So, an old friend of mine has been deployed for a little while and I heard a joke today that made me think of him and his Louisiana ways (I’m from LA, too). I haven’t heard a good ole’ Boudreaux joke in a while but my dad sent me this one:

Subject: Fw: Boudreaux and Thibodeaux

Two Cajun hunters get a pilot to fly them to Canada to hunt moose.

They bag six. As Boudreaux and Thibodeaux start loading the plane for the return trip, the Pilot says “The plane can only take four of those.”

The two Cajuns object strongly. “Last year we shot six and the pilot let us put them all on board; he had the same plane as yours.”

Reluctantly, the pilot gives in and all six are loaded. However, even with full power, the little plane can’t handle the load and down it goes and crashes in the middle of nowhere.

A few moments later, climbing out of the wreckage, Boudreaux asks Thibodeaux , “Any idea where we are?”
“I think we’re pretty close to where we crashed last year.” says Thibodeaux.

Merry Christmas Mark!
