered unto Him, and ten thousand times ten thousand stood before Him; the JUDGEMENT was set, and the BOOKS were OPENED.” Then he saw PSALM 2 again: “Be wise now therefore, O you Kings: be instructed, you Judges of the Earth. . . Serve the LORD with fear and rejoice with trembling.” And HIS voice thundered “Behold! Behold! I AM the PRINCE of PEACE, the only ONE thus says the LORD, and as I said before I say now; this is in deed the Time to bring JUDGEMENTMENT to the Gentiles and reveal TRUTH to the nations, here is a little and there comes a little more.”
And behold; the night vision was now like in a great television screen showing the name: The King of MYSTERY BABYLON the GREAT; then there appeared the President of the United States of America; dressed with a tricolor hooded cloak garment of stars. And he had in his head a crown of gold that was melting; and the precious metal was going into his eyes making him blind; and when he walked toward a ceremonial bowl filled with water to clean his eyes; he then tripped his foot against a Stone, a tried Stone, a precious corner Stone set by the ceremonial bowl that was filled with water. And as he stumbled and fell, his right foot got caught into the ceremonial vessel and the water turned to blood. The President was trying desperately to get his foot out of the bowl while his back was against the floor; but his foot was caught in the vessel with his greed and egotistical pride; and he was shaking his foot with anger and the satisfaction of force while on his back; but the ritual kettle was boiling over with the sacrificial blood of multitudes of humans and melting his sword. Poor and innocent soldiers from many nations, poor and innocent civilians from Afghanistan and Iraq; the blood of poor and innocent children, women and elders from the all over the World was overflowing along his side. And his cabinet along with the republican and democratic courts, and the clergy were there by his side; standing on their knees inebriated with the wrath of his wine; as the American ceremonial vessel became a drowning river of blood. And there came on the screen the words written: “The LAMENTATION of ABOMINABLE HIPOCRASY.”
I Pray for AMERICA and PEACE for the WORLD.
“Chosen and Faithful, you have been called to stand for the Gospel of Peace at the right hand of the LORD.” Behold! ALELUYA!...AMEN!...ALEUZENEV! Ivor Manuel prophet
