Question? Can liberals eat blessed shrimp? Isn’t there some clause in our living Constitution that requires separation of church and shrimp that travel in interstate commerce? I’m sure a judge could find it./sarc maybe not

will file past the Cadillac “Authentic Mexican Restaurant”

Another "great" place to indulge in some of TF's crappy "Sysco Palace" food.

Yours is earlier than ours!

This is a huge event locally. Loads of family fun and outstanding food.

The countdown to the 80th Annual Blessing of the Fleet and Shrimp Festival has begun!

Join us June 5, 6, and 7, 2009, when we celebrate this landmark anniversary of a beloved Biloxi tradition.

Down around Biloxi
Pretty girls are dancin' in the sea
They all look like sisters in the ocean
The boy will fill his pail with salty water
And the storms will blow from off towards New Orleans

Sun shines on Biloxi
Air is filled with vapors from the sea
Boy will dig a pool beside the ocean
He sees creatures from his dream underwater
And the sun will set from off towards New Orleans

Stars can see Biloxi
Stars can find their faces in the sea
We are walking down beside the ocean
We are splashing naked in the water
And the sky is red from off towards New Orleans
And the sky is red from off towards New Orleans

Down around Biloxi
Pretty girls are swimming in the sea
They all look like sisters in the ocean
The boy will fill his pail with salty water
And the storms will blow from off toward New Orleans

...and the sky is red, off towards New Orleans...

Right now, jumbos are running about $3 a pound off the boat. There is a very nice Vietnamese gentleman I buy from regularly.

I love them sauteed' in butter (REAL butter) with onions and garlic. I then make a thick sauce with the drippings. Put 'em next to a grilled sirloin, a dob of angel hair and some steamed asparagus; you have meal fit for a king.

Then, since I live alone, I EAT THE WHOLE DAMN THING!!
