One day, while sitting on his porch, Jean-Claude saw his friend, Pierre , paddling his pirogue down the bayou:
"Hey Pierre, whachoo got deah?"
"Duck-tape!"
Pierre shouted back.
"What you gon' do with dat duck-tape?"
asked Jean-claude.
"I'm gonna catch me some ducks!"
Jean-Claude of course thought Pierre was crazy and watched Pierre continue out into the bayou.
Not long after, Pierre returned with three plump ducks in his pirogue.
The next day Jean-Claude saw Pierre again, paddling down the bayou.
"Hey Pierre! Whachoo got deah?" shouted Jean-Claude.
"Nutra-Sweet!"
"Wachoo 'gon do wit alla dat Nutra-Sweet?"
"I'm gon git me a nutria."
Jean-Claude was incredulous, but interested this time.
"You crazy, you can't catch no nutria wit no Nutra-sweet!
Pierre ignored him and continued out into the bayou.
Jean-Claude was speechless when Pierre returned with a fat nutria in his pirogue.
The next day Jean-Claude again spied Pierre paddling out into the bayou in his pirogue.
"Heyy Pierre! Whatchoo got in deah?"
"Pussywillow!" Pierre shouted back.
"HOLD ON, LEMME GET MY HAT!"
