He grew up in New Orleans and he was the one who mentioned the dolls and pins first, and I agreed. We need some real voodoo.

is a particular kind of voodoo. It in centered around Beaufort and the leader was/is Dr.Buzzard. I grew up knowing quite a bit about it from what my relatives said. I always took it seriously because most of those relatives are all white Christian Protestants who while not believing it, as such, never made fun of it. They never called it out either. It had them spooked in some way.

I may go down to Beaufort soon......

you know I picked up a little voodoo doll when I was in New Orleans about 2 yrs ago. Don't you need a figure that looks like the person, tRump, and Bannon would be my top picks.

You know I wonder if there are people in this craft of voodoo are already doing it???? Is there any DU'ers from the Louisiana area may be they would know??
