Well, it’s about time for one of my pot roast chickens anyway. Does stuffing the bird with onion, carrot, and celery count as stuffing it? Because I don’t put dressing made of bread inside the bird, I cook it outside the bird if I make it at all. ---

Yes, physical items which can be used for magic are still acceptable; what’s not is the performing of magical acts. A tarot pack or a box of incense sticks are OK; a tarot reading is not. And of course, when I read the article the ads I got were for a psychic consultant. ---

Cool. I remember once upon a time I bought a tube of [hex converters](http://www.google.com/imgres?imgurl=http://www.sky-macau.com/Product-Images/CD4049-HEF4049-HCF4049-CMOS-Hex-Inverting-Buffer-Converter-SOP-16-M4455783491.jpg&imgrefurl=http://www.sky-macau.com/Products/CD-Series-C142/CD4049-HEF4049-HCF4049-CMOS-Hex-Inverting-Buffer-Converter-SOP-16-P4455783491.html&usg=__osdPAGM4GWzV8X085Tb2Lnna_JA=&h=400&w=400&sz=58&hl=en&start=79&sig2=J58KtKa8qMeuK4O7Xh4iSA&zoom=1&tbnid=YTtt0yFrJ1IL0M:&tbnh=124&tbnw=124&ei=jkQ0UMq0GIXbiwLkt4GQAg&prev=/search%3Fq%3Dhex%2Bconverter%26start%3D60%26um%3D1%26hl%3Den%26safe%3Dactive%26sa%3DN%26rls%3Dcom.microsoft:*%26rlz%3D1I7RNQN_enUS495%26tbm%3Disch&um=1&itbs=1) for making protective amulets. It’s good to know that will still be possible. ---

Damn it, when am I going to get bat guano and pinches of sulfur now? Looks like my enemies will be safe from my righteous 5d6 fire damage in a 30 foot spread! ---

Phew! You can still buy [homeopathic ass itch lotion](http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Native-Remedies-Anal-Itch-Assist-Homeopathic-to-relieve-itching-and-burning-/261081598990?pt=UK_Health_Beauty_Natural_AlternativeTherapies&hash=item3cc9ad0c0e#ht_1022wt_1009), thank heavens. Edit: actually, I misread. It’s not a lotion. You take it orally. But of course. [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/no-more-magic-on-ebay/631960.md?page=1)
