Riding the Magick Plane

Thursday, January 10th, 2008

Nevermind the magick bus, take a ride on a magickal plane! That’s what Chikumbutso Mponda of Ntchisi did, just remember to pack a magickal parachute (something Chikumbutso forgot to do). According to according to the Daily Times (Malawi) this fine young chap, along with a friend paid for a trip on a minibus from Lilongwe to his home village They seemingly could not afford fare for the entire trip so they got off at Mponda sometime late Christmas Eve. Fearing for their lives (I guess it’s dangerous there after dark) they decided to take a magick plane for the rest of the trip.

Unfortunately, Mponda fell from the magic plane after it flew over a house at Mponela Trading Centre, which was heavily protected magically. At least that is what Kondwani Kandiado (a police Public Relations Office) said. He went on to say that the owners of the home stripped him and confiscated all of his belongings.

Of course the office also said that the people that found him were just returning from a drinking spree, so their word must be accurate. On their word, and by law, Chikumbutso Mponda was sentenced to five years hard labor without options.

It’s good that the governments around the world are making a stand against the evils of witchcraft.

Gas from a Stone

Monday, November 26th, 2007

A woman claiming to be able to use magick to be able to produce gas from stone was given two head of cattle, three buffaloes, money, a car and a piece of land from Mugabe and other cabinet ministers, promising in return to use spells to produce the diesel. The Zimbabwe president Robert Mugabe must really feel like an ass now that she was not able to give what was promised.

Rather then calling up some super natural powers to get the gas she promised, she called some oil tankers and simply had it piped in…

The Gay Ghost of the George Hotel

Monday, November 26th, 2007

Someone recently sent me a humorous article from gaywired.com about a group of paranormal investigators that looked into some ghostly activity at The George Hotel in North Norfolk (UK).

The article reads like every other ghastly investigation and mentions the normal EMF meters, laser thermometers, camcorders, and of course night vision. It talks about whether or not specks of light were orbs or dust, hair standing on end, and even the tugging on belts and hair. Ya know, the typical ghost hunter type stuff.

Near the end they talk about a waiter that when attempting to get into the dry storage room some ghost starts yanking on the zipper of his pants. Enough to give a snicker, right?

You betcha! Especially when the article ends with the undead culprit being a male that used to work in the bakery…apparently trying to get a piece of tail, even in the afterlife.

I wonder if anyone would be willing to give it a go on some reality show for the playboy channel, or maybe even Gaywired.com. While I’m not all that interested in homosexual activity, though ghostly activity is something I like, so I would like to know the outcome of such an event ;) Of course, I’d not mind finding a straight ghost willing to tug on my trousers…

The Witches of Waukesha Wisconsin

Wednesday, October 10th, 2007

I have several google alerts set up for various “occult terms” such as Witchcraft, Pagan, Magick, and Occult, and many of them give me the strangest things. Like an article about Chris Pagan trying to sell his car, or the current Events of Druid Hills Idaho. There are also many hits on books like Harry Potter, but now and again I get some real gems and I just have to share them with someone, and today that someone is you!

In Waukesha Wisconsin recently there was a lady in her back yard where she was apparently dancing about and singing strange songs along with her iPod around a bonfire that her neighbors mistook as some strange spell casting. Why did they make this mistake? I bet you are thinking a witch hunt in middle America right? Wrong…the lady is completely bonkers, and the mistake is likely easily made by anyone.

Point One: She recently changed her name from Brenna K. Barney to Moon Fyre which is likely a sign that the better majority of her magickal knowledge comes from Llewellyn Publishing. But I guess there is no crime in that.

Point Two: No, she was not skyclad, but she was only in a teeshirt and her undies.

Point Three: She was buring her bonfire in a pre-fab firepit. Likely due to local ordinances which she was trying not to break (bless her heart). Nothing loony there right…wrong. She was not using wood for the fire, but rather Rubber Car mats, and a cooler.

Point Four: When the police got there she completely ignored them, in fact, she took lighter fluid and sprayed it on her already melting and black smoke billowing fire pit. All the while belting out whatever song was playing on her glorious iPod.

Point Five: She is a self employed Psychic, and a self professed “Solitary Eclectic Witch” (Ok, I guess that’s pretty normal).

Point Six: She didn’t bother to appear in court but claims that she was happy with the outcome… A fine for $249 dollars for a public disturbance and resisting arrest.
(read more?)

The main reason I think I found humor in that was because the very next Google Alert had the following Headline and short:

Identifying Mental Illness

The following is the highlight of that article:

Behaviour Symptomatic of Mental Illness: Mental illness is an ailment which needs to be treated clinically (like diabetes, hypothyroidism). Contrary to popular belief, mental illness cannot be mitigated by yoga, meditation, witchcraft, black magic or prayer.

The article did not say all that much other then that, I’ll not give a link, as it’s overly filled with spam…but those two alerts in a row certainly did seem to go hand in hand.
