Site updated, Reverse Phone Look-up & How to Hypnotize Someone
by Michael Robin Cooke on Mar.10, 2010, under Kitschchaos
I’m learning to integrate CSS and html better, and decided the site logo needed to have a friendlier more business friendly look – got to find a balance between business and occult for the unique niche of this website.
As for the “My Kitschchaos” section, it’s a tremendous wealth of technology that threatens my continued use of this word press blog as it has all the functionality of wordpress and then some. But it is a lot to maintain and no one has much as replied to a forum post or even registered for the blog as far as I know. I like Drupal, it was a learning experience setting it up – but I think a very simple forum would get more actual use. So….
As for the ecommerce angle, I’m giving affiliate marketing a shot. Just two affiliates to start. I really wanted to do this with YOU, meaning talk about my strategies and get some ideas from ‘yall and maybe we could work together to win at the ecommerce game. But ‘my kitschchaos’ – it’s getting NO action at all. So I’ll work hard to get some success and use the success to sell the opportunity – it’s a well worn success formula.
I’m starting out doing affiliate marketing, choosing products that I know to be good. The core concept here is to collect email addresses which which to market via email good opportunities in the future. That’s why I’m moving my Law of Attraction material into an expanded pdf edition you need to sign up to get. I have two other projects in the wings, already online, and another 8 I’m thinking about.
I have a landing page for a cool commercial reverse phone look up service. It’s just the thing if you buy stuff online and you have charges on your bank account that you don’t remember, that seem mysterious and sometimes aren’t legitimate. Of course if you spouse or dating partner takes a lot of calls, it’s a way to check up on just who s/he is calling if you’re feeling jealous. Reverse phone lookup, it works for cell phones and unlisted numbers too.
The other offer is an advanced course on Ericksonian hypnosis. The promotion may seem bullshitty, but the techniques are very powerful. If you want to know how to hypnotize someone, this is the real deal. It’s guaranteed, you have 60 days to try the product and if you don’t like it for any reason, you can get a full refund in that time period.
I am working on an e-book about Eriksonian hypnosis myself, back when I did sales I got some information on conversational hypnosis to help me with sales, so I know a little something, and what I don’;t know I’m reviewing. And I’ll put it all in an ebook to bribe folks to sign up for my mailing list before taking them to the hypnosis course offer.
It’s all one mailing list, I’ll mail a link to a page with all the exclusive e-books I’ve written to everyone on the mailing list – so if you get on the list now to get the Law of Attraction e-book available now, you’ll have access to all future e-books I’m giving away.
Eriksonian hypnosis is interesting stuff. Milton Erickson, a psychotherapist and psychologist, pioneered the technique of hypnotizing people with nothing more than a simple conversation. Dr. Erickson theorized that the unconscious mind is always alert and present at the same time the conscious mind is. So by use of subtle language and metaphor, Milton Erickson would talk to the conscious mind and plant ideas in the unconscious mind at the same time.
Clearly, a little insight into this hypnosis technique can push your copy-writing and presentations to the next level and beyond. The hypnosis program comes with many FREE ebooks on hypnosis you can try out first. You will enjoy the easy the confidence of knowing how to communicate an idea to a person and his subconscious at the same time with this program. The conversational hypnosis course is worth every penny. The Eriksonian training is usually made available only to registered doctors and psychotherapists, so it’s very special that an expert is making this training available to the public.

It’s “Law of Attraction – The Kitschchaos way”, yes, it’s based on a blog post by a similar name but it has been revised and includes a great deal of additional new information.
If you’ve read the article you already know I have an answer for the problems many people have with a Law of Attraction practice and that I do an excellent job of introducing the subject to someone new to the subject.
This is the e-book version you can read at home and share with friends (please, I encourage you to!) – and it’s revised and expanded with new material! You want this e-book, I promise you!
The e-book is free, all you need to do is sign up for the Kitschchaos email list. It’s distinct from the rss feed for this blog. I email infrequently, it’s a private email list I will never share, and it’s a great way to keep tabs on special opportunities provided by this site.

