It's so utterly ridiculous and perfect, but so, so wierd.

OH MY GOD. Psych and SK, together? That would be so awesome! Seriously, you should do that, even if just as a parody or something. Forget the calculations, he's perfect! :D

I'm glad I'm not the only one highly amused by the idea. :D I'll definately try to work something out. It should be interesting as Sammy is quite skeptic about psychics. Good gracious ... Shawn and Madam Nashira (is that right? we haven't seen her in awhile) would be quite the pair together. *plotting*
