Crazy Person Alert

Somebody pointed out to me the website of this trance medium: http://www.angiekruger.com/

She claims to be channelling the spirit of a Welshman called "Richard".

There's a drawing of "Richard" on the cover of her book.

Does "Richard" look a tad....familiar?

If you're not getting it, here's a few snippets about "Richard" lifted from her website.

. Angie tells her story: "Before he first came to me in February 2000, I had an urge to buy large purple violets, which I had to take to a certain place in the country by a bridge,and throw them into the water. This compulsion was going round and round in my head, and became so strong that I thought I was having a midlife crisis!"....

Richard took his own life 10 years ago in February, after a period of depression...

"All of a sudden this young guy with floppy dark hair was at the bottom of my bed, wearing a black leather jacket and dark coloured jeans"...

Oh, and the e-mail address is [email protected]


If you're still not getting it....She's pretending her spirit guide is Richey from the Manic Street Preachers!

Evidence that she's a fraud comes from a Manic Street Preachers fan forum- http://www.foreverdelayed.org.uk/forum/ ... 696&page=4 - where somebody posts:

Me and a mate got talking to her on the 2nd Cardiff night of the TIMTTMY tour in 1998. I recognise her from the tattoo.

If I remember correctly she was wearing a Holy Bible tour t-shirt with the sleeves cut off, shedloads of make up, and a dainty neck scarf type thing.

I never thought I'd see her again...



She was at a Cardiff Manics gig in 1998? Impressive for someone who on her website claims that she "didn't know anything about Wales" until "Richard" took her there.

The tattoo mentioned is the rose tattoo on her left arm.

It's also, "coincidentally" the exact same design tattoo that Richey had on his arm.


Jesus, I know Manics fans have a reputation for being scarily obsessive, but this one takes the cake.

I bet she's hoping he doesn't turn up alive now.

Wow - she's used graphology to conclusively 'prove' the existence of her spirit guide. That reminds me of the time I used tea leaf reading to conclusively prove the existence of friendly Venusians.

Well, instead of graphology, how about a bit of literary analysis to check her claim?

Let's compare Richey's song lyrics with "Richard's" poetry on the her website.

First of all, here's a segment of the lyrics to 'Faster' by the Manic Street Preachers

I am an architect, they call me a butcher
I am a pioneer, they call me primitive
I am purity, they call me perverted
Holding you but I only miss these things when they leave

I am idiot drug hive, the virgin, the tattered and the torn
Life is for the cold made warm and they are just lizards
Self-disgust is self-obsession honey and I do as I please
A morality obedient, only to the cleansed repented

I am stronger than mensa, miller and mailer
I spat out plath and pinter
I am all the things that you regret
A truth that washes that learnt how to spell

Mull that over, read through it, let it digest within you.

Now, do the same with this poem from Angie Kruger's website.

I had a bear called Edward, when I was just a lad,
and now grown up I often think of all the fun we had.
His big brown eyes and silly smile would cheer most every day
and often in the summertime, we'd go out side to play.
My Edward was a special bear, though some would call him strange,
sometimes we'd play at make-believe, or board games for a change,
sometimes we'd just sit talking, comparing all our dreams
or other times we'd cuddle up and share courageous schemes.
But one day he want missing, just left and went astray
and some say that the angels flew him far away,
and if that's true I bear no grudge, to deities on high,
I like to think he smiles down upon me from the sky.

Erm....er....wow....It's clearly the exact same literary style!

Good old Richey! At least since he died, he's learnt how to rhyme. Frankly, since Roachford's "Cuddly Toy", there have been nowhere near enough songs about teddy bears. Bring it on, I say!

I'm sorry, but I couldn't help hearing that in my head in a kind of Pam Ayres style accent

 

[Suzie1980]

Wow, the teddy bear poem makes the likes of Of Walking Abortion and Yes seem tame by comparison

What a mentalist, I love it!

 

[Timble2]

It may be that doggerel has a sort of generic familiarity, but I'm sure I've seen something very close to that bear poem somewhere else.

 

[GNC]

It's a lot like the lyrics supposedly channelled by that psychic from John Lennon a few years ago. I wonder if Richey's written a song about Saddam Hussein since he's been on the other side as John Lennon did according to that woman?

Does this person not realise that Hari Seldon is a fictional character?
