How about:
"The spirit you are trying to reach has been disconnected, please be sure you have the correct spirit in mind and are contacting it correctly." Or "The spirit you are trying to reach is out of this area now."

Hiya, Judge:
The spirit messages I present are selected by a mark...uh, "sitter" from a T.A. Waters prop I built. They're vague, creepy, and meant to be (mis)interpreted in the best post-modern, "all-truth-is- relative-and-can-mean-whatever-you-wish" fashion. Example: I've heard it can reach 112 degrees this time of year. Do you see any cars yet? No, this drink will be enough, thank you; it's already going to my head. She didn't seem at all angry when I told her about you -- wait, call me later. Three more feet, and it would have been all mine. Best regards, Leland |

I have been doing Eugene's Spirit Messages since he first showed it at a lecture years ago. The first time I set up for it, I was crunched for time so I made use of the pile of LA Times that I had been meaning to recycle for 6 feet or so. I plucked as many astrology columns as I could carry, and went throught them typing the horoscopes in one or two sentences at a time. When I had a bunch, I also shuffled the word order a bit, found a suitable font, and printed it on onionskin (or some similar paper that looked a bit like the flash paper).
I now get reminded to bring it to every company event at each of my wife's companies. She finds that lighting her boss's spouse on fire is a good way to get noticed. On occasion I have made up batches of fortunes that were more tuned to the prospective audience. E.g. a collection of political messages before performing at an election night party. In that case, it is critical to know which party the party is for... I have never tried to give specific fortunes to specific people but I know it could be done. One of the best reactions to the effect I have seen came from a random fortune that fit the victim's immediate future too perfectly. Since then, I have pretty much decided to use only random fortunes, and I can participate with the victim in the discovery of the message honestly. All that said, I really like some of the zingers posted here... I may have to update my files.

Why not consider...
While it has been attributed in various forms to a variety of famous wags, I favor the version of the story about Oscar Wilde puckishly sending a crytpic telegram to 25 friends "All is discovered—flee the country at once." And a number apparently did, based on no more than that and their consciences and fears at work. Might make a good spirit message as it is adrench with unease. |

A few serious, and a few not so serious. I think I would pick serious ones designed to create a little unease, make an implication, or provoke a reaction. I might use:
-"I know your secret..." -"I want to stay." -"Give it back!" -"I remember you..." -"All will be revealed." On the lighter side, I might go for some of these: -"You are listening to WDED, golden hits for the afterlife..." -"Coming up next, the evening news..." -"Operator—dimension please?" -"Oh no, not again..." -"Weather is great, wish you were here!" -"Please send money!" -"Postage due." -"No signal." -"Th-th-that's all, folks!"

"I don't care if I AM a lemming - I'M NOT GOING!" is good for a laugh.
"Beware of people with slates" is another. "The problem with small furry creatures in corners is that, once in a while, one of them is a mongoose." - Terry Pratchett, Witches Abroad Or, you could go really, really scary with: "You have been selected for an audit by the Internal Revenue Service." Just some odd bits from my own work... Lee Darrow, C.H.

The lights die out. After the “usual” phenomena the medium makes give the light with a candle. He makes read the message: “I hate you. Jack The Ripper”. The candle dies out. Black out….

It doesn't matter if you're right or wrong, If you're not like the others then you don't belong. |
