Hidden Talents of the Pious Few

It has come to my attention, recently, that I have some aquaintances that have certain "abilities" or "gifts," if you will. Rumor has it that they "heal" certain friends of theirs of any addicting maladies... or just because they want to inflict discomfort on proud or lie-telling members of the male sex. Boyfriends and husbands beware! The process goes a little like this: A female friend comes crying into work one day, wounded and heart-broken by yet another boy. This woman decides to get revenge. So she prays that these certain males or annoying friends will receive the blessing of discomfort-causing illnesses or minor complications. She has been know to cause heart-breaking boys genital "itching" of thier most prized possessions, diarrea to a gluttonous, over-indulging alcoholics and curses of various other sorts. Now, we all believe in the power of prayer... I've just never seen God work so quickly in such a malicious manner. Truly, this woman's prayers (or curses) seem to occur the day following her heavenly request. It seems that God himself has a funny bone, indeed. Maybe she is one of His revenge-serving angels, sent to earth to remind each mindless male or grungy glutton of his certain demise (or embarrassment) if he steps over the line. I just know I don't want to cross her. And I know that if I ever come down with something, genital itching, hives, or a random black eye, I'll know who to blame.
