This thread was hidden away in the Misc. section - under the assumption that no one reads the threads here - I didn't even know there was a Misc. section This thread was written for myself only, to hone my writing skills - then to have those pg posters posting nasty posts - and another posting a whole thread "warning" people not to read this thread. well golly gee, that was the whole idea - and then when you post saying "don't read this thread" why do you think happens? People read the thread I started posting a whole lot of stuff - to move those nasty posters away. So the moral of the story is - if you don't like this thread - don't read it.

This story is about a guy I went to school with in Abbotsford, pretty well from elementary through to high school - I did have a crush on him and loved him from afar lol But I was really proud of him when I heard what happened - not sure of the details - but he was in the regular army and stationed with the UN Peacekeepers in Cyprus - His unit got in a fire fight with rebels, not sure if they were Turks or not. Anyway in the middle of all the shooting, Pat Rochon got shot in the face. He spit out the bullet and kept shooting - now that's a man!!! sigh I'll search the net to see if I can find more details, I think it happened in the 80's

Mull of Kintyre http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6Y5mcLxlSgU&feature=related »Military Tattoo Cologne 2004« After an intensive training with experts from the british rhine army the German bagpipe band was founded in 1977. The song was written by McCartney and bandmate Denny Laine in tribute to the picturesque Kintyre peninsula in Argyll & Bute, Scotland, where McCartney had owned a home and recording studio since the late 1960s. Mull of Kintyre Lyrics: Oh mist rolling in from the sea, My desire is always to be here Oh mull of kintyre Far have I traveled and much have I seen Dark distant mountains with valleys of green. Past painted deserts the sunsets on fire As he carries me home to the mull of kintyre. Mull of kintyre Oh mist rolling in from the sea, My desire is always to be here Oh mull of kintyre Sweep through the heather like deer in the glen Carry me back to the days I knew then. Nights when we sang like a heavenly choir Of the life and the time of the mull of kintyre. Mull of kintyre Oh mist rolling in from the sea, My desire is always to be here Oh mull of kintyre Smiles in the sunshine And tears in the rain Still take me back to where my memories remain Flickering embers growing higher and higher As they carry me back to the mull of kintyre Mull of kintyre Oh mist rolling in from the sea, My desire is always to be here Oh mull of kintyre Mull of kintyre Oh mist rolling in from the sea, My desire is always to be here Oh mull of kintyre

Witchcraft Magic Spell Book Store NOW OPEN! Spelwerx's Witchcraft Magic Spell Book Store is now open to help you find the spell books you're looking for quickly and easily! The Spell: You will need: The magic words A place for quiet concentration Privacy (initially) If you believe you are under psychic attack, repeat the following words and continue to recite them until the attack subsides. Repeat as follows: Keeper of the keys, eternal spirit of the moon, I summon thee by the authority of the spirits of darkness and light. Come now and hold back this force, which threatens. Thrust out your mighty hand that none may pass but those proved friend not foe. Grant passage not to those who would do harm, nor allow they suffer upon my mind their evil wills. Keeper of the keys, eternal spirit of the moon?stand fast. Psychic attacks are normally brief due to their very nature. Only the most powerful of attackers would be able to sustain an enduring attack. Note: If you find you are under frequent psychic attack, it would behoove you to work several long-lasting protection spells for the warding-off of evil intrusions and for protection of one's home. The spell for Protection of One's Mind is an excellent deterrent spell and offers continuous general psychic protection.

Flame of protection or Fire-Fly Demons To begin, stand still, arms at your side. Close your eyes and imagine you are standing in shallow water and that there is light below the surface of the water. You are calm, safe and secure. Now, continuing to keep your eyes closed, imagine that you are raising and extending your right arm and with the index finger of your right hand, you are pointing to a spot approximately three to six feet away from your feet. Next, imagine that you are turning, pointing as you turn, drawing a circle around you on the water. Do not physically move — you are moving only in your mind. As you draw the circle, you see a wall of fire rising from the water, encircling you as you turn. It is shielding you. It is cool where you stand — the water is keeping you cool. In your mind, you continue to turn until you have completed the circle and your shield of fire surrounds and protects you. When you desire the shield of fire to leave, simply imagine that the light in the water goes dark — the fire will disappear. If you wish to protect a larger area, imagine that you are pointing and drawing a larger circle. Keep in mind that the larger the circle, the more psychic energy required. In addition, bear in mind that the longer you keep the shield up, the more psychic energy will be consumed. Therefore, this spell can be very draining and must only be used when necessary.

