You know the sex is hot when it starts a fatal fire.
It’s even hotter, as a news item, when the fire is caused by a voodoo sex ritual.
The New York Post, which digs this sort of thing up regularly, said a woman visited the apartment building and paid a man $300 to perform a voodoo ceremony to bring her good luck. After the ceremony they decided to have sex.
The fire was sparked after the couple knocked over the candles that were arranged on the floor around the bed, igniting the bed linens and clothes on the floor, the Post article said.
Mary Feagin, 62, who was not participating in the ritual, died in the fire.
“Hopefully others will learn from this tragedy,” said NYC Fire Commissioner Sal Cassano.
Like don’t mix sex and voodoo?

Sad that you couldn’t comprehend what is written. Please re-read the article again. The article stated that Ms. Feagin resided in the apt. complex: not the participant.

You silly Christians can say that’s someone’s soul is hell, a very offensive thing to say, but then your feelings get hurt when someone says how stupid your religion is as well… LOL Oh the irony!

I don’t understand why the AJC allows viewer comments on this silly story but does not allow viewers to comment on serious stories that affect each of us.

People that believe in Voodoo aren’t running around claiming you are going to their version of hell, so why do you think your religion is going to affect them? Jews don’t insist that the rest of the world doesn’t eat pork, but why do the Baptists want us not to be able to buy alcohol on Sunday ? I think we need “Freedom from Religion “

ewwwww: you’re a pathetic fool. Hotness increases with age. The great thing about getting older is that you realize that young people don’t know or have squat when it comes to hotness. I’m 50. We laugh at twenty somethings! You don’t even BEGIN to approach hotness until you’re thirty five. Forties is prime time, 50 and beyond is just damn awesome! You can’t know these things, but if you’re lucky enough to find a b*tch that’ll put out for your baby bit, more power to you.
And that smell you’re talkin about? It’s called stank, and it’s coming from your own crotch.
