Wicca in the news

A Wiccan is one of the four winners of the California Mega Millions jackpot. He takes home an estimated 3.7 million per year until 2032. Lucky him - but why is a Wiccan in the press? If an Atheist won the jackpot (like me), would they write a feature story - I doubt it. Ellwood "Bunky" Bartlett joined the New Age mystic movement after a tarot card told him to explore his spirituality. Whatever...

Bunky has big plans for the money:

But Bartlett said he knows how at least some of the money will be spent: helping shop owners Lori and Mick Perdue expand Mystickal Voyage to include a holistic healing center and yoga studio. The store has been open for about a year and already expanded once with the addition of a coffee shop. It's there that Bartlett regularly hosts "dragon coffee klatches" and conducts Reiki treatments, a form of Japanese energy healing.

Need I say nutball?

Perhaps if we cast one of our evil atheist spells we might influence the lottery.

That way we could pile money into museums and such.

Yes, nutball ;)