Curses and Hex A hex is also what a curse is called in today’s world. Taking its power from just the desire to cause harm to another person or maybe exact revenge, a curse can actually be laid by anyone. But if a priestess or a skilled magician lays a curse, it is more powerful and dangerous. Curses are also strong if they are deathbed curses meaning that while at death’s door, a person will lay a curse on somebody. This curse is very potent because most of the energies of the dying person are put into the curse. In different traditions of magic or witchcraft though, the Golden Rule or even karma applies. A witch abides by the Wiccan Rede which states that no harm should be done to anyone and anything that is performed, be it spell, prayer, ritual or curse will return to the spell caster times three. Use the Mirror of Hathor to reflect back bad vibes, negative vibes back to the sender 3 folder it is their own hate coming back to them and they have no one blame but themselves Bast, goddess of music inspire and encourage - and ring those bells

Moon Magick Spells The moon has always been used by man as a way to get in tune with the natural rhythms of earth. The moon has an effect on everything depending on its phases like making the tides rise and recede. In the magical realm, the powers of the moon are used for magic rituals, growing crops, health and basically, for living. This is called moon magic. This kind of magic is an important part in the witchcraft religion of Wicca.

In working their rituals, every phase of the moon in moon magick can bring about a physical and psychological transformation for witches. Spells are cast according to cycles and the moon is a source of inspiration for spell casters. The moon gives out a certain energy to witches depending on how full it is. The highest energy is during these times and it is mostly why most ritual ceremonies occur during the full moon. The moon never ceases to wax and wane and it travels in different astrological signs. When it is within the various signs, the sign does have a power on the magical side of the moon. The moon phases that affects moon magick are waxing also known as Maiden, full also known as the Mother and waning also known as the Crone. These are all seen as faces of the Goddess. It also involves the new moon and dark moon. Moon Magick With regard to moon spells, the new moon is a good time for spells relating to starting something, like new projects or a business. It increases abundance and healing. It is also good to use for job hunting. Time is critical in this form of magic. Moon magick spells for the new moon can be done from the day of the new moon to three and a half days after. The dark moon goes from ten to fourteen days after the full moon and it is time for exploring dark emotions like anger. The dark moon is also the bearer of justice. Energies can be unpredictable during these phases so spell casting mostly makes use of the other phases of the moon.

Egyptian Magick - Set protect - Anubis protect - nephyties protect etc. There are Rules and the Egyptian magic comply with the laws of magic. However, they have rules that only apply to the Egyptian magic alone. For them, there is no delineation between white magick and black magic. They consider magic as a single phenomenon. The difference of good from evil magic lies in the hands of the spell caster. If the spell is cast with a sinister intention then it becomes evil. But if the spell is for the greater good then it is a good magic. This status on how one casts a spell is still realized even today. Therefore if one uses magic for evil ways then the spell caster suffers severely in life. In the Egyptian magic, there is no distinction between priests, magicians, and scientists. All those who practice this type of magic are in one way or the other have the same functions. And they call upon the same Egyptian gods, Horus and Isis. Some forms of magic do not need too much preparation. That is the contrary to the Egyptian magic spells where they require a lot of preparation and elements. More important to them are the material components. Magic, especially love spells, will not work unless the elements are complete regardless if these materials are easy or hard to find. However as the year’s progressed, the elements that were used seem easier and less complicated to locate. Moreover, the Egyptian spells revolve around magic spells and amulets. It is deemed that writing and reading incantations strengthens the spell and thus making it more effective. For the Egyptian love spell, amulets are the sources of the spellwork. The spells focus more on rekindling lost and forgotten love and encouraging intimacy among partners. It does not influence free will and it does not change ones personality to fit another. The spell touches some feelings that will lead to an appreciation and liking for another person. It also brings forth qualities that makes one attractive to the other; qualities that allows love to flourish between each other. It eliminates road blocks and problems that cause hindrance to true love and a happy relationship.

did Steve Mountain's runes and cartouche cards - he said its a first, a long distant card reading - I just sent him this note: When I was 20 I was in the Army reserve - signal corp. in Vancouver, B.C. at the army mess the civilian bartender, Danny taught me to play pool - he had a custom made pool cue, which I thought was pretty cool. So my dad comes up from L.A. to visit when I was living in Windsor, Ont. across the river from Detroit. So I challenge my dad to a pool game - figuring that I would beat him - I never had a turn - he sank ever ball and then said "by the way, did I ever mention that my dad owned a pool hall in Philadelphia?" noooo you never mentioned that, sheeeeesh My grandfather was Barton Miller, from Springfield Ohio - Bart from Springfield

