| 2009-11-02 | Sivos | 10 | 10 | 10 | 10 | No | Thanks for the help, I did do some research on protection spells but I couldn't tell which sites/books were the real deal and not someone making fun of Wicca. Many people have told me to watch out for stuff like that. Today, I went up on your tip on Yahoo and bought Wicca: A Guide for the Solitary Practitioner by Scott Cunningham also I bought Book of Shadows by Scott Cunningham. In the Book of Shadows he mentioned the same spell you just mentioned, so I'm sure I have what I'm looking for. Thank you again. |

| 2009-02-19 | C. L. Houser | 10 | 10 | 10 | 10 | No | C. L. Houser side_driver@live.com Reverend Blackthorn - As always the time you take to consult with me is golden. Information you have provided me in your recent response reassures me the right person was chosen. It is your encompassing knowledge of these things that will be of the utmost importance as our project develops. As it stands, I am grinding through my top picks for the investigating team. Things have not gone as smoothly as I had been informed they would. No one is interested, in the slightest, to step outside the normal realms of investigating. (Sonoran Lone Star team referred to my proposal as a 'severe and arrogant breach of safety'.) However, when I find a team with the willingness, open-mindedness, and courage to give this a chance...I will be in touch. I know this seems unorthodox, to the point of being silly. Just remember me, the orchestrator, and the weird e-mails I sent. When the time is right, you'll be glad you did. |
