Any paranormal anything would have to be crafty indeed to slip
by Regis. He's the most voracious of all known psychic
parasites. Look what he did to that lovely Kathy Lee. She was
one of the most gifted Cosmetimancers (Mary Kays) of our time.
He latched onto her like a metaphysical lamprey eel and left a
broken, rather haggard-looking shell drifting lifelessly in his
wake. He's vile. Give him a wide berth, boys.