Cyn, I have reason to believe -- no, I should say, I absolutely know without a doubt, 100%, that the Steve Mountain you are corresponding with is NOT the same Steve Mountain who manages the Hooters. I think you should tread very carefully when corresponding with this person -- he is NOT the Steve Mountain you think he is. (You might want to check back in one of your early threads about your correspondence with Steve Mountain and your lyrics for the Hooters. I mentioned there that I know the Hooters and I know them in various capacities. I may not have mentioned at the time, but I know and am a long time dear friend (the same friend who helped me to adopt Harry) with the woman who works directly with Steve Mountain -- the REAL Steve Mountain. Trust me, Cyn, you have not been in contact with Steve Mountain and he has not been in contact with you, so this can only mean two things -- someone is not telling the truth -- the Steven Mountain with whom you're in contact or you. I'm not judging you, but I think it would be wise all around to cease all contact with "Steve Mountain" -- it's bound to get someone in trouble. And you might be curious to know how I know all this -- well, as I've mentioned, I am good friends with the woman who works with Steve and we chat . . .and I asked about it (mostly because I was very confused about the fact that the Hooters were in search of lyrics written by someone they do not even know and even more so, that their manager??? would be the person submitting lyrics to them?? If that was the case, then I'd send them some of my poems . . . like my latest one . . . Tit for tat, that's a really cool cat! . . . I know, it needs some work, but it's only in the beginning stages! Good luck with it all Cyn.
Pat Parker 25 February 2012 at 3:54pm Posts: 2683 (0 today) Status: offline
Cyn, I have just now read your post to me, telling me that you will not read my thread to you -- shame, really, because all that you mention in your post is addressed in mine, and all that you have written sorta confirms and validates all I was trying to say to you. I know this is useless and a waste of my time, but I wrote my thread to you really so that I can say and point out to you (especially) that no one is bullying you, no one is threatening you. I cannot and will not comment on all that you have written here -- interesting that you couldn't take 2 seconds to read what I wrote, but you could spend "x" amount of time to write all of your comments about people. For all you know, Cyn, not having read what I wrote, I might have really blasted you and said mean, cruel, insulting things to you (now, of course you know I didn't because that is not my style and you've already read the thread and know it). I will comment only on your last sensitive, Cyn, since it does address me directly. And I'll do what you do best, I'll cut, copy and paste it so I don't miss a single word: "[L]ook into your soul Pat, I always thought you were fair - a little sensitive but fair." So, Cyn, exactly what am I looking into my soul for?? I'm not sure I lost anything there and can't figure out what answers I'll get when I'm there. This much I know, Cyn, I have a beautiful, wonderful, happy, warm, peaceful soul -- despite any/all trials and tribulations I have ever been through -- my soul is full of all of the events in my life -- every single one of them, good, bad and ugly. You know what, I wouldn't trade or sell my soul for all the money in the world. I am a beautiful person -- inside and out! (And most of all, I'm quite humble! . So, no soul searching for me Cyn -- I'm quite happy with the way it is now. The end of your quote: "... I always thought you were fair - a little sensitive but fair." -- well, on both of those points you are 100% correct! Yes, I am absolutely fair in every sense of the word. I spend much of my time advocating for those who have been treated unfairly and will most likely go to my grave saying, "But that's not fair!" I loathe unfairness; I loathe injustice and I have zero tolerance for anyone who does not accept responsibility and accountability for their actions, especially if they've treated someone unfairly. So, thanks for the compliment, Cyn -- I am a fair person in every regard. As for "a little sensitive but fair" -- well, you got me again. Yes, Cyn, I am not just a little sensitive -- I am very, very sensitive and sometimes to a fault, but I will tell you this without any shame -- it is because of my sincere utter sensitivity that I can be a loving, giving, sensitive human being and I can care for others -- regardless of age, race, creed, sex, or species for that matter. I am not afraid to be laugh, cry or share any emotions with another person. I am proud of being sensitive -- I wish everyone could be as sensitive as me! Really, I know it sounds pompous, but I have spent much of my life having to defend my being "overly sensitive" while those who are overly rude are okay to carry on! Really?! I don't think so. So, Cyn, you can think I'm overly sensitive and to that I simply say, it will not change a thing about me. Trust me, it's my sensitivity to ALL that has me even corresponding with you, so perhaps there is no such thing as "too sensitive" Geez, I love when I get to defend myself and what a good person I am. All the sensitivity or unfairness in the world cannot equal the strength I have within me. I'm proud to be the person I am. Thanks for letting me get up on the soap box to shout about it -- I needed it today! Good day all!
