A perfectly formed scalp, such as mine, reveals no bumps. Does one conclude that I have no character?

Investigations of the local area and the Yellow Pages yielded nil phrenologists. Each and everyone lost their jobs because of this newfangled invention.

My dear Lady,

Far me it from me to comment on a Lady's character!

As for Phrenology - it's just another Art lost to the ravages of Industrial Society, like tying a tie or shoeing a horse.
