Church of the Good Earth 1963 and Beyond

Yeah. It's pretty intense. I like it. I happened to catch it on a day when they were showing a 5 part marathon of the series. I drowned myself in it. Hours of it.

Love to you two guys.

​

Man Get's Selected To Be A Judge At A Chili Cook-Off. This Is Hilarious.


If you can read this whole story without laughing, then there's no hope for you. I was crying by the end. This is an actual account as relayed to paramedics at a chili cook-off in New Mexico.
"Recently, I was honored to be selected as a judge at a chili cook-off. The original person called in sick at the last moment and I happened to be standing there at the judge's table, asking for directions to the Coors Light truck, when the call came in... I was assured by the other two judges (Native New Mexicans) that the chili wouldn't be all that spicy; and, besides, they told me I could have free beer during the tasting, so I accepted and became Judge 3."
Here are the scorecard notes from the event:

CHILI # 1 - MIKE'S MANIAC MONSTER CHILI
Judge # 1 -- A little too heavy on the tomato. Amusing kick.
Judge # 2 -- Nice, smooth tomato flavor. Very mild.
Judge # 3 (Frank) -- Holy crap, what the hell is this stuff? You could remove dried paint from your driveway. Took me two beers to put the flames out. I hope that's the worst one. These New Mexicans are crazy.

CHILI # 2 - EL RANCHO'S AFTERBURNER CHILI
Judge # 1 -- Smoky, with a hint of pork. Slight jalapeno tang.
Judge # 2 -- Exciting BBQ flavor, needs more peppers to be taken seriously.
Judge # 3 -- Keep this out of the reach of children. I'm not sure what I'm supposed to taste besides pain. I had to wave off two people who wanted to give me the Heimlich maneuver. They had to rush in more beer when they saw the look on my face.
CHILI # 3 - ALFREDO'S FAMOUS BURN DOWN THE BARN CHILI
Judge # 1 -- Excellent firehouse chili. Great kick.
Judge # 2 -- A bit salty, good use of peppers.
Judge # 3 -- Call the EPA. I've located a uranium spill. My nose feels like I have been snorting Drano. Everyone knows the routine by now. Get me more beer before I ignite. Barmaid pounded me on the back, now my backbone is in the front part of my chest. I'm getting red-faced from all of the beer.

CHILI # 4=2 0- BUBBA'S BLACK MAGIC
Judge # 1 -- Black bean chili with almost no spice. Disappointing.
Judge # 2 -- Hint of lime in the black beans. Good side dish for fish or other mild foods, not much of a chili.
Judge # 3 -- I felt something scraping across my tongue, but was unable to taste it. Is it possible to burn out taste buds? Sally, the beer maid, was standing behind me with fresh refills. This 300 lb. Woman is starting to look HOT ... Just like this nuclear waste I'm eating! Is chili an aphrodisiac?

CHILI # 5 - LISA'S LEGAL LIP REMOVER
Judge # 1 -- Meaty, strong chili. Jalapeno peppers freshly ground, adding considerable kick. Very impressive.
Judge # 2 -- Chili using shredded beef, could use more tomato. Must admit the jalapeno peppers make a strong statement.
Judge # 3 -- My ears are ringing, sweat is pouring off my forehead and I can no longer focus my eyes. I farted, and four people behind me needed paramedics. The contestant seemed offended when I told her that her chili had given me brain damage. Sally saved my tongue from bleeding by pouring beer directly on it from the pitcher. I wonder if I'm burning my lips off. It really ticks me off that the other judges asked me to stop screaming.

