No, not the book. I stumbled across this internet site, and my mind is still reeling: [http://www.mephisto-subliminal.com/](http://www.mephisto-subliminal.com/) Do people actually _believe_ this stuff? I’d order some tapes myself, but I suspect that **Pepper Mill** has been surreptitiously playing the “Don’t spend your money on really stupid things” subliminal tape again. (Mods: I don’t think this violates any sacred SDMB rules. There’s no nudity.) ---

The combination to her _what?_ Christ! I didn’t know they kept them things locked up! Actually, this explains the recurring nightmare I keep having where I’m back in High School and can’t get by books or into my locker _because I can’t remember the combination!!_ And that’s Science! 😃 * * * “Oh I wish I was a Catfish, swimmin’ in the deep blue sea.

You’re lying. I bet you’d love to seduce the hundreds of women that this system offers you. Hundreds. Better than the Lynx effect. Hundreds. Naked bodies lying everywhere. All of them female. Think about it. ---

I [looked into it a little](http://www.netsol.com/cgi-bin/whois/whois?STRING=mephisto-subliminal.com&SearchType=do&STRING2.x=19&STRING2.y=1), and the domain name is registered by a Brian Crawford of Westmont, Illinois. Further research indicates that indeed, Brian Crawford _has_ [mastered the art of subliminal messaging](http://www.game-revolution.com/chatter/mailbag/archive/9-5-00.htm): > [@](#): > > From: “Brian Crawford” (\*\*\*\*\*\*@yahoo.com) > Subject: Subliminal Message for Duke > > Duke Duke Duke Duke Duke Duke Duke Duke Duke Duke > Duke Duke Duke Duke Duke Ben Silverman is a girl Duke > Duke Duke Duke Duke Duke Duke Ben Silverman is a girl > Duke Duke Duke Duke Duke.

Um, are all other message boards like that one? No wonder I never posted to one before I found SDMB… ---

Why waste time with subliminal music. I’m in a _hurry_! The same site sells [pheromone cologne](http://www.mephisto-subliminal.com/colognes.html). The way I read it is, in one breath she catches my scent. Her next breaths are partially obstructed, because she’s she’s jammed a significant portion of my anatomy down her throat. Plus it’s more environmentally friendly!