Grace Groner -Model Millionaire
by Michael Robin Cooke on Mar.05, 2010, under Kitschchaos

A ’secret millionaire’, Grace Groner on passing has donated SEVEN MILLION dollars to here alma mater, Lake Forest College.
And no one had a clue she was a millionaire! The news stories stress how she had been a child of the Great Depression and learned to be frugal from that experience. Her money is from an $180 stock purchase in 1935 and her reinvesting those profits. She worked as a secretary and lived in a one bedroom house for 43 years.
What I want to do is put a correct focus on this. The usual reaction is a kind of ‘gosh-wow!’ and walking away from the story thinking the woman eccentric or crazy to have been so rich while being so under the radar.
But Grace lived life with greater wealth than most millionaires – she had friends that liked her, she held a job that made her productive and useful.
My last landlord, when I lost my job and was behind on rent, told me “What, you think I should get a job?”, for him modest real estate wealth meant a responsibility to never work again!
Many rich people have serious problems. All friends, unless they are as rich as they are, have suspect motives – so you inevitably become at least mildly misanthropic. And the friends as rich as yourself – put you in a position to maybe feel ‘not rich enough’. There are many millionaires that feel impoverished.
Now the problem, it’s a real problem – it has nothing to do with money and everything to do with being stupid about wealth.
Grace Groner isn’t a model millionaire because she didn’t use her resources to live a lavish lifestyle. She’s a model millionaire because she lived a life rich with positive experiences, good friends, fun.
Which brings us to a simple idea. What is valuable in life, what we want – are experiences. The things we desire – their purpose is to deliver an experience. That fancy Rolls Royce, actually owning it and driving it – do you feel people watching you in admiration or contempt? Driving in the Rolls – do you become James Bond? Does your penis grow two sizes? Really, maybe you should return your car to the dealer explaining – “It didn’t work, I’m not James Bond and my penis is still the same size.”
Which brings us to the core problem of Law of Attraction, Magic and wealth, if you have it: What do you really want?
So here’s the key exercise. Do this, and take your time with it.
If there are no limitations or consequences, describe in detail, your perfect typical day. Who do wake in bed with? what kind of bed? What are you wearing? What is your partner wearing? Do you have a pet? Do you take a bath or shower? Describe the bath or shower….
And go on, what you eat for breakfast, what you spend your day doing, who your friends are – lunch, afternoon evening – YOUR PERFECT TYPICAL DAY!
Do it now, or do it soon. And the exercise may consume many pages.
What this will do for you? Well, it will jump start the law of attraction into working towards something genuine. Give you a context for magic that will be more successful, more in line with your ‘true will’ as Crowley would suggest. And it will put you in a position, when wealth comes to you, to use it and not have it use you.

The madness of John Patrick Bedell
by Michael Robin Cooke on Mar.05, 2010, under Kitschchaos
John Patrick Bedell, the Pentagon shooting suspect who is accused of opening fire at a pre-screen area outside the metro station leading to the Pentagon. Two guards live with minor injuries and John died of defensive gunfire.
There’s a madness going on.
The doomsday 2012, is this a sign?
Really I believe it’s the economy. The middle class has been hit hard, it’s quite a blow to have been making $50,000 a year, getting fired and finding the next best employer is an entry level position at burger king. And no, that’s not the whole story. But it’s enough people’s stories and the attachment to what had been creates a strong enough suffering to…drive a person to madness.
Taking a few steps back, what the USA is looking more like is kind of a Dickenson paradigm – with very few very rich and the poor and middle class both impoverished.
Thank heavens for the ‘Tea baggers’ in a way, it gives a release to this fear and anger.
Now I can get political and talk about how I believe a progressive tax makes management eschew too large a salary and instead pad the salaries of employees – which is the way it was from FDR to Jimmy Carter. How protectionism is important to preserve and develop jobs. But the points are arguable and arguing them really doesn’t do much to help anyone in the here and now.
Now if you are angry or frightened, it helps to do something. Call your congressman, participate in a protest.
As a magician, this is what ‘black magic’ really is for. Don’t go up to the Pentagon and draw a gun, whatever you do, don’t do that. Instead, if you really are that angry – write your evil intent, make the sigil, dress it with your blood, maybe a spare tax form, and burn it as you launch it!
And really believe “it is done” after you do the magic.
The important thing is that you exorcised your angry intent far more safely than drawing a gun on Pentagon guards. And, a word of warning – be prepared for something bad to happen to your target. If you feel you might feel guilty – try meditation instead of magic.
As for what we can do when there’s no jobs…. You have to start a business. Especially if you are older, the jobs you have held taught you the business in which you worked, you CAN START A BUSINESS! Make your own job if there are no jobs!
I’m working on that now myself. Doing maybe some freelance webdesign, starting an ecommerce venture I’ll be talking about soon too. Also – please check out the shirts I have for sale at zazzle.com – advertised on this very blog!, I’ll have some St. Patties designs this coming Monday! Promise!
It’s the end of the world, everyone is going mad! Cthulhu is coming! Look busy!

