So, how are the cloisters today?
</STRONG>
My cloisters? Couldn't you tell from that hug?
HA!
I'm OK! Too much studying and work. OH! That reminds me: did you say you are studying witchcraft? If Hekate ever stops back in, you should discuss - she's into that stuff.
'course, being a monk, I was the one DOING the burning, not getting burned, so I can add a different perspective to your discussion!

Yeah, one of my courses is on magic in late antiquity, and I'm thinking about writing my dissertation on medieval witchcraft
Didn't know Hekate was into that stuff, wonder if she'll be back...
LOL

Great comedy. OK, here's an odd one for you: did you ever see a British comedy called: 'Allo, 'Allo? It was set in a little French cafe during WWII - ?
THAT was funny stuff! I only ask, 'cos you're British and all...

Of course! That was funny!

AH! You DO know it! I have been praying and praying that they would put those out on DVD (or even VHS), but I doubt it will happen.
Have you seen any DVD or VHS of that show around there (Britain, I mean)?

Oh yes, memories of sitting in front of the TV on a Sunday evening with my family when I was younger... Oh, the nostalgia...
Hmmm, well I can't say I've ever looked for it, but I think it may be available on VHS, most BBC series are...

Greek Magical papyrus, ancient study of herbs, a few greek and latin incantations.
I practice a little modern, but my magical roots are in antiquity. You are a medivalist? Any Hildegaard of Bingen?

Well, not really, I am thinking about researching medieval witchcraft for my dissertation but I haven't actually read up on it much, as yet.
The course I'm doing is magic in antiquity though (focused on Jewish magic), I believe we will be looking at the Greek magical papyri as part of that

Ever turn anyone into a toad? It's a lot of fun!!
Hey, wait Demosthenes just said that a band of rapscallions named the Triballi just eat my offering.
There is going to be an amphibian fest tonight! Demosthenes calls and I must answer.
Poof!

Sadly my course focuses more on the historical than the practical aspects
But it sounds fun, maybe you could teach me sometime?
Edit: gotta get to bed anyway, seeya Hekate

Okay, just one tip before I return to antiquity. Find yourself a nice, jolly munk, preferable one slightly inebriated. He'll never know what hit him.
