Flashermac Posted November 17, 2008 Report Share Posted November 17, 2008 YOU DON'T KNOW JAMBALAYA! It's Louisiana's answer to paella and a gift of the gods. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jambalaya p.s. Love to see this video. The guy was a medic in my battalion, and I vaguely recall him. http://www.cinesmith.net/warwithin/warwithin_dirstate.htm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flashermac Posted November 17, 2008 Report Share Posted November 17, 2008 Cajuns are good folks. You find them in south Louisiana. I had a Cajun friend - WWII vet, a really nice fellow. When his infantry unit was in France, he got picked to be the colonel's interpreter. He told me the French were fascinated at the archaic words he used. When his regiment crossed into Germany, he was ordered to return to his platoon. They didn't need his Froglais any more. He wasn't very happy about becoming a rifleman again.

rogueyam Posted November 17, 2008 Report Share Posted November 17, 2008 You admit you have not and will not serve. False. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpiceMan Posted November 17, 2008 Report Share Posted November 17, 2008 You have repeatedly been challenged on your military service record and have consistantly refused to give any information. One can only assume that you are ashamed of your lack of service. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

drogon Posted November 20, 2008 Report Share Posted November 20, 2008 Sayjann, could you describe the taste please? Guess I will have to accept travelling to the USA once more (when their stupid foreign immigration will be more relaxed) because I still have to visit Louisiana..

Flashermac Posted November 20, 2008 Report Share Posted November 20, 2008 Louisiana is officially bilingual. Don't expect many folks to speak French well though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