Foreclosure?
by Michael Robin Cooke on Mar.03, 2010, under Kitschchaos
Foreclosure, it’s not over yet.
Many people with homes and loans against their home were qualified for a responsible and superior flat rate loan but lenders pushed everyone into risky variable rate loans for the quick profit. The context of rising home prices had bankers hypnotized, believing even the least credit worthy borrower was legitimate as long as the investment was in real estate – and as the variable rate loan is the most profitable for them they tried to push EVERYONE into that model of loan.
There are a lot of scams, no one can gaurantee a loan modification – it’s up to YOUR lender, and any service you might use is a gamble at best, sometimes the modification only saves you $20 or so.
The modern reality today is if you have a mortgage on your home, it’s likely your mortgage is now worth more than your home with the fall of home values.
If paying that mortgage is too difficult, if the home is not your family home, sometimes the best choice is to …walk away from that mortgage.
I’m going to recommend I business website, this is unusual but I saw the CEO interviewed on the Thom Hartman show, checked out his website and I’m impressed it’s an excellent resource for sound information. It’s covers all of your options and help you make the best decision for your situation.

Corporatocracy now law, Obama is ‘Agnostic’ about higher taxes
by Michael Robin Cooke on Feb.11, 2010, under Kitschchaos

The recent Supreme Court ruling that eliminates limits on corprorate political spending , some have argued this will have a terrible impact on government, other’s have argued it’s Free Speech and all good, some have argued it will have no impact on government at all.
The Democrats have been trying to create a ‘fix’ before Novenber elections. What I don’t understand is why the effort isn’t bi-partisan. What defines fascism (Italian Fascism under Mussolini) is exactly Corporate influence in government.
But now it seems clear the Supreme Court ruling is impacting the behavior of President Obama. Until this week, President and candidate Obama has been very clear and consistent that he meant to raise taxes on the most wealthy citizens, represented by the investment class, owners of Corporate Stock.
Following this Supreme Court Ruling, what is the best way NOW, to manage public relations as president? Appease that investment class, if the President does NOT they can force their corporations to spend limitless money to fight the election of Democrats.
What can WE do? As citizens we are consumers, Corporations can be beholden to US. What does a corporation NOT want to do? Alienate their customers!
But if Corporations are going to spend money to influence OUR government – we can demand corporations not have it both ways! If a corporation is supporting Repubican candidates: that corporation is ANTI GAY, ANTI-ABORTION, ANTI IMMIGRANT…etc. Every divisive political bias of a candidate supported, can be projected upon the corporation spending the money.
So we can let people know, I don’t buy that brand of toilet paper ’cause it’s anti Gay, I don’t buy that gasoline ’cause they are baby killers! I wish we could do more, but we CAN do THAT!
What this also means is that as a small business, even a token contribution to a cause or a candidate can be used as a marketing ploy. A business too large can halve it’s customers that way, but if you’re a small business it might help distinguish you, help you offer a unique buying opportunity.

