Marie Laveau on The New $10

The treasury is redesigning the $10 bill and they have decided to put a woman on it.
I believe they should use Marie Laveau, the 19th century Vodou priestess who nursed the sick & ministered the criminals in jail and at the gallows.
She also had a good deal of influence on the rich & powerful for whom she worked as a hairdresser.
Back me up on this my minions!

Slummin' in the Sketchbook

The Windbag's Veve

Wow, Cincinnati City Council candidate Charlie Winburn is having one heckuva week. The Fishwrap reports The Windbag's outing as a "Voo-Do" practicing "homo-sexual" and City Bleat reports on his practice of anointing with cash and using church bouncers.
whatever.....
Being a nice guy, I designed a veve for the dude. yeah, he's not a Loa, but the way he's going he is sure to make the grade.
Now, what saint to associate him with.......
St Stephen ?
