Discerned Believer,
La sauce piquante a cocodrie est bonne et tres delicieuse! J'aime aller a Lafayette et Breaux Bridge (tu connais Muluate's a Breaux Bridge?). Tu parles Cajin? Ou ce-que tu habites---en Louisiane?

This is the last time a burmese python is going to take a holiday in the Everglades!

BTW Do not eat aligators whole! Aligator reflux is a killer!

Ever heard of the eyes being bigger than the stomach? This is a classic example... be careful when you're standing at an all-you-can-eat buffet!
