The Dark Arts

Today I've witnessed another display of unbelievable finesse in the management of information and impression.

 

I've seen such exquisite techniques several times before; they're rare and when you see them you cannot help but wonder in astonishment.

 

They're dark art, some say.

 

Some say they're a mix of psychology, quick-wits, knowledge of hard facts, intellect, or even the ability to simply put on a show.

 

But they're truly beautiful, and I'm definitely tempted.

 

So It seems ... I've begun my discipleship in mastering these techniques.
