Climate denial. Miz t. at Walgreen.

She's in line to pick up a prescription.
We're in coastal (hurricane prone) Alabama.
Guy in front of her says (more of less) "I want to get back to Chicago as soon as I can. (We get a lot of snowbirds). These hurricanes scare the hell out of me. Global warming."

The 'lady' in line behind Miz t. said "Global warming is a hoax."
The man looked at her.
"Are you serious?"
"Yes, it's a hoax."
Miz t. "When is the last time you saw three hurricanes in the south Atlantic or the Caribbean at the same time?"
'Lady'...nothing.
Miz t. as she picked up my prescription and walked out "Only idiots believe that."

Whoa!
Me: "Were you bigger than she?"
Miz t. "Yeah, by about a head. She was about 10 years younger."
Miz t. is 72.
"So you think you could have taken her if it came to a throw down?"
"Maybe, she had big hair. I could have gotten a grip."

Did I mention that I love this woman?
Cause I do.

FULL blooded Cajun, both sides.
Daddy from NOLA, momma from Bell City, LA.
If you talk to her right, she can throw a spell on ya'.

Cajun Voo-Doo Witchy Woman.

48 years together and she still scares me sometimes.

She was born in a birth suit
The doctor slapped her behind
He said you're gonna be special
Hey you're gonna be fine

AND TWO big ass washtubs full of oysters that me and Miz. t's dad hauled up off the bottom of Bastrop Bayou that morning.

FEAST!
Some raw, some fried and some in gumbo.
Them was the days.

Thanks.
