Do they still sell Rabbit’s feet? Now I’ve gotta go check…
They do! Not that expensive. Hmmm… How to gross out some great nieces and great nephews?
I had a “lucky” rabbit’s foot when I was a kid, but even then I don’t think I actually believed it’d bring me good luck. Thinking about it now, it seems like an incredibly weird and freaky concept.
Aw, c’mon John, you mean carrying around various body parts of presumably deceased animals is freaky? I think my local voodoo practitioner might have something to say about that. (LOL!)
I think it’s very freaky. (Also sorta funny.) But don’t tell your voodoo practitioner I said that!!!
Yup. a thing in Puerto Rico, too. What’s weird is that they were dyed: my Mom color-coded things that belonged to each of her three boys- we chose one color and had to stick to it! –so mine was green. My two kid brothers had red and blue ones!
Fascinating. I’ve never heard of a parent doing that before, but I can see the appeal and how it’d make things way easier. The closest I can think of that is from my days writing Disney comics. Huey (red), Dewey (blue), and Louie (green) always wore identical clothes, but always had the same, separate colors.
