Slog - Comments on Today in Curses http://slog.thestranger.com/2007/03/today_in_curses Part One: Sorry So it all started with me writing this column about Faye the Tattooed Psychic which got this outraged response from the sensitive soothsayer. This is the sentence that caused the most trouble: She is loud and exuberant and says she is an ex-biker (divorced from a Bandido), a heavy-metal fan, and a recovering boozer. She says she never said anything about being a boozer. Says she isn't a boozer. And I am so, so, really, genuinely sorry if I fucked that up. Because that is a big, bad way to fuck up. But I could've sworn she...

Maybe your notes were indicating that her ex was an alcoholic?

Put it back in the fridge overnight, then break it in a bowl of water the next morning and look at it (I guess you can tell something from looking at it but I don't know what) and then throw the egg and water away. As far as curse-remedies go, it's pretty no-hassle.

I expect to have you typing it in with a stick gripped in your teeth by April.

Hey, if you want a Turkish magical charm I got at the midway for $3, it's yours! I have had no curses stick since I bought it.

Second, I would be careful of curses. Jimmy Marks put a curse on the city of Spokane years ago. It seems to be working quite well. Rain on every parade. Wind during all fireworks. Jim West. And our serial killers and the lack of response to them beat yours anytime. It's a curious thing that black magic. I wouldn't scoff too much.

I mean, how childish is it to use homosexuality as an insult? And for a supposedly spiritual seattlite she sure sounds more like a conservative redneck.
