>>>>>[About those Voudoun items you have in your possession, I would be
extremely interested in seeing them, possibly in purchasing them from
you. I'd like to get together sometime soon for that purpose. Not
tomorrow, though. I'm going to be a bit... busy.

For your info, though, I was born and raised south of New Orleans, but
I've lived here for a while. And there's at least 2 others like me here
in Seattle, one of which is a reasonably good friend and contact. But
you're right, we're a long way from our roots. Finding good gear costs a
lot more here than it would down south....

I don't smoke, though. Well, Ghedi does from time to time, and Samedi
smokes all the time, but I don't. 'Course, they're using my lungs at the
time.]<<<<<

>>>>>[My dear lady, you are more than welcome to inspect the items I
have in my possession. Seeing as you are going to be busy for a while,
and I too have something that must be done in the next few hours, would
13:00hrs, in the Space Needle be suitable for you? Or is daylight a
problem for you? If so, I can reschedule for 23:00, same place.


I have a private booth in the restaurant, I am quite happy to allow you
to inspect the goods there, and allow you to take away what is
interesting to you for inspection at your leisure. Payment, I will
leave at your discretion. If you can move the other items through your
business, then you may have all I possess.


As I said, I have no knowledge regarding the items in question, other
than the previous owner considered them items of some considerable
power, and held them in high esteem for his conjuring. I believe he
followed Legba and Ghede primarily, though that may be an incorrect
assumption.


I appreciate that you are far from home. I too am a long way from my
homeland. I have spent time in New Orleans, and found Bienville Street
of particular interest, though the best food was to be had in the French
Quarter. I lived in the Garden District for two years, and even now, I
miss the place.


I will await you at the Needle. Looking forward to doing business]<<<<<
