I thought of a good but not killing joke... Who sells OTO charters on the phone? Thelemarketers.
IAO! I came across a Thelemic song by The Goons called IAO. I am sure The Great Beast would have liked it.
A picture might have helped.
When I was a kid I thought UFOs were really exciting. Nowadays, every human on the planet carries a 4K camera, but still there are no good photos of...
