Let's get the >> Magick back into alt.magick.******* bloodofenoch@goddamnfruit.com (Andralphus): >Cat is a cool lady; Nagasiva is a very very lucky Satantrist. you're both very kind and I'm glad of your sentiments. to quote one of my remaining quasi-heavy-metal CDs on the subject, however IS IT LUCK?: Is It Luck? ----------- My socks and shoes always match Is it luck? There's a foot at the end of each of my legs Is it luck? I can play my bass for you Is it luck? Some gals like to kiss my face Is it luck? Is it luck? ... Well is it? There was food inside your mouth today Is it luck? Your barber cuts your hair just so Is it luck? Well you can count to ten and back again Is it luck? When the taste of sex is on your lips Is it luck? Is it luck? ... Well then? Cyanide works oh so fast Is it luck? Polyester makes you sweat Is it luck? If a graham cracker gets you off Is it luck? Love. Love? Is it luck? Is it luck? ... Well hey?!! She said she wanted my body not my mind So I showed her my dictionary To show the words that I know How loquacious I can be When I set my mind down to it, But she wasn't impressed. Oh no no no no no no no no She wasn't impressed at all. She whispered in my ear. She said. "Wanna get lucky little boy?" Well I smiled. I smiled and I said: "Is it luck? Is it luck? Is it luck?!" ---------------------------------------- "Is It Luck?", Les Claypool, Primus, 'Sailing the Seas of Cheese', (c) 1991. ======================================== is magic the act of luck-driving? can we tell who is good at magic by who is successful? or is this just a fallacy? does it matter whether someone *intended* to get where they are? being born into riches and power, for example, would seem to indicate that no intention was involved (unless you would like to postulate intention into the circumstances of birth, as some New Agers are wont do). n a B g l b a e e s s a i s s v e t a d ! @yronwode.com
