nonwiccanwitch a user asks At what point does "support" become "fostering delusions?>

The focus of the discussion quickly turns to whether or not one can control the weather.

Call me delusional, if you want to. I've seen folks control the weather

And as it turns out someone in a (now deleted, sadly) post thinks they can control the weather.

Is it okay to tell your children you can control the weather?

Maybe its just me, but this whole thing makes me want to go watch X-Men.

	That is, though, where I got my appreciation for truly obnoxiously colored and/or horridly girly umbrellas, though. It ensured they never walked off the lot without me. (Ooh I like those but yes, spendy. Very spendy. But NICE.) (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	I used to have one. I took it with me to Chicago in March. I don't have it any more. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

Aw.

The first umbrella I brought to my dealership was a very typical golf umbrella -- one of the white and black kind. It vanished. Then I brought a black one. It vanished as well.

Then I brought a clear vinyl one with pink and yellow stripes.

THAT didn't vanish. Nor did the rainbow golf umbrella I got after that one broke. For some reason my overwhelmingly middle-aged, male, absolutely stereotypical car salesman coworkers didn't want to touch brightly-colored umbrellas. Couldn't tell you why.
