I would try some of the old bootlegger's Law Keep Away spells -- Hyatt lists hundreds, as he was collecting shortly after Prohibition ended -- also, he seems to have had a weirdly skewed interrest in this form of magic, since he repeatedly drew out informants to tell him their Law Keep Away spells. I have one from Hyatt online right now (it's in the foot-track magic section, as it employs the foot-tracks of policemen), and i believe in my heart it could be adapted to IRS use, if you could capture the foot tracks of IRS agents. More practically, to avoid an IRS audit, INS raid, or a police bust without having to scoop behind these guys for their foot tracks, i would use the old "crossed pennies nailed to the threshold" spell. Do you know this one? Hyatt gives some variants. I was taught it verbally in Oakland, California, in the 1960s when i was dealing drugs. You nail down a set of copper pennies using two rusty nails per penny, bending the nails over to form X marks across the pennies and hold them in place. The reason this spell works was simple, as it was exploined to me: "Nail 'em down at the door sill and no cops can enter in because they're all X'd out; they can't cross over. And if you use rusty nails, make 'em suffer." In this equation, the cops are aymbolized by the copper coins. How many pennies? Hyatt gives a bunch of variations, and eventually i will dig them out and put a few online. I was told, "Four pennies, and arrange them in a cross" (that is, four crossed pennies arrayed in a cross pattern). Facing heads or tails outward? Again, there are variations to be found, but i was told, "Put them down with the Indian facing out." In those days, we could still occasionally find Indian Head pennies in change, but even then that was an archaic instruction and i loved the way it sounded! Why heads up? "So the Big Chief will keep a look-out for you, like a scout, keep them off your tail." With this understanding behind the positioning of the coins, i'm not sure that modern Lincoln pennies would be as effective, for Lincoln, having been a lawyer, would not be too asiduous in protecting someone from the law! Indian Head Pennies in fair condition can be had cheaply at any coin store. > Oh, by the way cat, can you tell me how to put an e-mail link, if > that's what its called in my postings?

Sure, it's called a "mailto" -- it's just the words "mail to" with a colon, followed by the email address, all run together in a string -- here's one as a sample: mailto:chriswar@bellatlantic.net If you are reading mail or news with a modern browser, when you click on the mailto, it will open up an email form with the recipient already specified.
