She then informed me it was stolen because nobody else in our house even had the keys to it and it really was not in the driveway.  So, I jumped into my other car and went to the local Police Department to make a stolen vehicle report.

They took the report, and I came home immediately and went online and entered my claim for reimbursement of the value of the car.  

So it has been about 4...

I am an amateur magician and was trained how to preform hypnosis many years ago but did very little of it because I always felt that a Hypnotist's show mostly humiliates the volunteers.

However, over the last several years I began to study hypnosis more and learned how to use it in a more therapeutic way in order to help other make changes that would improve their lives.  I have helped friends stop smoking, weight-loss, insomnia, and other changes.

Next week I am going to begin to VLOG my posts and I intend to produce a course on how to perform self-hypnosis so that any change you want to make in your life you can with...
