Top Curious Email of the Day: Infinite Eternities
I receive in the very least, 100 emails per day, most of them are not worth taking the time to read. But, I never know what email is going to be worth reading and what is not unless I go through them. So, I scan the initial first lines, and sometimes they catch my attention when they are personalized. I am not stupid, however, I am well aware of how easy it is to "personalize" an email using autoresponder software. A couple of days ago I received an email that started out with using my name in a way that made it look like it was from someone who I may actually know. So, I read it. And it is, well, priceless, and I thought I would share it with you.
Hello Denise thank you for your time. My husband and I were wondering if you could do a spell that would allow us to be together for an infinite number of eternitys ( not just one eternity) and each eternity be infinite. We want to live through each infinite eternity together and still always have an infinite number of eternitys to go. Do you think you could do this for us? We really appreciate your time and hope to hear from you soon. :-) |

When I get emails like this, I often run it by Madrina Angelique or Carolina Dean just for shits and giggles and the conversation will often go to sharing of other incidences of receiving such types of emails. Sometimes, during the course of this levity one or the other will reveal they received the very same email in the past. Sometimes it's the exact email, other times there is a slight variation on a theme. In this case, Madrina revealed she got a similar email last year from a husband. As you can see from the email I received, it is from the wife. Is there really such a husband and wife team? Or is this the case of a "bait" email, sent out by individuals who belong to scam forums and attempt to bait practitioners with ridiculous requests an then report back to such forums the response of the practitioner?
Synonym Discussion of BAIT (according to Merriam Webster Online Dictionary)
bait, badger, heckle, hector, chivy, hound mean to harass by efforts to break down. bait implies wanton cruelty or delight in persecuting a helpless victim <baited the chained dog>.hound implies unrelenting pursuit and harassing <hounded by creditors>.

I understand the desire to want to weed out sham practitioners from legitimate ones. But I resent the attempt to be baited. It is a waste of my time. You will learn a whole lot more about me if you read my biography or resume than if you send me a ridiculous request like this. I debated whether or not to respond to the email. Then I decided to just ignore it like do with all other such emails.

So, for those of you who do not know, I do not do spells for hire. Nor am I a psychic. I am an author and a spiritual artist and a medicine woman. Please do not send me emails such as this one, unless of course, you wish to be made an example of in an #armchairhoodoomeme.
Infinite sweet tea, on the other hand, now there's a concept.
