A coworker from the sales department hands out free Harry Potter 3 tickets at work
Yijun: Awesome. I can't wait to go see the new Harry Potter movie. What are you going to do with your ticket?
Bob: I'm giving mine to my daughter. She saw the first two back in England.
Yijun: I've read all five of the books. You've English. You probably read them all, too, right?
Bob: Not me. But I did wait in line all day to buy the fifth book for my daughter.
Yijun: My husband did that for me since I had to work. I just love these books.

Most experts agree that palmistry started in India, but perhaps its most common association is with the nomadic people popularly known as Gypsies. During the Middle Ages, they were often employed as spies by various kingdoms in Europe. They would use palm reading sessions with important people as an opportunity to get information.

大多数专家同意相手术起源于印度,不过也许最容易是和人们熟悉的游牧民族吉普赛人联系在一起。在中世纪,吉普赛人常被欧洲的王国雇来充当间谍。他们利用替大人物看手相的机会来刺探情报。
