MY MOTHER ONCE TOLD ME OF THIS METHOD OF PREDICTING
THE NUMBER OF CHILDREN, BOYS AND GIRLS, WE WERE TO
HAVE ONCE MARRIED. WE'D HOLD A NEEDLE DANGLING
FROM THREAD ABOVE OUR LEFT WRIST. IF THE NEEDLE
MOVED BACK AND FORTH HORIZONTALLY, IT WAS A BOY;
IF IT MOVED IN A CIRCULAR PATH, WE'D HAVE A GIRL. THE
NEEDLE REALLY WOULD MOVE IN THESE DIRECTIONS, BUT
WE'VE YET TO DISCOVER IF THIS METHOD IS VERY VALID
BUT IT'S FUN.
