We have to put a million gazillion dollars fresh from the taxpayers' pockets into reviving this wonderful city.

Yeah, right.

I can see the head singing in the pot...

Once in Nashville, there was a head found on the side of the train tracks with a note.It said "I ain't got nobody" :)

The perp and victim weren't voodoo practitioners. They just lived near one.

[Gordongekko909]

And why would you cook a head in a pot other than to remove the flesh so it can be sold in the voodoo shop downstairs? A human skull is a popular item, a "must have" if you are into that weirdness, as are other human bones. Why else would he be cooking the flesh off them?

'cause he's nuts? Besides, I know enough voodoo practitioners to know what voodoo is and what it isn't. It is NOT a "cult," and by and large, its practitioners are not violent. At least, they are no more violent than any other group of people.

What voodoo IS is yet another method of separating sucker from money. It's a tourist trap with beads and chanting and mysterious scented oils. It's lots and lots of insanely overpriced merchandise, cold-reading, fortune-telling, harmless fun, psychic network, palm-reading, small-time scam stuff.

No, there are no actual human remains involved. The closest thing to that you'll find is a voodoo priestess who will tell you your future by throwing a bunch of "consecrated" chicken bones (that she likely picked out of her most recent meal from Popeye's) onto a mat with a bunch of zodiac symbols on it, then using the info she got from her cold-read to tell you something she thinks you want to hear. Thank you very much, twenty bucks please.

You want to know what I think about voodoo? It is both feared and respected to a far, far greater extent than it should be. This isn't Islam we're talking about; it's about one step removed from the horoscopes that show up in the Living section of your paper every morning, except a lot more expensive, with a lot more incense, and about as accurate.

Illegalize voodoo? No way. We don't support no nanny-state policies 'round these parts. Someone wants to be stupid, that's their business.

Here's a picture of the couple.

Do you mean the people who died?

Here's a story that was done on the couple post Katrina. They rode the storm out in the city.

A cannibal goes into a restaraount and says, "Waiter, there's a fly in my soup."

The waiter says, "Damn it! I told the cook to take the appetizer's pants off beforehand!"

[Gordongekko909]

Yeah, but as it turns out, I don't know them.

[rightwingintelligentsia]

How did you find this out? The article in the original post doesn't identify the couple.

[perfect stranger]

I would fully expect to eventually cut somebody up and cook them then kill myself.

Don't click this link while eating any type of snack or meal.

"How did you find this out? The article in the original post doesn't identify the couple."

I live in Gretna, right across the bridge from New Orleans. As you might guess this story is all over the news, both on television and the New Orleans Internet news.

Anyone feel like there's a sudden surge of demons running rampant among us? Seems everytime I look at the news, as rare as it is, I'm compelled to draw back aghast and say "Monster!" to some hideous story like this.

These people cross the boundry between humane and become something else.

Demons among us.

People in NO do love to cook. But she is sort of stringy looking. I guess that is why he decided she would make a nice stew.

But, he looks like he would be good just sauteeed up with some onions and peppers, a little Tabasco and several cans of Rotel tomatoes and some more spices, served on a little bed of rice. Voila!! An e'touffee. Although it might be a little greasier than intended. But for that you can add a nice dry bread. And don't forget the andouille sausage!!!

Bon appetit!

Cajungirl,

You are an @ss. I'm glad the Moderator didn't remove your post, you're now eligible for a Freeper Decade-Class Jerk award.

Pathetic retard New Orleanian losers (like you) are the reason I left that corrupt cesspool twenty years ago, after a twenty-year sojourn that lasted 19.9999 years too long.

I truly hope that NOTHING was lost in this communication, my pathetic armpit NOLa Camp-Street dancing girl ...

Ummmm,,,I don't live in NO. Did someone harsh your buzz or something?

Hmmmm, one of those progressive dinners without ever leaving home.

Get a hair-lip, Napoleon (Patton, whatever).

C.G. may have gone a bit overboard with the Rotel tomatoes but I see no reason for her to be abused in this fashion. And her recipe is for the killer , I believe.

Now slide down off that high horse and go running to whine at the moderater. We'll wait for you here.