CHILI # 6 - VARGA'S VERY VEGETARIAN VARIETY
Judge # 1 -- Thin yet bold vegetarian variety chili. Good balance of spices and peppers.
Judge # 2 -- The best yet. Aggressive use of peppers, onions, garlic. Superb.
Judge # 3 -- My intestines are now a straight pipe filled with gaseous, sulfuric flames. I crapped on myself when I farted, and I'm worried it will eat through the chair. No one seems inclined to stand behind me except that Sally. Can't feel my lips anymore. I need to wipe my butt with a snow cone.
CHILI # 7 - SUSAN'S SCREAMING SENSATION CHILI
Judge # 1 -- A mediocre chili with too much reliance on canned peppers.
Judge # 2 -- Ho hum, tastes as if the chef literally threw in a can of chili peppers at the last moment **I should take note that I am worried about Judge #3. He appears to be in a bit of distress as he is cursing uncontrollably.
Judge # 3 -- You could put a grenade in my mouth, pull the pin, and I wouldn't feel a thing. I've lost sight in one eye, and the world sounds like it is made of rushing water. My shirt is covered with chili, which slid unnoticed out of my mouth. My pants are full of lava to match my shirt. At least during the autopsy, they'll know what killed me. I've decided to stop breathing. It's too painful. I'm not getting any oxygen anyway. If I need air, I'll just suck it in through the 4-inch hole in my stomach.

CHILI # 8 - BIG TOM'S TOENAIL CURLING CHILI
Judge # 1 -- The perfect ending, this is a nice blend chili. Not too bold but spicy enough to declare its existence.
Judge # 2 -- This final entry is a good, balanced chili. Neither mild nor hot. Sorry to see that most of it was lost when Judge #3 farted, passed out, fell over and pulled the chili pot down on top of himself. Not sure if he's going to make it. Poor fella, wonder how he'd have reacted to really hot chili?
Judge # 3 -- No report.

 

I GIVE UP.. I'm out.. tired of talking to myself.. it's been fun..

 

Don't leave yet Sis...ya'll got mail.

 

Wow. Touchy.

I've heard the joke before. So, to be polite, I didn't respond. And then I left the state for one week. No access to a computer. Sorry.

Anyhow, posting a joke is not what I would call taking. If anything, I have been taking and nobody has been responding to me. Look at the pages. And I'm still here.

---------------------​

So, anyway. As I was saying. How are you, Mary? Hey Ranger, what's up?

Cakes, is it blazing hot in Texas, yet? It's up to 110 here. Is there no more chance of rain? Were you able to get any corn in? Or any of the other stuff that you listed? I am kind of worried about you guys. Are you going to come up short? I worry. And how are you feeling?

Not much new here. Doctor says that I'm pretty OK. I'm back to the Gastro I. doctor. (G. I.) He's sending me to get a CAT scan first, before I have the starve and do the Scope thing. Need to see my skin doctor. (cancer checks) Others. Need to see eye Doc. Had x-rays done. And then back to my main doctor after there is more information for him from the other doctors.

My Lady lost her largest income source client but has also picked up a new client with some good potential for growth. Way less work and nickles for me. P. broke.

Went to So Cal for 6 days to see my people. My mom and step dad are in a home. Sadly he is way too far gone with dementia. And has no hearing for 20 years and is no longer talking. They are in a nice place but soon he my be too far gone to be able to remain there. Then he would just go to the V.A. (vets) warehouse in L.A. for the really old. And no more visitors there. Sad. Then for my mom, Who Knows?

Ranger? Can we get you back in here typing again? Every other day, maybe? I hope hope hope. Rita says that you're not doing the best. But I say, "Hey, your fingers still work. So, that's no excuse."

So then, Kenny figures that all anybody would need for the Internet is a working brain and a finger. Ahhhh. modern miracles.
We should be hearing from everybody all of the time. Problem solved. Hey, we're totally operational once again. How cool are we?

Love yas.
Kenny

So, what's going on in your part of the planet?

 

Hi Kenny, thank you for the Welcome, and thank you Ranger, for the "Like" of my photography, good on you both.

 

I posted a joke bc I thought maybe someone would respond to it.. but no.. I had been waiting to see bc the last time I posted on the 8th of june there was no response either.. well over the week you were away.

That really sucks for MaryJo. I hope the new client will work into something fantastic. I hope you are well Kenny. Sorry to hear about your step dad it's sad to see then lose themselves.

Mike Bedell called the other day. He is well and says hello.. Ranger called but our connection was not the greatest and we didn't talk long...

The garden is a complete bust..the corn is a waste. If anything does come up it will be fried from the heat of the East Texas sun.

love and roses
