For Beauty Is God’s Handwriting
Horoscopes, astrology, numerology, palm reading, tarot cards (awesome though they are), tea leaves, sacrificial entrails, crystal ball gazing, scattering of bones, psychics, witchdoctors, etc, are all BS.
They may make for good plot devices, but as far as relevance to the real world goes?
Right up there with “climate change.”
But handwriting. Now we’re talking.
Having always had pretty atrocious looking penmanship, I’m a firm believer in the adage that ugly handwriting is inversely proportional to intelligence.
Exhibit A – This, to me, is the handwriting of a sure-fire future psycho. In fact, I’d lock the culprit up now, as whoever it is must be guilty of something.
Exhibit B – Above, on the other hand, is President Obama’s signature. And it is beautiful.
Too beautiful. S.Weasel has the measure of it.

This signature is so exquisite that I may require a private moment.