Google Search Personalization and SEO
by Michael Robin Cooke on Feb.10, 2010, under e-commerce
If you use Google search, you know than when you use the search engine, it remembers the sites you clicked on before on a search and moved those links to the top of your search when you again search for that same term. Especially if you’re trying to gauge your search engine results, your own search will yield your own site at the top of the listings after a while. (I have several browsers on my computer and one I reserve for use with google search engine results and nothing else).
This can concern those invested in search engine optimization. If people only find their favorite sites at the top of google search results – how will they ever find MY site?
So, relax. The Google ranking algorithms are the SAME as they ever were for any new search. People will always check out a new site and if you rank well your site will bet there on the first page below those sites the user is already sick and tired of. Because if they wanted to go to that favorite site – they’d hit a bookmark or key in the url (automatically in modern browsers) and bypass Google entirely.
Really, the personalization Google offers in searches is customer service and doesn’t impact Search Engine Optimization practices. Focus on key words in domain names, html page urls, titles – and content. Make the content worth while, update the content regularly, and fish for back links regularly. SEO in a nutshell and it still works.

Toyota Problems… a magic opportunity for American cars?
by Michael Robin Cooke on Feb.08, 2010, under Kitschchaos
Toyota is having public relations problems for being so slow to act on car problems and now they have a broad car recall in effect.
Here’s the Toyota link to see if your Toyata car is being recalled.
This is happening just as American car manufacturers are defying business failure and releasing new cars for sale. All of America is hoping the best for them, should the companies fail, so too will their distributors and other related businesses – it will be a huge blow to an already broken American economy.
That collective hope, there’s a magic to it. And, indeed, I’m sure many prayed and some cast spells to help the American Auto Industry. And now there’s a result – the mighty Toyota has fallen. American cars have a chance now, to prove themselves.
I’m an urban person, at the age of 43, having lived with the benefit of city subways and buses almost all my life – I now find myself having never owned a car and for the first time in my life – learning how to drive.
So I know little about cars, but awareness of recent events and understanding the challenges of parking – I know the car I want is small and economical. My first car will be a used car, and very likely it will be a used Toyota, because the brand makes reliable cars and the best used cars are very often Toyotas. Unless I find a used Dodge Dart – I like that one.
But when I’m making good money, I will buy my first new car. I want an American made electric car as good or better than a Toyota Prius. What I’ve seen of new American cars is too large, not fuel efficient and not electric. It’s not what I want in a new car, I doubt I’m alone.
Which brings us to a secret of magic – the result which always could be coincidence – it’s always an opportunity. How the result will turn out for you depends on what you do with that opportunity. If someone you are attracted to winks at you, go ask them for that first date. If you cast for an instant financial windfall, buy a lottery ticket, enter a poker game, bet on a horse (whatever is most ‘reliable’ for you).
And if you cast for a business opportunity – you better deliver better value when you get that opportunity! I hope American Automobile manufacturers understand and are delivering real value.
There is the unreleased Chevrolet Volt, I’m critical of the look of the body, but the specs are excellent. I hope it can be made available soon and be reasonably priced.

Black History Month
by Michael Robin Cooke on Feb.03, 2010, under Kitschchaos
February is American Black History Month.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Black_History_Month
Now, I’m White and in this day and age with Barack Obama as president, there are some that would suggest racial awareness is itself racist. But it is really only a very small step to realize that every other month of the year is functionally ‘White history month’.
So as a White man, what have I to be grateful to Black people and Black culture for?
Let me state here that it’s terribly ironic that African Americans comprise an economic underclass – African American culture shapes global culture: Jazz, Blues, Rock n Roll, Hip Hop, even Hardcore Punk Rock. Seriously, my ipod playlist would be stripped to less than a dozen songs were it not for gifts from Black culture.
As an American occultist, it is the magic and religion from Africa that sets a high bar for results for other magicians to measure themselves against. It’s no accident that much of my magical influence is African American Hoodoo.
It is the Black Civil Right struggle that set the bar for all civil rights struggles that follow. Dr. Martin Luthor King demonstrated the power of non-violence, understanding it’s effectiveness in shaping public opinion. Malcolm X demonstrated the power of a threat of violence, a threat that in my opinion empowered Dr. King’s movement.
Dr. King, the Black Panther Party too, came to understand that everyone must have equal rights or no one will, and they came to support rights for women, gay people and to support positions against the Vietnam war.
This is early Bad Brains, they later became one of the very fastest musically excellent playing punk bands they inspired a legion of imitators yielding an entire subculture of Punk Rock called “HardCore”.
This is Bad Brains studio version of I against I – to give y’all a taste of fast Bad Brains. One of the most influential bands of all time.
This is a reading of Frederick Douglas’s speech, from the People’s History of the United States
One of Malcolm X’s better speeches in my humble opinion.
Aunt Carolina Dyer Blues, song about the Graet Hoodoo woman of years past – more information here.
Muddy Waters singing about Mojo hands, tricks – Hoodoo magics!
Okay, there’s a lot more really good information about Black History. This is the month for you to do your own research, find your own videos, books and news archives! I could’ve done more, but I think I’ve posted enough for a blog post.
If you want to do something important and you are not Black – make a Black friend! Seriously, American culture is homogenized enough there’s no reason to not have a lot of really cool Black friends.

