What a strangely-worded statement. Computers and stray electrons have been
around for awhile now, increased popularity has nothing to do with single
electrons giving computers "conniption(s)".

Interrupt the electronics? Don't some also claim that mechanical watches
stop or malfunction when they wear them as well?

Why do you plug your blog when you don't respond to blogged comments others
post either? It is merely an advertising extension for selling spells?
Actually its not and I havent responded to your specific questions for
a reason.
You've nothing to fear from my questions, have you?
>Actually its not

No? Then why are a few of your blog posts posted to a few different usenet
groups word for word?
>
>and I havent responded to your specific questions for a reason.

You also haven't responded on your blog to others, (not myself - I haven't
replied to your blog). Is that also for an unspecified reason?
I cannot wear them..so..I figure it is something in the energy I have.
I keep one in my purse. Away from my skin.
I don't know about the rest of the stuff said here. I am betting that
is due to the ample glass of Sangria I had at Applebee's with dinner.
Blame any typo's on it as well.
Although I also saw Journey to the Center of the Earth today and
learned South is North there. Cute movie. Probably make you dizzy if
you see it 3D at the Imax.
You have something very special about you...do you have any way of
channeling this energy? You can use it for so many good things!

Its not a fear thing....its more of an annoyance.
The truth is scary for some.

I'm more annoyed by a salesman who tries to sell ice to Eskimos.
=^..^=
Xandra
Ha ha ha ha ha..."Red Rover, Red Rover send Marisa right over."
Chutzpah counts for everything.
I think I have found my twin.
If you ask most here on usenet..I channel out my ass. Honestly, be
careful of befriending me here. It will not help your reputation. ;)
However, I thank-you. I am just me. Born into and of...
I channel it into my land and those who are open to accepting me the
way I am.
My land is Sacred, Enchanted and Magickal as I am. We are what we are.
Seriously, I have not taken the time to scrutinize your website. Maybe
others are seeing what I do not.
I do have a problem with selling esoterically charged items like
healing water the Ancients give out for free. Not that you do, (maybe
you do) but an example of something I fought before.
I have a problem with charging for services and not respecting others
privacy but I do not think that applies to you.
I do think you have to be careful in selling things. Would hate to see
you get caught up in retribution. I am an advocate of pagans and
people who are in need. Not that you are but I do understand
aggressive marketing as online is a difficult place to sell. I also
firmly understand the need to survive in these hard times and doing
what you are best at.
Make sense? Fine line of what is right and wrong. I cannot say you are
not Wiccan just because you do something I would not.
Bottom line..I think you are getting picked on and set up for a trap
others have already decided their opinion of. That is usually enough
to get me on another's side with my sword. Not that you need it.
I really just need to find a disclaimer that encompasses this is my
opinion, it may not apply to you. At the very least a shortcut key.
If you are annoyed by questions concerning the marketing of spells, this
does not bode well for buyer customer support.
There's a certain ego-buzz in selling ice to Eskimos but, that arrogance can
carry over into other self-delusions.
Truth can be relative. Dodging questions about business practices isn't
relative; it tends to cast doubt on what is being sold.
Speaking of trying to sell ice to an Eskimo ... heh. It doesn't matter
that Marisa is unaware of the nature of some posters to this NG, they're all
potential customers to her and nothing more. It may be more indicative of
her own nature that she is unaware of certain aspects of some people here.
Casts what she advertises in a dubious light.
That is just your opinion or a few others here. I doubt that makes up
her entire clientele. Plus the whole attitude here is to bring her
down. I would not answer you as well. She has no obligation. If she
said she would answer perhaps she also has the right to refuse service
like any other establishment?
>That is just your opinion or a few others here.
>
Just as the questions are "annoying" is Marisa's opinion, eh?
>
>I doubt that makes up her entire clientele.

Could be that she's not used to doubt and answering questions about her
'services'. In lieu of her answering, a few speculations were tossed out.
She claims it is not due to fear but, much like her spells, there is no 100%
guarantee of this.
>
>Plus the whole attitude here is to bring her down.

Now you are speculating, which is fine. How can asking questions related to
what she claims bring her down unless answering wouldn't help her sales?
>
>I would not answer you as well. She has no obligation.

No one has any obligation to respond to questions or statements. Just as
any potential clients she is trolling for on arw, atw, am, ap or aw is under
any obligation to take her ads at face value. Perhaps she has no obligation
whatsover to her customers once they've parted with their money and their
common sense.
>
>If she said she would answer perhaps she also has the right to refuse

She can refuse service all she wants; just as potential customers can refuse
purchase all they want. It doesn't seem that unreasonable to ask a few
questions before someone forks over several hundred dollars for spells.
I don't sell 'em ice, I just sell 'em refrigerators :-)
At least we know they would have a high energy efficiency rating...
cough... especially when unplugged. ;)

