The Phnom Penh Post featured an article about a tamarind tree sprout. This is no ordinary sprout. It has a face. Srey Phen, the owner of the tree, said, “When I saw it, I felt it smile and dance at me, waving from side to side, so I called my neighbor to come see it.” Naturally, Srey Phen consulted a fortune teller who told her the sprout is good luck and directed her to buy candies as an offering to the sprout. She declared her that after praying to the sprout, her sick son suddenly recovered.
People from all around come to see the sprout and pray for their sick relatives. Srey Phen charges them for it. She made $30 on her first day
I think the moral of the story is that I need to go look for some leaf, frog, stone, anything that slightly resembles a face.

Cletus isn't the smartest around but that sounds like a modern day shakedown! I have an oil spill in my driveway that I look into and see visions. I should start being a fortune teller and charge my neighbors! They think I am strange enough already though.
