Comments on: Federally Subsidized Witchcraft? https://globalspin.com/2003/10/federally-subsidized-witchcraft/ a glimpse into the tiny mind of Chris Radcliff Sat, 01 May 2010 03:53:44 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.8 By: debby https://globalspin.com/2003/10/federally-subsidized-witchcraft/comment-page-1/#comment-196 Thu, 23 Oct 2003 15:01:48 +0000 http://globalspin.com/wp/2003/10/21/187/#comment-196 I think it’s just a fad; now everybody wants to ride their brooms like Harry Potter. Where has tradition gone?

First vacuums (after Hocus Pocus) and now this. Goverment subsidies even! I tell ya, witchcraft just ain’t want it used to be!

I figure it was just a light-hearted jokey response to some comment made by a reporter.

“Skarning said Harry Potter was unrealistic. ‘He rides his broom backwards. Real witches ride with the brush part in front,’ she said.”

What?

Two questions jockey for position: Can anyone corroborate this, and is she really talking about riding a flying broom?