MAGIC – Guaranteed results!
by Michael Robin Cooke on Dec.27, 2009, under Kitschchaos
Gotta love google advertising, always there on my blog to suggest new topics for my blog. And it would be nice if y’all would click on some of the ads to satisfy your curiosity, I get paid!
This is really a business post AND a magical post.
First, the business.
I have this crazy idea. Selling a time machine, one that does not work, and giving a 60 day money back guarantee. What do you suppose would happen?
Ignoring that there are metaphorical tricks (a history book as time machine for example) – it’s pretty well established that people with guarantees for products that do not work rarely if ever take the trouble to get their money back. With a guaranteed time machine that doesn’t work – I believe I could make a profit! Someone, call my bluff! That’s all I need to do it, someone to dare me! LOL!
When it comes to a guaranteed business plan, few buyers will even put in effort enough to establish it doesn’t work.
And guaranteed magic – it’s all subjective! Are you sure the magic didn’t provide an opportunity you didn’t take advantage of?
So here’s the thing, there’s almost never a good reason to not offer a money back guarantee. It helps close the sale and all you have to do is escrow your profits a little. Sure some people will ask for their money back – but it’ll close the sale on so many more people it’s a winning formula!

Now let’s talk about magic.
Let me share a personal anecdote from my youth. I was 13 in Junior High School, I often stank of the dogs I walked in the morning before school and I was a combination of very smart, small and ‘weird’: I was picked on and abused by bullies regularly.
One Monday, when a particularly dangerous bully had publicly promised to do me harm – the Bully never showed up. I joked casually and sardonically that he didn’t show up due to my magic powers.
-The Bully never ever showed up again – he’d been transfered to a school for the emotionally impaired. And I was no longer a target of bully violence, my magic powers were believed. Instead people that had been bullies approached me to make them a ‘love potion’.
The Love potion I made, I remember it – mayonnaise, mustard, baking soda and Worcestershire sauce mixed into a paste and used to stuff gelatin capsules. Gross and magically impotent.
Here’s what I learned: the LOVE POTIONS WORKED! The guys I gave the capsules to ask for more and told all their friends that I was for real. Just before I attended Stuyvesant High School, full of bright kids that don’t believe in magic – I was the wizard of IS70! True Story!
What does this mean? There’s an argument that belief by itself is the means of magic, this may not be the entire story, but it is part of the story!
So every magician offering their services should gaurantee results! It suggests your authority, that fact there’s money exchanged creates expectation of the result – it engenders belief. and belief is damned important, even if it’s ‘merely’ subconscious (this is how skeptics often are easy targets for magicians).
As for the magicians offering their services, please use the one’s advertising on this site. Even though you understand that it’s a mind game – it can still work for you. Really, the advertising magicians can get it done! Especially if it’s easier to belief someone else can do something. I know I have better success casting spells for others than myself* too.
Of course for myself, it’s a point of pride to do my magic myself. If you’ve a similar idea – check out my sigil magic article and some of the other posts here.
*if the spell is for someone else, there’s no ‘lust for result’ on the part of the spell caster.
