Okay, I'm currently on a diet and am really hungry.
Great prose but lousy theology....
One of the advantages of learning about Cajun cuisine in my younger days.
Please note also that our resident chefs here on FR can (and, I've no doubt, would) do so also, probably making even finer meals than I would serve. $20?? For $20 a day (with real cooks, not the clowns serving food in prisons), you can easily eat like a king.
Agreed.
Yet....
‘Beware of those who strain at a gnat, and swallow a camel.’
Maybe we could figure out a way to put the murderer into an artificial uterus, and then get a giant vacuum, forceps, and other tools used for abortions, and put the murderer to death in an abortion. The leftists couldn't object to that!

Prof,
With all due respect, your dog gave nothing but loyalty and joy.
It is a mistake to equate putting a faithful canine friend down for medical cause with executing a murderer.

I daresay you could do so with even less money than that.
I doubt this convict is one of them, but there are people who require impossibly expensive ingredients, elaborately prepared or they'd rather just not eat at all.
I've had Cajun food and it's great! Usually not very expensive, either. And very filling!
And it’s ironic, isn’t it? The liberals have no objection to brutally killing a half-born baby, but a convicted murderer feels pain while being executed, and something must be done!
That was my thoughts...about to be executed but he still puts others first!
The pizza still doesn’t make up for the brutal murder.
Their restaurant is open 24/7. I can go there at 3 AM, order up steak and eggs, a buttered Belgian waffle with plenty of hot maple syrup and a bottomless cup of strong coffee. They also make a killer Monte Cristo triple-decker, dusted with powdered sugar and served up with strawberry jam and sour cream. I usually order hot chocolate to wash that down. Since most of their patrons are Chinese, they have a full Chinese menu also. My favorite is the creamy pineapple and prawns, but sometimes I just order the jumbo platter of deep-fried oysters with lemon wedges and extra tartare sauce. OooooWeee! Also, I can smoke all I want right in my seat, not banished to the chilly outdoors. Gotta love those Indians!
Fried oysters? Okay as a snack, maybe, but surely raw is the only civilized option for dinner!
Oh, by the way, good luck with your diet! ;-)
Thanks.
But, we talkin' cookin', and de Emperor don' got some nothin' on de Cajun, I tell you. Mon cher, we gon' start w one scored (that's cut thru to de the skin) big hamhock, then add some bay leaf an' some cayenne, sometime some lil salt and fresh black, cook dat all down an' make some good pork stock, 'bout 40 minut. 3-quart saucepan, rat?
While we waitin' on dat, we gonna cook some good bacon over low heat, render all de good oil. Then, same big skillet, we gonna sear some rib side pork loin in dot oil (cut into bite-size), spice it w/a little cayennem, an' set dot aside too, mo' better.
Then, we take was left of dot good bacon oil, add a lil mo' if we need, an' in a big pot make de roux, lil white flour at a time, stir, stir, stir. 'Bout 25 minut (Emeril says ''2 beers'', dot's crap...25 minut is at least 3 beer on de bayou), de roux become chocolat, dot color, eh, boo.
Den we chop de onion, de celerie, de bell pepper, 2 to 1 to 1, cook dem down 4 minut in de roux, dey gon' suck dot roux up lak a politician suckin' money, cher, so don' take no phone calls rat den. Add about 10 clove of de garlic, goodan chop, cook dot some more 4 minut.
Now, we chop up some good Andouille sausage, you bet, pour the hamhock stock into de big pot, add de sausage and BOIL for 4-5 minut, we wan' dot good Andouille oil to form a skim grease. We lower de heat, add back de bacon and pork loin...and de secret spice mix (lil cayenne, fresh crack black, whole lotta cumin and thyme, 15-20 fine fine chop clove de garlic...maybe a lil gumbo file <<-- dot's accent grave on de file, cher, rat?)
Den we drop de heat, cover 10-15 minut while we make de rice.
You don' eat no bettah yo' whole life, I gar-on-tee!
(With any apologies due to my old tutor, Louis d'Auberge Messarveaux...what a great chap and a WONDERFUL cook!)
My heart goes out to you. Big time.
Way too much cholesterol!
I’m sorry, I’ve had to make the same decision in the past and it’s heart wrenching.
>>On August 5, 1981 in Memphis, Philip Workman went into a Wendy’s restaurant and committed robbery with a .45 caliber semi-automatic pistol. What happened next remains somewhat of a mystery. Philip Workman doesn’t remember very well, as he was under the influence of drugs that night. His account of events follows.<<
A cop was killed during the robbery. The defense has a lot of arguments but they don’t dispute he was committing an armed robbery during which a cop got killed.
That’s enough.
