I've just recently joined the bulletinboard community with the purchase of a new computer. There's so much lively discussion. It's refreshing to enjoy this communication after dealing all day with the humdrum world. So, what's happening with you? What occult activities are going on in your area? Here in L.A. the Thelemic community is active, centered around Baphomet Lodge, O.T.O. and a new Thelemically oriented Golden Dawn style order called The Temple of Thelema. The several years I've spent in it have been the best, most fulfilling of my life. Of course, there's always fascinating and unusual events happening here held by the various pagan and wiccan oriented groups. L.A. is a busy city. Well, that's all for now. 93. 718499927771849992777184999277718499927771849992777184999277718 From: Jonathon Blake Area: MagickNet To: Tony Iannotti 3 Sep 92 09:03:12 Subject: The Book Of Toth Rec'd UpdReq quoting TONY IANNOTTI To: JONATHON BLAKE ___------------------------------------------------------------------------ TI}>Sounds Great!

Female? UpdReq Quoth Domi O to Erin: prepositions and possessives. Where is your teacher from? --------------------------------------------------------- Well, he's from good ol' Texas, where I live. Not ideal. The whole group study situation is not ideal, and not the way I would choose to learn a language ifn I had my druthers. But it's what's available. I dislike the book, but he's willing to look at others, so I intend to show him your earlier post. What I hate the most is having to cram in study time amongst teaching time. I'm learning Ver-r-r-y slowly. But the way I look at it, I'm learning faster than if I didn't study at all. And it took me years to learn Japanese well enough to be able to translate and teach it. Of course, Japanese is simpler than Irish. And there aren't 80 million exceptions to the rules of aspiration and eclipsis, etc. But if I can learn to at least recognize 5000 Chinese characters, I can learn Irish. At least so I keep telling myself. I'm not sure where we're going after I master Munster. He wants to cover all the dialects. So we will probably get to Donegal. Course, I may be on Medicare by that time.

(the only seven I find in 216 is the six lines plus a summary) What I should have said was that the Equinox III(7) was called the Shih Yi, but that it's contents are the Yi King. However, some books, like the Tao Teh King, Liber Nike, and Liber Cadaveris, did have more than one number. 718499927771849992777184999277718499927771849992777184999277718 From: Wind-Walker Area: MagickNet To: Airmid 5 Sep 92 03:36:20 Subject: Info And Questions UpdReq quoting AIRMID To: ALIA ___------------------------------------------------------------------------ AI}>AL> I also am not sure about this net stuff, the AI}>AL> vocabulary and how it work AI}>AL>and all that.
