Default cremation fo fishermen

After my squaw told jeff my roommate that if I lost my credit card during
western clave that he could have all my stuff if he would just send my ashes
home.
therefore i thought youall might enjoy this

TREE CAJUNS


One day, while fishing under the I-10 bridge in The Atchafalaya Basin,
Boudreaux made a confession.
"We all been friends for tirty year and been tru a lot. I never
told ya'll dis befo 'cause I don't wanna ruin our friendship, but I'm
gay."

Fontenot looked over at Thibodeaux and said, "We kinda figured dat out a
while back, but wadn't gonna say nuttin' 'cause we din't wanna embarrass
you".

Boudreaux thanked them for their understanding and continued, "Da reason
I'm tollin' ya'll dis is 'cause I got AIDS and I got six munt to liv. Ya'll
da only family I got lef and I want ya'll to promise me dat yall wont let
dem bary me. I'm scared of dem caskets and I wanna be cremate. Den, I want
ya'll to trow my ashes from dat bridge up dair
into dis swamp where we've spent so much time together."

Fontenot and Thibodeaux wiped back a few tears,

then agreed to do what their friend had asked.

Sho' nough, six munts later Beoudreaux died, and they were standin on the
bridge with the ashes. Fontenot was about to trow dem out when Thibodeaux
stop him, "Wait, you gotta say sumtin," he said.

"I donno what to say. I never waz much bout goin' to church,"
Fontenot admitted.

Thibodeaux, he scratch his head, "Just say somtin'....anyting .......
make it rhyme."

Fontenot, he tought about it a while and started trowin' dem ashes out
over da swamp and say,
"Ashes to ashes, Dus to dus, if you liked women,

you'd be here wit us."
