Fuh

I started with a long cooked bone broth. I literally purchased bones with no meat on them (gnashing my teeth). I jimmied the marrow out of the bones and gave the bones to my dog; it's a big bone and she looks ridiculous. I seasoned my broth with red wine, garlic, onions, five spice, hoisin sauce, soy sauce, and sugar till I liked it. I don't know if this is the way, but I liked it.

In a giant, empty bowl, I added cooked rice noodles, bean sprouts, fresh basil, cilantro, jalapenos, and slices of sirloin cooked medium. Then I ladled that bone broth over the top...like three or four cups of it. Jesus H Phoking Crenshaw. I liked it.

Now, I know it's "pho" but phonics doesn't work on pho--so fuh. What's this? You disagree? Well phok yourself.

Cajun Way Restaurant

Most people don't know this restaurant by its original name, Cajun Way Restaurant. I didn't know its real name till I was in my late teens. That's because I grew up here, and the locals know this place as The Boudin King--clearly--it's printed right on top of the building. Years ago I bought a cookbook from the Boudin King himself, Ellis Cormier. And there, printed right on the cover was Cajun Way Restaurant. I was like, "what?" and he was all, "yeah" and I was like, "I had no idea!" and he was all, "word". He signed it for me and I left town; I literally moved away. Nowadays, the only reason I have to stop in Jennings is to visit The Boudin King...and The Rocket.

 

 

Granted, this is an outright shit painting, there are some things I do like about it. The reference photo was taken in a blazing sun and the top of the building is sun-bleached and faded, so you can only really see "Boudin King" letters by the shadows they cast. And those porch lights actually appear to be on...which they always are in real life.

Old Ben Kenobi

 

"Help me Obi-Wan Kenobi. You’re my only hope.” This is what starts the journey of young Skywalker. And how does Luke respond?

“I wonder if she means old Ben Kenobi?” 

I wonder too. I mean what are the odds that she’s looking for a Kenobi, and you know exactly one Kenobi? She could have narrowed it down “...he’s about five foot seven, gray hair, wears and old brown tunic, carries a light saber that sort of looks like a neon dick, can get you into any club in the galaxy with the wave of a hand, can spot moon-shaped space stations from 75,000 miles away, has suicidal tendencies...”

“I wonder if she means old Ben Kenobi?” Well I wonder if she means Old Ben Rice? or old Ben Dover? Or OldBen/GYN Kenobi?         

Luke Skywalker must be the dumbest character on the planet; the Kellie Pickler of Tatooine.. “I wonder if she means old Ben Kenobi?” Is Kenobi on Tatooine like Chins in China?

Fuck sake. Of course she means old Ben Kenobi, you womp rat!

It's old, but slightly modernized.
It's a classic!

Punch His Beard Off

 

This cartoon was inspired by this video. I am impressed with this kid on so many levels, him in his tiny fucking sweater and tie.

“I’ll punch his beard off!”

Not only is the kid going to punch his beard off, a task that takes a wild imagination to even conceive, but he’s decided he’s going to use an upper cut to do it. He’s got a name for the strike he’s going to use to deface Santa. I feel like if England ever wanted to have a strong leader again, you could be looking at the next Prime Minister in this video, which would probably make a compelling campaign clip.