Not to fret.
As annoyances go; you're a rather minor one.
To give credit where credit is due, no one else ever explaned to me that I
could become a Witch just by buying cheap watches...
Would it help if we put our shoes on?
No more so then suddenly waltzing into arw and dropping your one
liners.
Apparently all it takes nowadays is to simply declare that you are one,
(either a witch or, a buyer of cheap watches - your choice).
"No shirt, no shoes, no dice." - Fasttimes At Ridgemont High
It is the truth many Witches have problems with watches/computers/
electrical devices. It is not a far fetched thing to see that as a
sign of power. At least consider that if it occurs repeatedly the
problem is not the product but yourself.
Because you're a self-aggrandized douche?
You claim that "free electrons" play havoc with computers? I've got news
for you:
Several hundred thousand electrons died like dogs in the posting of this
article.
You mean like the electrical fields around a human body? Radioactivity is
also a sign of power but, there's no cause/effect connection between
witchiness and electrical interference other than speculation. I'm cool
with that.
>
>At least consider that if it occurs repeatedly the problem is not the

True, (unless one keeps purchasing cheap watches repeatedly ;> ),
attributing the cause of such interference remains speculative.
She's got a $2,000 spell listed so, they must work, right? You should list
one for five grand, Seamus, (using that rationale).

Also, a few thousand stray cosmic rays have been shooting right through you,
me, Marisa and ours computers during that interval. Happens all the time,
no one seems too much the worse for wear because of it. Attributions at
random ... this is witchcraft? Hrmm ...
Harsh word.

It only takes one swimmer sperm out of millions to change your life
completely.
Are you even a magickal? Man you fight magick like no one I know.
What is witchcraft to 'you' Sar?
I mean, arw is not made up of the only Witches and those who practice
the arts. There are plenty of others. The fact she charges for spells
has nothing to do with what her powers are or are not.
>Are you even a magickal?
>
Tacit insult, huh? Because certain things are questioned? I question many
things, give it whirl.
>
>Man you fight magick like no one I know.

No, I question certain things rather than accept them at face value. If you
object, that's fine. By questioning, learning can commence.
>What is witchcraft to 'you' Sar?

I can see that many people attribute different effects to witchcraft which
may or may not be attributible to witchcraft.
>

That's true and yet, what does it have to do with attributing, say, a
cat-fart to causing a string of traffic lights to turn green?
>

Again, that's true and it is conversely true that charging large amounts of
cash for spells does not assure that she has any powers; merely that she
charges for spells.

Not an insult. A direct question. Your insistence of logic defies a
practice there is very little logic in.
> >Man you fight magick like no one I know.

No, you insist on logic, you argue magic with logic. At least those
whom you do not seem to care for and yet let others who you have civil
feelings about slip by no matter what illogical vision or magical
event transpires.
I know we have discussed electronics and watches before. I know we
have decided magic's have this problem, so, what gives except you are
changing your beliefs because you do not like Marisa.
You are asking her to explain and be accountable for that which you
would not in others.
>Not an insult. A direct question.

The question is as inherently loaded and disregarded as rhetorical.
>
>Your insistence of logic defies a practice there is very little logic in.

The practice of witchcraft/magic does not mean that there is no room for
questioning both the rational and the irrational.

Everything is subject to questioning using reason, intuition and other
methods. Articulation of arguements/discussion uses logic in the form of
rational language structure, otherwise it would come out as dihgh mongo

This is merely your perception of what has occurred, not actually what has
occurred. You have no idea whether of not I have questioned things which
make no sense in discussions with others I am civil with. For example, you
and I have discussed such things several times and sometimes that's in a
civil manner while other times, it is not. Therefore, your blanket
statement does not apply.
>
>I know we have discussed electronics and watches before. I know we

We have discussed that particular subject before, yes. However, no general
conclusion was made concerning that being an indicator for anyone who
experiences that phenomenon. The effect could have alternate causes and my
own conclusions leave that option open to questioning.

No beliefs in this regard have changed, this is only your perception of
events. Liking or disliking Marisa in particular has little to do with
questioning something she claimed or disagreeing with something she says. I
don't know Marisa, only know what she's posted and that's what's being
responded to. She could be a witch or, she may not be - merely declaring
herself as one and selling recipe spells neither makes her one nor precludes
her from being one. Questions are intended to reach a conclusion based not
only upon 'logic' but, upon the patterns of how she responds, (or doesn't
respond to questions which "annoy" her). We could check to see if she
weighs as much as a duck but, what would that really tell anyone other than
it being yet another Monty Python reference?
>
>You are asking her to explain and be accountable for that which you

Incorrect. These same questions apply to anyone, myself included.
There is very little to go on to determine whether Marisa is particularly
"strong" or 'weak'. Having the brass ovaries to list spells at up to $2,000
apiece is no indicator of this.

Her "face" hasn't been around to post so, this has mainly been
post-commentary response.
I woke up thinking about you because I read this last night.
Everyone lives in a mixture of defined reality.
If you have a certain problem or asset, or you have a goal or path in
life, you pick the person/people to enhance this part of your life and
help you to fulfill it.
For good or not, we co-create what happens in our lives.
