Tony, did you think nobody would notice your selective quoting?
Why not quote the parts you cut like the following:
"Reciting various patterns for a reporter, however, the Speed Seduction
guru and several of his students sounded ridiculous. Not only were the
patterns themselves goofy, but the men adopted a strange, cadenced
tonality that made them sound like automobile salesmen trying to get you
to add mag wheels and pinstriping.
And that's why it seemed so odd that, time and again, when Jeffries and
his students actually tried out their strange routines in public places,
they were remarkably good at getting women to listen."
and....
"After hanging out with Jeffries and his students for any length of time,
you get the feeling Steele will have a difficult time proving to a jury
that Jeffries is a fraud."
and....
"Sure, to an outsider their opening lines often seemed laughable, and
their techniques of reading palms, analyzing handwriting, and asking
women about states of energy and other New Age ideas seemed like a joke.
But they repeatedly got positive responses from women who seemed
genuinely interested. "
and....
"Jeffries had turned guys who freely admitted that they were losers and
hardly knew what to say to a woman into pickup machines. Guys who didn't
have the guts to speak to an attractive woman now approached them easily,
engaged them in conversation, and asked them to think about the nature of
attraction, how they form connections with men, and their deepest
emotions. Jeffries' students were barreling through coffee shops and
bookstores meeting more women in an hour than they previously did in a
typical year."
You point out ross giving a chick his card, but you don't post the rest
of the interaction, likely because it went so well she had a "blast."
"So Jeffries goes for broke and asks for her number, but she turns him
down flat. "I'm sorry, I don't give out my number. But I'll take your
card if you have one," she says. "
"He agrees, pulling out a card, but then tells her he wants to give her a
brief demonstration of his abilities. Just for fun, he says, he wants her
to hold her hand in front of her face, close her eyes, and imagine she's
holding a rose. Then he asks her to bring it closer and smell it. Can
she? She smiles, going along good-naturedly. Then he tells her to brush
the rose against her cheek and feel the petals against her skin. What
color is the rose? he asks her. "Blue," she says. Then, telling her to
breathe slowly, he asks her to imagine that the rose grows larger when
she inhales, and shrinks when she exhales."
"Jeffries adopts his slow, narcotic voice -- the one that he says puts
women into a trance."
"What I want you to do is go inside and find the place where you keep
your
dreams, your hopes, your passions. Notice what it's like as the rose
follows my
voice into that special place," he says as he runs a finger up her leg.
"Whenever
you want to feel this state again, say when you're on the plane to Hawaii
and you
see my card and think of me, you can hear my voice again resonating from
that
place." He tells her his card will jump out of her wallet and seem to
glow a color. What color will it glow? he asks in a leading way."
"Blue!" she says. He tells her to open her eyes, and they shake hands.
"That was a blast," she says, and leaves for her audition.
"She was running out the door, but I got her to sit down and be
hypnotized," says a satisfied Jeffries. He can't predict whether she'll
call, but if she does, he'll suggest they meet at a similar place so he
can run more routines on her. "
Hrmmmm... no wonder you left those parts out.
