Wantedactionfigure.com has a couple of 1/6 scale Johnny Depp heads. It's the lady who did my House among a few others.

Um... I said "learn about" not "buy" a Tarot deck. Which means... I will read information about them.

Poison Princess is the first book in The Arcana Chronicles, which is about human embodiments of the Major Arcana fighting each other to the death in a post-apocalyptic world.

Being mostly unfamiliar with the cards themselves, I'm certain I missed out on some subtext during my first read-through of the novel.

While you can find out the basic info, I don't think someone can really understand Tarot unless they use them. Different decks have different meanings and subtext and the art can take a reading in a totally different direction.

Enabler! Thanks! That's a pretty awesome selection of likenesses, except for the Christian Bale one, which is making me think of the actor from Quantum Leap for some reason. As soon as I establish how much money I've got left for this week...

I've now got evil plots of Raoul and Tony sitting there being permanently drunk/high and being totally ignored by all the other dolls as they gibber about the giant flesh lady...

Start out looking up the meanings to the Rider-Waite deck...that is a universal starter by most Tarot people. The meanings are easy to understand. There is a difference between the Major and Minor Arcana. The author, most likely, used the Major arcana, so I would stick with that one.

Heheh! I'll keep that in mind!

Hmm... Is it bad that I kinda want a Johnny Depp minimee - just to turn into Hunter S Thompson/Raoul Duke? He'd certainly terrify the other dolliehs - he could be in charge of all of the floating heads that are accumulating... and would probably happily eat/drink all sorts of chemicals that are bad for PU... I'd even get the "Red Shark" and a giant bottle of Ether...

Edit: Great the idea has stuck... I've now got images of him being the only member of the dollieh crew who is fully aware that I exist - so of course all of the others believe that I'm an LSD induced hallucination...

Too cute to be true dollie of my daughter sitting on my desk watching me type...

Ok, thanks, I'll look that up.

It did say in the book that it was the 22 cards of the Major Arcana who were fighting each other.

After reorganizing my Kindle I got the bug to count all of my cookbooks. I gave up around 400. I didn't even get to my computer, cooking magazines and the banana crates full of my grandma's clippings. I have a serious addiction (even worse than dolliehs ).

Boursin is the world's best cheese. Side note - I'm sitting at my work desk and am hungry.
