Day Three Hundred and Thirty-Six - Psycho-NOTs

So, in my 2007 Best/Worst Of Roundup [please see here] I designated a videogame called Psychonauts as my runner-up for best videogame of the year. I stand by that. In the game there is much talk and manipulation of "psi" - but just what the heck is it? Apparently it's a "real" thing [as real as any kinda fruity out of the body/existential/psychic crap is]. I was illuminated to this through Wikihow, which also instructed me on how to make use of my own psi. I don't think I have any as I made a psi wheel and then got very, very frustrated when nothing happened. And I mean nothing. For a while I thought I had something cooking, but it turns out that it was just my breathing. I need to work on that.

Eventually, I enlisted Joseph's help. He's way more patient than I am and seems to have a knack for actually doing useful things with all manners of paper. Also, he is the one who actually played the Psychonaughts game, so obviously he would have one-up on little old me, right? Right? Oh, only not. He did get it to work a little bit, but not consistently [though still better than me]. I don't have photos [or video] because we both got frustrated and deconstructed the wheel so that it can no longer plague us, but I would invite you to visit the Wikihow page and make one yourself. I would really love to know what the secret is as I tried everything. Many, many different types of paper [and tin foil], different pins, different ways of putting the pins in the eraser, different locations in the house...and nothing. I guess I have no telekinetic ability...I should probably remove that from my resume then.
