Well, I believe the usual price is your immortal soul...at least that's what I've heard. How you go about setting up the meeting, I am not sure...

Why not just make a deal with Conrad Black instead?

Involves a signature in blood, as I recall, and I gather there are no re-negotiation clauses. There was a wonderful short story by.... oh, hell, American sci-fi writer.... yes, Bradbury, I think, on the subject. I think the general procedure was that you just generally shout your offer aloud to the wind, and he hears and visits you.

Speaking purely personally, I find that the same method works rather better with the other side, thank you very much!

INTERVIEWER: Are you the famous 'Doctor Faustus', the infamous German necromancer and astrologer who sold his soul to the Devil in exhange for knowledge and power?

FAUST: I am Dokor Faust.

INTERVIEWER: Then is it true that you sold your soul to the Devil?

FAUST: No it is not. I am merely a humble scientist doing private research.

INTERVIEWER: Then how do you explain the fact that you are still alive after some 5 or 6 hundred years?

FAUST: Good genes?

INTERVIEWER: Is this your wife? (A buxom you woman in flimy dress, apparent age 19)

FAUST: She is an old friend of the family.

INTERVIEWER: Has anyone ever told you look exactly like Dick Clark?

FAUST: Yes. Next question.

INTERVIEWER: That's all the time we have, I really must be going.

FAUST: Just out of curiosity, what is your blood type?

Come to London, Ontario (Canada). The devil may be there. According to the pastor of the Missionary Church of Christ, one of his parishioners may have been possessed by the Devil. The pastor, Guillermo Fabian, said that at a service, the 19-year old was confused, mixing up English and Spanish and talking very strange. His parents tied him in a chair and denied him food and water. He died. According to today's Calgary Herald, the parents have been charged with murder. Apparently the pastor won't be charged.

Crossroads at midnight . . . or, as I was told in the late '60s by someone who was with someone who at least thought about trying, you seek "Mary Worth" in a mirror.

(Does that count as a "friend of the cousin of my boss's ex-wife's uncle's barber's car guy who read it on the internet"?)

If you have an deal in your head already, the deal is done. Cause she knows all and is ready to retrieve. Before you know it, you got what you want. And she will let you know that she exists. When the time is near, you'll realize that you've already made the deal (you suddenly notice little simple things most of the time beginning with extreem coincidence)...and there is no turning back I think...Just let it come over you....but don't think about it.

Marry MacLeod's right--crossroads is the place. Make sure it's Legba you meet, though--accept no substitutes. You might end up making a deal with Santa instead of Satan, and then where would you be?

First you really have to believe you have an immortal soul to trade, then you must assess its value, after all, if you don't think it's worth anything, "the other party to the deal" won't either and that should kipper the deal.

By the bye, if you are looking for a cross-roads, make sure it's one with a "hanging tree" (preferably one used by suicides) it all adds to the atmosphere (and if anyone offers you fern seeds.....).

Go to the tool menu, click on it, then double click "deals with" from the drop down box, then right click on "devil" and select contracts. Read over all the fine print carefully. *Tip (Use the font tool to increase text size if necessary.) When finished, click on the "I agree" button at the bottom of the screen and you're as good as toast. Say hi to RJ for me when you get there.

SDShad (re: making a deal with Santa): Hmmm.... I'd never thought about it, but since both Santa and Satan are dressed in red, one might confuse the two of them... LOL!

I suppose that selling your soul to Santa means you'll be spending eternity in his workshop, freezing at the North Pole, making toys without end, surrounded by annoying little elves, listening to piped-in Christmas music all year every year... kinda sounds like hell to me!
