Carlos Zarate
Wilfredo Gomez

Were these two featherweights of the '70s?

[barry]

Zarate wasn't, close though, Gomez was a featherweight of the jr. variety!

Add Jose Torres and Clemente Sanchez to the list. Jose's brother Sal wasn't too shabby of a banger either.

Welcome back Barry, hope your health issues are sorted soon

[Tantum]

Damnit, my voodoo doll must be broken...

I mean... Hey Barry, welcome back! 8)

[Grimm]

Man I was wondering where you were Dj Qualls.

Anyway Gomez definitely was a bomber.

[barry]

Thanks guys!

Tantum---I use a hoodoo reverse-curse that I picked up in Haiti many years ago! It nullifies any bad juju sent my way!

[Tantum]

Aww shit man, that ruins my fun...

Guess I better finish making my Broncano voodoo doll.

[barry]

To make the "juju" more powerful and almost impossible to counter you need to toss in four pinchings of grave-dust, not the typical three pinching, but if you want to make the curse invincible to other magics you have to double-up on all the ingredients of the "original" curse that is shown in "Voodoo 101: The Experienced Juju Artist." Of course it is just semantics, but some people prefer grounded-up crocodile teeth as opposed to grounded-up alligator...I guess it all depends on what country you live in.

[Ezzard]

Good to hear from you again, Barry. Hope you've recovered now...

[Bladder]

Welcome back Baz

Let's hope you are still as easy to wind-up as you always were

[barry]

Bladder/?---You never got to me...you just wasted my time as well as ruined several threads, but now it seems that we have an ignore feature on this board, so nice knowing you!

[Bladder]

Baz, I'll take that as a yes then.

For those not in the know ...... I had a word with Shep who gave Baz a temporary ban from this forum. He's now back on a behaviour warning.

[pound per pound]

Welcome back Barry. We know your a big fan. You must have really been sick, becasue talking boxing is on your short list of favorite things to do.

[JC]
