570.0. "CLAIRVOYANT CAPER IN DUBLIN" by WILLEE::OROURKE () Tue May 16 1989 12:43

    From yesterday's Providence Journal:
                     
    I'd say these mediums weren't worth their salt.....If the "U.S.
    contingent" had already left, we'd probably know the culprits!
    
    Police are looking into it
    --------------------------
    
    "Makes you wonder why they didn't see it coming, but five fortune
    tellers from northern England say they had to abandon a tour of
    Ireland because their crystal balls were stolen.
    
    Margaret Pickering said members of the group did sense something
    might go wrong soon after they arrived in Ireland.
    
    We were aware something was about to happen, but we did not know
    what, said Mrs Pickering, a medium from Hull.  We did not think
    our luggage might be taken.
    
    The crystal balls, tarot cards and other essential tools of the
    clairvoyants' trade were taken from their car while it was parked
    outside a guest house in Dublin.
    
    Irish police said they were investigating the theft.
    
    "Just what the thieves will do with their haul remains a mystery,"
    a spokesman said.
    
    "You might say we are looking into it...if only we had a crystal
    ball to help us."

570.1Better than Burns's jokesDUB02::OSULLIVAN_DWed May 17 1989 16:306
    Reminds me of the old question:
    
    
    Why do gypsies make noisy lovers?
    
    Because they have crystal balls!

    Really Dermot! Insulting "Mr. Arts & Entertainment Director" Burns
    about his (often) poor, "jokes". 
                                                                      
    
    Its not his fault, Dermot: you see, Paddy Culbert writes that material
    for him. 
    
    
    THAT'S the reason his jokes aren't quite up to snuff.        :^>
