I can’t resist…

An oldie, but a goody that just “might” come true on Sunday…

A Cajun died and went to hell. The devil assigned him the usual punishment…put him in the mass pit where the heat was melting others. The devil came back later surprised to find the Cajun just sitting around, not even misting, much less sweating. “How come you’re not so much as sweating here where everyone else is screaming for relief from the heat?”

The Cajun laughed and said, “Man, I was raised in the bayous of Sout Looziana. Dis ain’t nothin’ but May in Morgan City to me!”

The devil decided to really put the Cajun through it. He put him in a sealed-off cave in the pit with open blazes and four extra furnaces blasting. When he came back, days later, the Cajun was sitting pretty, had barely begun to bead up with sweat. The devil was outraged.

“How is this possible? You should be melted to a shrieking puddle in these conditions!”

The Cajun laughed even harder than before. “Hey man! I done tole you. I was raised in Sout Looziana. You tink dis is heat? Dis ain’t nothin’ but August in Cow Island!”

So the devil thought, ‘Alright, a little reverse ought to do the trick.’ He put the Cajun into a corner of hell where no heat ever reached. It was freezing and to add to the Cajun’s misery, he added massive icebergs and blasting frozen air. When he returned, the Cajun was shivering, ice hung from every part of him but he was grinning like it was Christmas.

Exasperated, the devil asked “HOW!? How is it possible? You’re impervious to heat and here you sit in conditions you can’t be used to…freezing cold and yet you’re happier than if you were in heaven. WHY?”

The Cajun kept grinning and asked, “Don’t dis mean de Saints won da Super Bowl?”

GEAUX Saints!!! 🙂 (especially since my Cowboys got beat)…

  2. Granny and I started our journey together in Houma and still carry the love of life on the bayou. For the coon-asses, “ain’ts”, and others we left behind, we wish only the best. The time has come.

  5. I continue observing the frenzy and bloodlust that has overtaken this tribe’s homeland as it prepares for the ritual combat. The archaic ritual phrases of “Who Dat?” and “Geaux Saints!” are used as greetings, farewells, exclamation, and invective as the natives work themselves into a rising storm of excitement and mark all of their shelters, transport, and bodies with black and gold.

    Soon, it shall be decided – I hope that on the killing field, our champions reign supreme and peace can come to this land for another year, marked by the prosperity of the shining silver totem.
